I figured out part of the reason some people suck.. The game is all about touch sensitivity and if there's any kind of cover on your screen it'll screw that up. I got a new phone without a cover and I was immediately better.

Don't see why he plans on being a game developer if he can't deal with one of his games being successful. "Can't deal" can mean many things. The attention? Legal issues, possibly?

I feel like it's got something to do with the design of the game. I remember when I first played it, I thought it was a Mario/Nintendo creation. From the pipes to the background to the bird to the text... I feel some lawyers are a knockin' on Mr. Nguyen's door.

Sounds like he's trying to get a rush of downloads ahead of the "deadline". Pretty smart if so. It will work.

Well that's what he said, but what other reason would he have for shutting it down?

Seeking attention maybe? It says users who have already downloaded the game will still be able to play. Trying to increase numbers for today, I don't know.

I just got 243 on the game this morning. No bs. I know I have no life.

He's got to be making a killing on from the advertising on there. I would think anyway. Don't know if he gets paid per click or impressions.

Looks like Mike Tyson's punch out when MAC is on the bike. Then Mario pipes.
