Everyone is playing that game because everyone is playing that game.

The Depressing Black Market That's Ripping Off Video Games

it's like that fancy restaurant in that fancy district, everyone go there because everyone go there. I know a place like this in Montreal. There's nothing special in that restaurant, it just fell in that loop.

http://www.reskinningapps.com/ge…“e.g. Think of a game like Space Invaders – Now think of a reskin with a unicorn shooting love hearts to a group of humans, who “explode with happiness” if hit by the love hearts. Yeah not the best example, but all I could come up with.”
Yeah, no shit that's not the best example, Tim Buchalka, you talentless, pointless schlub - but I bet it's the best YOU could come up with.
Christ almighty.

Getting a game to go viral like this is like hitting the lotto.

this isn't about glory, it's about a stupid frustrating game made by some dude out of some place in 'Nam. It's more like a meme as I see it. People need to take a deep breath and stop worrying too much about stuff like this. It's just a stupid bird, like Dogecoin, it's just for lulz. Good for the dude, he's making money doing what he loves, he struck a hit out of nothing. That shit is inspiring.
BTW 26 :P

the dude will have like 15 to 25 milions $$$ at the end of the year if it keep that pace.

seems a little too polished and well conceived. I'm starting to think that it was in fact made by a pretty big developer who realized the earning potential of reseting the game every 5 seconds as mentioned above, and they came up with the "solo vietnamese programmer" persona to help it go viral.
huge backlash if roxio came out with this as a money grab, not so much if it was Tran duc phan ngyuen straight out the jungle.
hmm.
