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?

I was surprised that he actually took it off both App stores. I don't really understand his reasoning though.

Truly i am not even sad to see it go :/ like it drove me mad just playing it and it became the main talk and got a bit out of hand around school, but to all those who loved it don't remove it if it works like iFunny lol ;)

Axe I don't see why he would pull his game off of the market because he was makinng 50k a day. Any normal person would've went with it until it ran dry.

It might have been that his game was getting bad reviews or something.


or that he wanted his normal life back? I would have a nervous breakdown too if I saw something I made everywhere I went.
