Temple run, Candy Crush, Angry birds... even Draw Something. its not a surprise that Flappy bird made it big, given the history of mobile games that have went viral before.

There is no way anyone can ever predict the next mobile game going viral. The mobile gaming market is so volatile and thousands if not hundreds of thousands of devs have tried to replicate the success of Angry Birds or Flappy with no success.

This guy was absolutely lucky, with the planets and stars aligning, to have a world phenomenon spawn from a days worth of programming using crude sprites and Mario assets with no marketing or attempt at breaking out whatsoever.

One can be envious or jealous of that kind of success. Maybe even spiteful.
