Court documents reveal that Gametech Holdings had pinched the trademark from Nguyen after the original developer missed refiling for it. The Flappy Bird Foundation, spearheaded by game designer Michael Roberts, then purchased it from Gametech.
I didn’t know about the trademark take over. But, thats a great start to the reputation of this thing. Unfortunately most people won’t even realise what is going on here, so what are the chances some will mistake this as Nguyen’s doing?
The whole plan and background for this game sounds abhorrent.
Anecdotal but of all my IRL friends and colleagues, I’m the only person who has the game right now. Despite how much I tell them how good it is, and how much fun I’m having, a few don’t want to pay full price due to how short they’ve read the game is.
Is it much of a surprise when it comes to MiHoYo? Their entire model is based around this kind of thing.
I wish they would fix the OSK issue where it does not show when using the shortcut (STEAM
+ X
) but would when opening it from the menu.
Drives me mad.
