Oh Wow this board moves fast. Posting again.

>Made a flappy bird clone.
Do you think it has any chance of making money?
>features
You can build your own levels (wip)
Multiple birds with their own flap style and aerodynamics (not in yet)

>here's the wip build
You can play it in your web browser, a lot of things are placeholder at the moment but I will be modifying it for android tomorrow and releasing it come Monday

>What micro transactions are you adding if any?

The birds will be customisable so maybe I can add micro-transactions to purchase hats or something?
I want to late add a way to save the levels you create and upload them to the cloud where others can download them and try to beat your score on your own level.
Maybe add microtransactions so you can purchase harder obstacles?

Otherwise it's just going to be add supported.

Make a stylized top-down shooter with progression and integrate it with a dating sim. Be sure to use only highly-stylized 2D graphics for the former and photo-realism for the latter. Also, yeah, use birds, but only real life birds.

/agdg/ idea guy + dev here.

You could make this into a Flappy Bird + Happy Wheels type thing.

Would go nice with the building your own levels, would just take a lot more work.

Just reskin Minecraft, Slender, or Angry Birds and re-release it for money without a demo or gameplay video. Just search for "block," "budder," or "slender" on the Android market and you'll see why.

>> No.17109

Nah bro one-click is where it's at right now.
People don't have time for the two click in their busy lives anymore.
By the time you're waiting for the second click they're gone already to the next app bro.
You gotta keep it one click.
I wanna try get it down to half a click, like you click and you slide it, and you don't lift your finger up again. Whole game you play with your finger still on the screen after the first click.
Anygame that can do that is gonna be the next flappy i tell you.

>> No.17117

Make a flappy bird clone except time the pipes to a music so you make it a rhythm game.

That'd be pretty fun. Especially if you could code that users could make custom levels with their songs.

>> No.17125

How about an app called "I'm fucking rich" and all it is is a picture of money that says "I'm fucking rich" and it costs 500 dollars?

That way fags can brag about how rich they are when they let people borrow their phone.

Too much effort for the add your own music, but I like that idea.
It's like those levels in the new mario.
They make a TICK TICK TICK TICK and then the platforms FLIP! and then it goes TICK TICK TICK TICK and the platforms FLIP AGAIN!
It makes you build a rhythm and the tick's fit in with the stage music. I think I can add something like that.

A version that costs $500.00 and a lite version that costs $5.00 to fake out your friends. How exactly is that funny, and what do you gain from claiming you spent $500.00 on something worthless? It doesn't matter as long as faggots don't think about it.

Eh?
What do you think?
It's like the rich person app, just it's for poor people.
And it runs ads.
When you click on the dollar sign it spouts sound clips at random "IM BROKE" "I AINT GOT SHIT" "*fart noise*" etc
When enough people download it for shits and giggles I'll release another app that costs exactly $1 called "I've got a little money".
I then continue up making apps from $1 to $10 to $25 to $50 to $100 to $500 to $1000.
Literally the same principle but each one branding you in a certain income range.
So $1 officially verifies you're in the minimum wage bracket.
$10 officially verifies you're neet or on welfare.
$50 officially verifies you're a young professional
$1000 officially verifies you're a billionaire.

>> No.17383

Ok that's a good idea.
Maybe I'll make it so you can pay it off in increments too?
So it has a level up bar with how much money you have to pay until you get to the next level.

jesus christ
you guys are going about this all the wrong way

The fact that Flappy Bird is no longer officially available makes trying to build a clone worse since everyone is going to do that.
you're going to oversaturate everything and that will only accelerate how fast people get over it.

This happens all the fucking time with mobile games I'm surprised no one has learned from it yet.

bro tip: examine what makes these games great and make something original from that
