Not just a Flappy Bird Clone

This is a game that was very much inspired by the hit Iphone game Flappy Bird. In this game you tap the screen to move your bird down or up to make it through the pipes and achieve a high score.

I decided to make this game because unlike other people I actually very much enjoyed the frustrating difficulty of Flappy Bird. I wanted to take the same exact game but just spice it up a little bit, in an attempt to make it more interesting. Initially I wanted the camera to shift from a sideways game to a vertical game, but I ended up scrapping the idea entirely. Instead I decided to change the mechanic of taping. Every so often the bird will switch colors from Red to Blue. When the bird is blue it will fly down and you have to tap the screen to make it fly up, however when the bird is red it will fly up and you have to tap the screen to make it fly down. It changes randomly and it's unfair to the player, but that was the point. It isn't unfair and often enough that a player will thrown down the game immediately, but frustrating enough that a player will take notice.  

The game is here for anyone that wants to play it. I hope you have a frustratingly difficult time :)
