Flappy Bird coming back again: Hear what Nyugen has to say
Do you know Flappy Bird? What question am I asking? Everybody in this world knows and loves Flappy Bird. Its a simple type of program created by a simple Vietnamese programmer who got bored with his day to day programming life. Nyugen is a 28 year old programmer who took his weekend off to design a mobile game. The game you know as Flappy Bird was just a simple initiative inspired by Sega games which builds some hard puzzles and the game actually took five-eight months to take flight. The game now, as you know is…. Viral.
The game was first released for iOS on 24th May and the developer- Dong Nyugen wanted to make a hundred dollars in ads. He was earning $50,000 a day. And then suddenly…. Boom. He decides to remove the game from the Android and iOS stores. The WP Store still had the Flappy Bird game in it. But now, he comes again and says that, he will release the game back again. The game was said to be a cause of extreme depression and anger, and that may be the reason why this guy chose to remove the game from the stores.
The developer from Vietnam had a tough time early in his career. His father worked in a departmental store and his mother in the government. His family couldn’t offer a Game Boy advance, but later bought what was to be a clone of the original Nintendo, as available in the Vietnam market. When he was 16 years old, he learned to code and could write his own computer programs. He first learnt to write his own chess game.
He was especially talented in the programming language and even won an internship in the only and most popular game company in Vietnam- Punch Entertainment. As he felt uncomfortable with supervisors, there weren’t any one to supervise him and they say that he was specially talented with speed, fierce-ness and so on. But due to the removal of the Flappy bird, there have been many trolls.
Here are two things which I found funny when I searched for Dong Nyugen in google.
