Flappy Bird Game FAQ
Game Basics
Flappy Bird is a simple yet challenging game where you control a bird by tapping (on mobile) or pressing the spacebar/up arrow (on desktop) to make it flap its wings and fly. Navigate through gaps between green pipes without touching them or the ground.
Mobile: Tap anywhere on the screen to make the bird flap.
Desktop: Press SPACEBAR or UP ARROW key to flap.
Some versions also support mouse clicks. The game automatically starts when you make your first flap.
Your score increases by 1 point for each pair of pipes you successfully navigate through. The game ends when you hit a pipe, the ground, or the ceiling. There are no bonus points or multipliers - just your raw skill!

While the original game had one difficulty, our version offers three modes: Easy (wider gaps between pipes), Normal (standard Flappy Bird difficulty), and Hard (faster speed and narrower gaps). You can switch modes from the main menu.

Troubleshooting
Try these solutions: 1) Close other tabs/applications, 2) Update your browser, 3) Disable browser extensions that might interfere, 4) Clear your browser cache, 5) Try a different browser (Chrome/Firefox work best). If on mobile, ensure you have a stable internet connection.
Loading issues are usually caused by: 1) Slow internet connection, 2) Browser compatibility issues, 3) Ad blockers interfering with game scripts. Try refreshing the page, disabling ad blockers temporarily, or accessing the game from a different device.

Advanced Tips
Top players recommend: 1) Maintain consistent, rhythmic tapping, 2) Focus on the space between pipes rather than the bird, 3) Stay centered in the gap, 4) Practice controlled, small flaps rather than big jumps, 5) Take breaks to avoid frustration affecting performance.
Our version includes several surprises! Try: 1) Pressing certain key combinations on the title screen, 2) Scoring exactly 10, 25, or 50 points, 3) Playing at midnight (real-world time), 4) Rapidly tapping 10 times before starting. Discover the rest yourself!
