What happened to Flappy Bird

What actually happened to Flappy Bird? I know it got removed, but why did they have to remove it?
It hit the pipe too many times and as a result, the trend died.
Dev said it too addictive so best option was to removed it.

Must've been reported for animal right violations so in order to keep good PR, they removed it.


Note: I don't know actually...didn't even notice it was gone.
My hat used to be somewhere along the border of being grey but over the past few years, I realized my calling is to learn and help others out in ways that I can ethically. Learn as much as you can, experience, grow, educate, and throw yourself in uncomfortable situations.
After kids were killing eachother over it the Dev removed it.
I heard it was because the developer was getting death threats from angry gamers.
I believe that children were actually killing themselves over the game, and although the owner was making thousands and thousands a day he decided to remove it to avoid any legal issues and, well, to not have children killing themselves lol. That's what I heard at least.
I heard the developer of it got death threats towards him and his family etc because of the game.
I read it somewhere so I am not sure how true it is.

Wouldn't be surprised. People are fucking crazy getting mad over the smallest of things.

The dev is a dumbass. He was making $50,000/day from advertisement. Said it was "too much" for him and removed the app from the app store. After some time went by, people kind of forgot about the game, he said he was planning to put it back on the app store. I don't know what is happening now but he fucked up.

For some people, money isn't everything in life. Getting death threats against your family and yourself would be cause for nearly anyone to think twice. Can't blame him, it is his decision after all.

I agree, many people forget that the human race is a trillion times more valuable then money.

Think about it, we are all different and unique so we are so much more valuable then currency.

I heard this as well.
I apologize to everyone truly. I didn't do what I did just for the hell of it. Family needed food and a roof.
