The original creator of FlappyBird has just pulled it from the Apple and Google play stores...  Good thing is was ported!   ;)
Wait what!!? <_< I understand that he's getting a lot of attention (kinda his fault for using bots) but still... That's just so weird! Maybe it's a publicity stunt, cause pulling the most popular app off of the app store will only get him more publicity.

BTW, you are pro at that game.  My high score was 4 until I Photoshopped it.  XD
Lol, thanks!

I think he just kept receiving hate mail and death threats because the game was considered too simple for topping the Appstore charts and for making money. The fact the game looks similar to Piou Piou and Mario pipes probably didn't help. The extreme hate was a bit uncalled for, though, considering people just had to stop playing.

Yeah, hate mail seems really extreme.I can understand their anger if dong nguyen used bots, but still, it's just an app.

That said, the title looks slightly questionable, since people often forget to put the l in Flappy. Not that it's intentional but that game is an easy target for parodies :P

A kid made it (14 year old I think), so it is understandable that they got stressed out.  Also, its not like they expected it to go viral with the Mario pipes and what not...  In a tweet the night before pulling it, the creator said:
Quote
I am sorry 'Flappy Bird' users, 22 hours from now, I will take 'Flappy Bird' down. I cannot take this anymore.
He is making more, but I doubt that any will become popular again.  D:
You can still get it though.  This is hilarious.

A heart that's full up like a landfill
A job that slowly kills you
Bruises that won't heal

You look so tired unhappy
Bring down the government
They don't, they don't speak for us

I'll take a quiet life
A handshake of carbon monoxide

And no alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
Silent, silent

This is my final fit
My final bellyache

With no alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises please

Such a pretty house
And such a pretty garden

No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises please

Well, unless he changes his Twitter account and deletes the current one, the second he'll release a new game it will inevitably get a crapload of attention, since he has so many followers to begin with. He should probably try to make a more elaborate and original game, though, where he would get less hate mail and feel more proud of his accomplishment.
