Flappy Bird clone is Android Lollipop’s easter egg

Daniel Morial Leave a comment

One of the fun thing about Android is their easter eggs. Each new version, or should we say flavor, comes with a unique one, and this time, it’s something familiar.

While most users won’t have the final release of Android Lollipop until November, developers and fanatics already have a preview of the said Android version. And what of the first thing to check is the easter egg!

Check out the video below from Android Central:

The new easter egg features a Flappy Bird clone game that you can play just to kill time or maybe you miss Flappy Bird. Since it is for Android, the odd-looking bird of the original game is replaced by the Android robot plus the trees are now delicious lollipops.

If you wish to check the easter egg of your current Android version (most likely Jelly Bean or KitKat), head over to the settings, and scroll down to the bottom to find the “About Device” menu. Tap on the Android version numbers many times to reveal the easter egg. You may need to long-press the image to further dive in to a game. Have fun!

From the creators of Flappy Bird comes a follow up called Swing Copters. The game has been announced just recently and is now available for download, finally allowing people to feel the rage again.

We must warn you though, the game is extremely frustrating just like Flappy Bird, and it seems to us that it’s even more difficult as we’ve already downloaded it. I personally haven’t even reached a score of 1.

You can download the game here for iOS and here for Android.

Swing Copters is the new Flappy Bird, but harder!

Swing Copters is a new game from Dong Nguyen, creator of the fun/annoying game Flappy Bird that got thousands of people hooked. If you’ve been out looking for a new challenging game to pass the time, you might want to check this out.

In Swing Copters you play as a guy with a propeller on his head, and instead of Flappy Bird’s side-scrolling gameplay you fly vertically while needing to dodge certain obstacles. Just like before, all you need to do is to tap. But the creator added a bit of a twist to make things harder – every time you tap, your character changes direction (left and right) and it’s up to you to guide him safely and make him fly as high as you can to set the highest scores.

Here’s the gameplay:

The game is rolling out on August 21 and will be free to download. Miss all the frustration that Flappy Bird gave you? Swing Copters is coming in two days.

Nguyen to re-release Flappy Bird in August

Just when we thought that the highly-addictive game has been finally laid to rest, Dong Nguyen (the creator of the game) said in an interview that he’s planning to resurrect Flappy Bird from the grave and will be available in three months’ time.

According to him, the new version of the game is going to be less addictive than its previous state which, if you guys can recall, was the main reason why he pulled the plug on the game in the first place. Moreover, he claims that the reincarnated game will have new features, as well as a new multiplayer mode.

There’s no telling whether the new Flappy Bird will have the same appeal as before, especially since there have been a lot of knock-offs of the game after Nguyen pulled the game from the App Store and Google Play Store. In any case, we don’t think that he’s going to lose sleep over it considering the success, not to mention the amount of money, he garnered at the peak of the first iteration of the game.

Following the success of the Flappy Bird game, YugaTech has decided to create a modded game for those who want a little twist as we’ve added a few new and interesting elements. While there aren’t really any birds involved, we are calling it YugaBird!

One of the new elements is that you can choose your character to fly. You can choose from the whole YugaTech team and when you reach a gold medal, you unlock new characters – the YugaTech logo and a few of our favorite readers.
