I've heard of the game. I just didn't know the programmer hated his own creation. Thanks for the info. I mean that tweet looks like a troll if it was any other person.

Flappy Bird allegedly was causing problems for MANY people not just because of it's apparently ridiculous difficulty, but also because people said that he stole art assets for use in its creation.

well i downloaded it a few hours ago and played it so it's essentially just like the "helicopter" flashgame which I played in highschool 5 years ago and the pipes are straight out of Mario.

He doesn't want to get sued and is cashing out while he can.
Good move, smart guy, game devs be mad.

Here's the ACTUAL problem:
He was apparently making 50k per DAY from ads from Flappy Birds. For a game which he probably spent less than 20 hours to create. Many people in the indies spend years to create great games and could get earn as much as he did in this short period of time.

He is definitely going to get sued for this. Surely Nintendo is just readying its moves right now.

Are you familiar with Java and/or web development?

Not sure if you are serious or just making a reference I am not familiar with. Either way no, no I am not.

Oh yes. For those of you who have Bravely Default, 2 pieces of advice.
1) Make sure you get all the cut-scenes and Party Chats because you might not get them again.
2) Have a Freelancer Examine stuff all the time. Creatures will go extinct (sort-of) so if you want 100% completion of your Encyclopedia it's best to do it as you play the game.

ugh playing horrid today in league. If I lose another game out of my series I will quit League. NO MORE DIEING PARN.
Grey Knights are awesome simply because of Kaldor Draigo. The man so badass he walks around the warp flipping the chaos god's tables and shit.

Yeah Khal Drogo was really cool before he died. Too bad about that though.
