Alright, here we go. So, you know how Flappy Bird blew up like crazy ages ago? I swear, it feels like it was all anyone talked about back then. Anyway, it disappeared, poof, just like that. But guess what? It’s back! Yup, more than a decade later. You can thank the Epic Games Store (yeah, they do Android too, who knew?). But funny thing, there’s no weird crypto stuff this time around—bet you weren’t expecting that twist.
So, apparently, it’s all about ads and those silly in-app buys now. Basically, you can jazz up your little bird with, wait for it, cosmetic helmets. Seriously, helmets! Really makes you wonder about those brainstorming sessions. But hey, no Web3 nonsense. They made sure to shout about that in bold letters or, well, maybe just a news release. Whatever.
Here’s the kicker: the folks who’ve got the rights to Flappy Bird initially wanted to make it some kind of crypto playground—honestly, not sure what half those words mean, but yeah, they dreamed big. Something about making it a blockchain love child. That attempt on Telegram? Didn’t exactly soar. Heh, get it?
And if you’re one of those who got hooked, they’re promising a bunch of new stuff until 2025. New worlds and quirky characters – can’t imagine what those would look like but hey, surprise me.
Oh, and Dong Nguyen? The guy behind the original madness? He’s not even in on this. Dude apparently just moved on. Didn’t sell the trademark to the Foundation that’s reviving it either. Another day, another weird chapter in Flappy history. Can’t decide if that’s poetic or just plain bizarre. Anyway! Flap on. Or not. Your call.
