The idea

The most famous one-tap game in history, brought back for a new generation — the feel of the original, with modern live ops underneath.

Flappy Bird Islands

Same flight, new reasons to come back every day. Flap through the classic course, spin for coins, raid a friend's island, and build your own — ten birds per race, one hit and you're out, and every finish pays.

What we learned

Three taps to play. Sessions grew from one minute to six once daily challenges and the right onboarding were in. Simple games are the hardest to tune.

coffee, a walk, or a hard problem?

Let's make something

Find me at the SPC office in Bengaluru, usually Wednesdays. Coffee, a walk, hacking user acquisition — all yes.
