About Flappy Bird Classic
It is a 2D pixel arcade game with no finish line.
Each flap pushes the bird up by the same fixed distance and cancels its fall, then gravity pulls it back down. Pipes stand in your way top and bottom, and the gap between them shows up at a random height each time. Every pipe you clear adds a point, and the goal is to pass as many as you can before you crash.

Because the gap height is random, no two runs play out the same way, so you cannot memorize a route. The hard part is timing. One flap too many sends you into the upper pipe, one too few drops you into the lower one.
Between runs you can make things a bit easier by widening the pipe gaps in steps of 2 percent. It is a small change, but it gives you more room while you learn the rhythm of this animal flyer.
Quick summary
- The bird flies forward by itself and you make it flap.
- Green pipes come at you with a gap at a random height.
- You score a point for each pipe you get through.
- A crash ends the run, and you try again to beat your best.
Key features
- One control does everything: flap.
- Every flap lifts the bird the same amount and stops its fall.
- Pipe gaps appear at random heights, so each run is different.
- You can widen the gaps by 2 percent at a time between runs.
- The look is simple 2D pixel art.
Tips & tricks
- Find a steady rhythm instead of mashing the button.
- Expect a flap to lift you a little higher than you think.
- Expect the bird to drop faster than you think between flaps.
- If you keep crashing early, widen the gaps a step or two and practice your timing.
- Play calm. Rushed flaps after a bad run usually end the next one fast too.
