The enigma of a game called Flappy Bird that has seen a rather huge surge in popularity since its release onto Android and iOS isn’t just a mindless, frustratingly difficult, yet somehow addictive game that you downloaded and now probably waste a ridiculous amount of time playing. No, Flappy Bird is much more than that. It’s a pretty big success when it comes to revenues.
The currently and strangely popular game Flappy Bird has been invading the world quite nicely. Minecraft, where you can recreate anything and everything pretty much, now has its own Flappy Bird recreation that you can also download and play if you want additional mindless fun in Minecraft.
Cinemaware is a company not too different than DotEmu in a lot of ways. They both like to bring classic games to mobile platforms but DotEmu has a lot more game releases currently than Cinemaware does.

It’s almost self parody; a perfect encapsulation of all that’s good and bad in mobile gaming culture (not entirely unlike the fake-then-real, but horrible,Unicorn Apocalypse).
Elite Systems in trouble for apparently not paying devs royalties and pirating ZX Spectrum games
We’ve been saying this almost all week and a part of last week as well, there is always fun times to be had in the gaming industry. You can thank King for the recent entertainment lately but now Elite Systems is in the spotlight as well but for a whole different matter.
One of the most anticipated sim games last year, called Star Command, is now available for free for the next 24 hours. This is, of course, if you happen to have access to Amazon’s AppStore which, since the company’s expansion to other countries has happened, should mean a lot of you can take advantage of this deal.
