Flappy Bird has stopped flapping

4.3
Flappy Bird has officially stopped flapping, it has been removed from both the Apple and Play stores when it appears the developer, Dong Nguyen, has a nervous breakdown over it's success claiming it was "ruining his life".



It is assumed that Dong will NOT be fulfilling his claim of porting Flappy Bird to Windows Phones.

Prior to Dong ceasing his Twitter presence he stated that the attention he had received stemming from his game coupled with the "stress of making $50k a day" were among the reasons he had pulled the game.

How do those who played Flappy Birds feel about this entire ordeal?

HoodieAllenIsGoodOk I really feel for the guy I wish him all the best in the future.
he made himself some good money and he done what he wanted to do so great for him :)


He just wanted to make games, not necessarily money I guess.
He has some good money now. We'll all probably forget about him in a month anyways.

Scared_of_Water "attention", I heard of Flappy Bird a 6 months ago. Only found out this guy made it yesterday.


What do you mean? It was made in May of 2013, but didn't take off until recently.

TTG_iLLuSiionZ He Made Flappy bird because if his passion for making games not for the money, the hate he got has been too much.


Pointless hate as well. Just because you're frustrated at a game doesn't give you a reason to get angry at the developer.
