Dong Nguyen Rebuts New Flappy Bird Versions: Authenticity Overboard

The Curious Case of Flappy Bird’s Return: Creators Weigh In

What’s Going On?

Flappy Bird, the addictive mobile game that swept the world in 2013, made a surprise comeback recently after being dormant for over a decade. But here’s the twist: the creator, Dong Nguyen, had nothing to do with its revival.

The Plot Thickens

Nguyen recently broke his silence on the matter, stating that he has no affiliation with the new project, which is being led by an organization called The Flappy Bird Foundation. To add more fuel to the fire, Nguyen revealed that he "did not sell anything" and "I also don’t support crypto."

The Mysterious Case of the Terminated Trademark

The chain of events began when an organization called Gametech Holdings LLC filed to terminate Nguyen’s Flappy Bird trademark. The group then picked up the trademark for free, which ultimately led to The Flappy Bird Foundation acquiring the legal rights.

Crypto Confusion

During the discovery phase, web pages hosted on the new Flappy Bird site were found to reference heavy Web3 crypto integration. While it’s unclear if these references are related to upcoming features or abandoned plans, it’s undeniable that crypto is involved.

Flappy Bird: A Tale of Success and Strife

When Flappy Bird first released in 2013, it was a simple yet charming mobile game that became an overnight sensation. The game’s addictive nature led to a global phenomenon, but unfortunately, it took a toll on Nguyen’s life. The creator eventually shut down the game in 2014, citing addiction concerns and the negative impact it had on his personal life.
