Copyright, plagiarism vs Flappy Bird


As reported by Patrick O'Rourke, Flabby bird created by Dong Nguyen is almost identical with 2011 iOS game called Piou Piou vs. Cactus. And the pipes bear more than a passing resemblance to similar plumbing constructions in the Super Mario Bros. series of games. The_Hyphenator says, "…he made a derivative, shallow game that rips sprites directly from other developers’ copyrighted titles." Nguyen revealed to take down Flappy Bird from iTunes App Store and Google Play. It has been downloaded more than 50 million times. Media and critics have been up and running so the Vietnamese decided to call it quits to have his simple and quiet life back. As of this writing, I managed to play Flappy Bird with my android phone and my last score was 83.

Once in a while, someone comes along to put you on top of the world.
