Arrkham 291 Posted February 8, 2014 Anybody played that Flappy Bird game? Well its being removed by the creator for no reason in about 18 hours. And the guy is making 50,000 a day off this little game. Here is an article about it: http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/02/08/flappy-bird-creator-to-take-game-down-tomorrow?utm_campaign=fbposts&utm_source=facebook Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ichalvl 1752 Posted February 8, 2014 No reason? He's a small indie developer that got consumed by the entire world. Everyone, EVERYONE, is playing Flappy bird. People are tweeting about it, facebooking about it, so on and so forth. It's a lot of stress. Imagine if everyone in the world started talking about sG servers, everyone started playing them, and everyone started coming on the forums. The developer didn't ever experience the progression required to withstand such a feedback. Plus, Flappy Bird makes a lot of people really angry and he probably receives 1000 or more threats a day (Of course many of them are fake) which can really wear down one's mental capacities. 3 Acebats, _kyle_ and Rune reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Piero 2272 Posted February 9, 2014 R.I.P Flappy Bird I wonder if it's actually because of the Nintendo thingy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AntyCrix 591 Posted February 9, 2014 (edited) R.I.P Flappy Bird I wonder if it's actually because of the Nintendo thingy Trust me, it is. He wouldn't take the game down solely for the fact that it's popular. Everyone wants to make money and that's a major source of income for him.
