Well by now everyone must know that Flappy Birds, the widely popular and extremely addictive indie game is no longer on the app store or on Google Play. Shortly after its rise to fame, developer Dong Nguyen removed the game from both platforms. The question on probably everyone's mind is why?? Flappy Bird topped the charts in early 2014 but due to some negative feedback including accusations that elements in his work were too similar to some in the “Super Mario Bros” Dong Nguyen tweeted he would be removing the game. Well that's that isn't it. Flappy Bird is gone and in its wake is a bunch of similar games. But lets be honest, there wasn't anything particularly special about Flappy Birds. Its design was rudimentary and its graphics were okay, but that's how it works, some apps can just go viral. For one thing, Flappy Birds set the trend for the latest string of indie games.
