Flappy Block – Flappy Bird clone using the iOS7 Physics Engine

Flappy Block No Mercy: You lose the game and you have to quit the app. - joeblau/FlappyBlock

Flappy Block – Flappy Bird clone using the iOS7 Physics Engine launched on February 10, 2014 with 41 votes, #515 of 1,100 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 12 years on.

In plain words

Flappy Block is a Flappy Bird-style game built using iOS7's Physics Engine. Players navigate a block through obstacles with no second chances—losing requires closing and restarting the app entirely. Designed for casual gamers seeking a challenging, unforgiving experience, it stands out for its no-restart-permitted gameplay that raises the stakes with each attempt.

    Hey HN! FlappyBirdle combines elements from the game Flappy Bird and the popular word game Wordle. I wanted to see if I could make a game that added urgency to Wordle, while also feeling outragous at the same time. I think I achieved it with FlappyBirdle. Every time you type a letter of the word, the bird flaps its wings and you get closer to the goal. It also has an easy mode that ignores the pipes, so even beginners can get a good score. Let me know if you have any ideas on how I can make it better!

    http://instantclick.io/ It seems the internet architecture won't bring us instant websites anytime soon. So here is a hack. I released this JS library last month (today is version 2.0 release, fixing v1.0's rough edges), it makes use of HTML5's pushState and preloading to make a website instant. It works like this: before clicking on a link, you'll hover over it. And there's a delay of 200-300 ms between these two events. InstantClick uses this delay to preload a page, when you click on a link it will display instantly in most case. (You can test on the website.) That's…
