Let's go back to 2013 and remember how Flappy Bird took the gaming world by storm! It was simple yet so addictive. The success was huge, but the user experience needed some work, especially the tutorial part. So, I dedicated this to make it better, aiming for a clearer and more ser-friendly intro for players to feel less frustrated.
What's the Problem?
I wanted to whip up a tutorial that really hits the spot for players, smoothing out those rough patches and making gaming a whole lot more fun and less of a headache (than it already is).
What Did I Do?
Aligning with Flappy Bird's look and feel was important. I wanted to make it simpler without losing the clear instructions. By adding "Tap to Flap," I made sure players knew exactly what to do, creating a smooth connection between their touch and the bird's flight. It helped make the start easier for everyone.
Will It Work?
The changes were all about making sure players didn't get too annoyed right at the start while keeping that addictive factor going. People found themselves getting less annoyed as they played, which helped kick off things postiviely. And let's not forget, Flappy Bird's whole tough-as-nails vibe made sure you always felt that challenge, keeping players hooked without losing what makes the game so awesome.
