A decade after the wildly standard sport Flappy Chicken disappeared, a company calling itself The Flappy Chicken Basis introduced plans to “re-hatch the official Flappy Chicken® sport.”
However this morning, the sport’s creator Dong Nguyen posted a characteristically terse remark stating that he has nothing to do with the revival, and that he “didn’t promote something.” He added, “I additionally don’t help crypto.”
To be clear, Nguyen’s feedback don’t precisely contradict something within the basis’s announcement, which described the group as a “new group of passionate followers dedicated to sharing the sport with the world,” and stated it had “acquired the rights from Gametech Holdings, LLC.” (Apparently Gametech efficiently filed to terminate Nguyen’s Flappy Chicken trademark a pair years in the past.)
However the submit makes it clear that Nguyen will not be concerned with the brand new mission, and that he doesn’t appear significantly comfortable about it.
As for Nguyen’s reference to crypto, whereas the inspiration’s present PR supplies don’t point out something crypto-related, Varun Biniwale did some digging round hidden pages on the Flappy Chicken Basis web site and located a reference to Flappy Chicken flying “larger than ever on Solana because it soars into Internet 3.0,” although it’s not clear whether or not that refers to imminent options or deserted plans.
Flappy Chicken — a comparatively easy side-scrolling sport with retro graphics — was first launched in 2013, finally turning into a viral hit and turning into the most-downloaded app on each the iOS and Android app shops. Nonetheless, Nguyen took the app down in February 2014, declaring, “I can not take this anymore.”
