Watch out Flappy Bird copycats, the original is making a comeback. Developer Dong Nguyen has confirmed with fans on Twitter that he is restoring his hit game to its rightful place in the App Store, although he hasn't given a specific launch date.

 

At the height of its popularity, Flappy Bird was earning more than $50,000 per day in ad revenue. And even since it’s been pulled, the game still earns Nguyen a healthy amount of money thanks to the millions of people still playing FB on their devices.

I can't say the taking Flappy birds down was a popularity stunt but... It was a popularity stunt

Hope I could help!

I don't care. People are going to start freaking out about it, the people who told me that the read he was dead "On an internet article" will be extremely confused, and the entire internet will not shut up about it. It's a fun game, and I play it when I'm bored, but all of this " OMG HEZ TAKIN IT OFF TEH APL STOR", and " DID YOU HER HE KILLD HIMSELF WIT A POTATO" has to end.

Flappy Bird pro scene must be happy.

The stone cannot know why the chisel cleaves it; the iron cannot know why the fire scorches it. When thy life is cleft and scorched, when death and despair leap at thee, beat not thy breast and curse thy evil fate, but thank the Builder for the trials that shape thee.

I can just imagine the creator going to sleep one night and thinking to himself: you know what? Maybe cutting myself off from all that money wasn't such a bright move.

 

lol, i bet the people who paid thousands of dollars for a phone with flappy bird pre installed are not too happy about this.

I'm pretty sure not a single person will be feeling sorry for them.
