Flappy Bird

An important lesson I learned in life, more than 5 years ago, is : Be careful of what you dream, because it might become true. And that's why I find this article about Flappy Bird very interesting. I'm glad the guy made money (he is still making it from the games people kept installed).

My favorite part :
But Nguyen understood the mantra of game design that Nolan Bushnell, creator of Pong and founder of Atari, described as "easy to learn and difficult to master." More recently, indie game makers had taken this to speed-metal extremes with the so-called masocore genre – games that are masochistically hard.
The article is here : The Flight of the Birdman: Flappy Bird Creator Dong Nguyen Speaks Out.

Too bad this article has a video that is auto-played, and it sucks. The video is decent, though.
