[size=140]Everybody seems to be going crazy over Flappy Bird at the moment, and a lot of clones have instantly appeared on the market - so why not one for the ZX81?

Since 2005, when a friend persuaded him to submit a Spectrum game he'd written years earlier as a teenager, to Cronosoft, a modern retro-computer publishing house, Bob has been writing modern games for Clive Sinclair's ZX81 and ZX Spectrum home computers. You can see more of his projects on his website.[/size]

[size=140]Written in an afternoon to captialise on the media frenzy, it's got all the gameplay of the original, but none of the in-app adverts which have been making the author so much money recently - but you can always use the Donate button on the home and download pages to make Bob rich!

This is his interpretation of the mobile game 'Flappy Bird'. Control a duck by tapping any key to make him fly up, and so avoid the oncoming pipes.[/size]
