The Flappy Bird Foundation has announced a new version of the classic mobile game, but original developer Dong Nguyen says he's not involved and didn't sell any rights.
Last week, The Flappy Bird Foundation announced a game called Flappy Bird . But while the group has been framing it as the triumphant return of a classic mobile game , Flappy Bird ’s original developer, Dong Nguyen isn’t calling it a comeback — in fact, he says he’s not involved at all. Nguyen posted as much on X this morning, saying he didn’t “sell anything.
The filing came nearly a decade after Nguyen pulled the then-popular game and never released another version, and the US Patent and Trademark Office determined his trademark to be abandoned, terminating his claim to it in January. The Flappy Bird Foundation didn’t say in its announcement that Nguyen was involved, but it certainly leans on nostalgia as it promotes the game.
