Flappy Bird Creator Dong Nguyen Comes Out of Social Media Retirement to Take a Swing at GameFi

Flappy Bird was pulled from both the Apple App Store and Google Play in February 2014 as its creator, Dong Nguyen, blamed himself for the game’s addictive nature and didn’t appreciate the fame the title’s worldwide success brought him along with allegations that he stole art and character designs from Nintendo. The game required users to keep a cartoon bird airborne as it flew between columns of pipes without hitting them.
