I can’t take it anymore – Flappy Bird to be removed

The somewhat reclusive developer of the hit game Flappy Bird has announced that he “cannot take this anymore” and will be removing the game from app stores in 22 hours, as of 2:02 PM EST today.

Dong Nguyen explained on his Twitter account that the takedown isn’t due to any legal reasons, and that he won’t be selling the rights to the game.

Odd since he is according to the Verge making $50,000 a day from the adverts.

This story is breaking all over the tech world giving even more publicity.

  1. I am totally flummoxed by this game….
    I appreciate I do not play games so am not the ideal candidate for understanding reason or logic but I fail to fathom why this game has captivated so many.
    It’s graphics are poor at best, it’s game plot is very linear (you either hit or miss a wall) and there is nothing that deviates from the sole purpose of ‘tap’ ‘tap’ ‘tap’!

    And now this…… Has the world gone mad?
