As if anyone knows what he looks like and the notoriety is even a problem.

I crashed into the first pipe 7 times and deleted the game lol. Its very annoying. When you tap he jumps too high, and when you dont tap he falls too fast. Officially the most irritating game ive played on my iphone.

i think his decision to take it down is probably just a ploy to gain more downloads.

I don't think it's all hype, the game is actually pretty damn addictive although it's hard to say why. Through dumb luck the guy stumbled onto something profound about human psychology.

Boring and stupid, and I had to force-quit it because it wouldn't let me exit.

They guy that made it is taking the game down, says he "can't take anymore".
I'd take 50k dollars a day any time!

"App Store Madness Continues As New Terrible Game Tops Charts"
::" While some are still trying to come to terms with just how Flappy Bird got to the top of the App Store charts, another game has come along that will make you wonder just what the hell is going on.
Right now, the #2 paid app (#1 paid game) on Apple's App Store is a game called Red Bouncing Ball Spikes.
It is, for want of a more eloquent term, a PIECE OF SHIT!
Built using a $10 template available from Game Salad, a service for people who want some help making mobile games, it's poorly-rendered, breaks on some phones and lacks Game Center support. It lies about its length, promising "over 100 different long levels", while actually delivering around 30. Its first update had to add a menu button, because the original release forgot to. ::"

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.

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

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

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