Flappy bird
« on: February 10, 2014, 10:38:30 AM »
Never played it, but I heard the guy made 50 000$ per day with that.. "game" before taking it off (he got some kind of negative comments and it "ruined" his life, yeah fuck). How the fucking shit-on-a-stick fuck is that possible? I mean that money? With that game?

It's a dead simple game. Unforgiving yet addictive. (not unlike rougelikes) It shows an Ad every time you start a new game. The average game just lasts a few seconds...

It's called good luck.

So some advertising companies pay it? How the heck they even have that kind of money for every dumb ass including those ads in games?
