Ten years later and original is coming back. Under the banner of the Flappy Bird Foundation, some dedicated fans acquired the rights to the viral mobile hit in a press release. Flappy Bird It will return to iOS and Android as native mobile apps in 2025. But you will be able to play it elsewhere before then. The team plans to bring the game to other platforms such as desktop and mobile web starting this fall.
The Flappy Bird Foundation has big plans and showed some of them . While keeping the original game design is key, you can also expect new modes, characters, advancements, and multiplayer challenges.
The mix of challenging gameplay and rough art style (including pipes heavily inspired by the Mario games) helped Flappy Bird becomes a sensation. The challenge of tapping the screen to flap a bird’s wings and squeeze the gaps between pipes has captured the imaginations of legions of players — more than 100 million of them, according to the Flappy Bird Foundation.
Flappy Bird It debuted in May 2013, but didn’t explode until the following January. Developer Dong Nguyen soon announced that the game was earning $50,000 a day from advertising. However, Flappy Birdwas the success of for its creator. Nguyen removed it from the App Store and Google Play in February 2014 (although Amazon brought another version to the Fire TV later that year).
“Flappy Bird it’s designed to be played in minutes when you’re comfortable,” he said . “But it has become an addictive product. I think it has become a problem. To solve this problem, it is better to remove it Flappy Bird. It’s gone forever.” Thankfully for fans (but maybe not people still selling old phones with the original game installed), “forever” isn’t necessarily permanent.
