Game released around 2015
I was 16 at the time and the game was so overrated
That the creator of Flappy Bird had to shut it down
AI Generated:
Dong Nguyen, the creator of Flappy Bird, removed the game from the App Store and Google Play in February 2014 primarily due to the addictive nature of the game and the overwhelming personal toll of its sudden global success.
Nguyen stated that he felt guilt over the game's compulsive effect on players, noting that it was designed for brief, relaxed play but had become a disruptive obsession. Additionally, he cited the loss of his simple life, citing stress from intense media scrutiny, death threats, and online harassment that forced him to retreat to his parents' home. While rumors persisted regarding potential copyright issues with Nintendo, Nguyen and Nintendo both denied any legal involvement in the decision.
