Keep Flapping the Bird! and RIP.

"I see that new Iphone you've got there, it would be a shame if it doesn't have a FLAPPY BIRD."

Flap right there, flap around there. And within a short span of time you can hear, people shouting, swearing, and throwing their phones in a graceful way of anger. Yep, this is indeed Flappy Bird. My first impression of the game is like a Super Mario style game with a bird acting as Super Mario himself, but its worse. And Iv'e been seeing lots of Tweets, FB post's about it, and broken phones as well. Well, Super Mario is indeed hard, especially it's earlier versions, but when I first laid my fingers on this game, it made me realize that this game was made by Satan himself (a figure of speech, no offense). Nah, the truth is the game is fun. Once you get the first try, you will continuously ask for another. Just like eating a bag of Cheetos, you wont stop grabin' till the bag is empty. The bag, is the phones battery level.

Me and my friends were suffering from a common disease called boredom, until my friend, Nelson, summoned his magical tool of entertainment, the Ipad. He introduced us the game, and each of us tried it.
One would randomly shout with pain, then pass the Ipad to another, until it reaches me. It's my turn. I took a deep breath, changed my sitting position into a focused one, fixed my hair, and tap'd the retina LCD display of the tablet. I got a score of 1.

4 hours later, I saw my mates, wailing like sea lions, with their smart phones up, playing the most annoying game ever. they compare their pitiful scores with each other, and those things.

The next day though, I got myself the app too. First try on my smartphone was very outstanding. I got a score of 100! I was excited to learn my current rank on flappy birds' leader board. Expecting to reach the top 100, because most of what I see in my Facebook wall are scores of 30, 40, 50 and 75. People are so amazed with it, so I think 100 is Godlike. That is until I saw the high scores all over the world. The score aren't what I expected, except there's a  9,223,372,036,854,776,000. Probably hacked though.

For some good reason, my Flappy Bird app is special. Well, my bird, flies slower than the app you have there. Not that my phone is slow, the game I installed has this 50% reduced speed, making it,well, sorta easier. Other people find it a lot difficult though.

Anyhows, Flappy Birds' leaving the app stores. Although, the reasons are not quite clear why. News say that
according to his Twitter post's, Dong Nguyen, flappy brid creator, will remove F-Birds from app store, because the press are overrating the game's success, and he does not like it. Probably to save smartphones from extinction.

"Squishy birds, here I come!"- says the raging Flappy Bird player, who can't reach a score of 1.
