Flappy Bird returns but now with microtransactions
Flappy Bird returns but now with microtransactions
And the trademarks were sleazily grabbed from the original creator :/
54It isn't the original creator? I saw some advertising elsewhere that heavily implied that it was the same guy.
If it's just some company trying to leech of the success from over a decade ago, including microtransactions, that's beyond pathetic.
7Unfortunately multiple sources seem to agree Dong Nguyen has no involvement, which is consistent with the way he originally shut down Flappy Bird due to people spending too much time on it :(
"The Flappy Bird Foundation said it has acquired the official Flappy Bird trademark from Gametech Holdings LLC, a U.S. company that appears to have wrestled the trademark from Nguyen, as well as the rights for the original game and character from Piou Piou vs. Cactus, the mobile game that supposedly originally inspired the Flappy Bird character."

You either die as a hero, or live long enough to become the villain.
33Or in this case die a hero and then someone pays to desecrate your corpse and reanimate you

You can always download original apk file, without mtx and bloat.
44Also without banner ads? If I recalled correctly the original game has ads which Nguyen had said generated some 10K USD per week for him.

Awesome. The lack of cosmetics for real money was the only thing holding this game back…
27More like "Crappy Bird" right?
