As Telegram continues to rise in the world of Web 3 gaming, Flappy Bird aims to build on the hype by releasing Flap-a-TON on Telegram.
Flappy Bird, the hit mobile game millions of people loved ten years ago, has come back in a big way. The game returned after a 10-year break on Telegram and TON, a blockchain platform, on September 16, 2024. The Flappy Bird Foundation Group is in charge of this project, and Web3 leader Notcoin is helping.
With 950 million Telegram users and 200 million active gamers, the game aims to combine old-school fun with new technology. The foundation bought the trademark and rights to Flappy Bird, ensuring the latest version stays faithful to the original while trying out new Web3 features.
Flappy Bird is back with “Flap-a-TON”
The return of Flappy Bird will include the “Flap-a-TON” event, a creative mix of gaming and blockchain technology. In Season 1, a free mining event combines the classic Flappy Bird gameplay with new Web3 features. Most importantly, you don’t need to connect your wallet, which makes the process easy and smooth.
This comeback is based on strategic partnerships that aim to change how casual games work with blockchain. As the publishing partner, Notcoin uses its knowledge of mobile games to ensure the return is triumphant. The goal is to create a dynamic experience that combines the nostalgic appeal of the game with the latest technology.
Telegram’s part in this relaunch shows how gaming is generally changing, going after long-time fans and new players drawn to Web3. Telegram is becoming essential for Web3 games, so it’s an excellent place for Flappy Bird to return. The game is meant to be open to everyone and focus on the community. It sets a new standard for casual blockchain games.
Michael Roberts, who is in charge of making Flappy Bird come back, made it clear that the game’s return on Telegram is just the start. By combining Web3 and the TON ecosystem, the game will be safer, more interactive, and driven by the community in the future.
“The fact that Flappy Bird is back on Telegram is just the start.” We’re ensuring that the game’s future is community-driven, safe, and open to everyone by supporting Web3 and the TON ecosystem. Roberts said, “Web3 lets us give our players real ownership and a more engaging, interactive experience, making sure Flappy Bird and its IP stays a beloved classic for generations to come.”
New features have been added to Flappy Bird
After its launch on Telegram, Flappy Bird will get new versions for iOS, Android, HTML5 web browsers, and Telegram in 2025. These updates will add new things to the game, like new game modes, ways to customize it, and a way to track your progress. Even with the changes, the game will still have its simple, well-known gameplay, so it will still be fun for gamers today.
Kek, who inspired Piou Piou, Flappy Bird’s inspiration, talked about how excited he was about the game’s future. He said this was an essential moment in the history of video games and was proud to work with dedicated fans and developers. He thinks that working together could change the industry.
Thanks to help from Notcoin, Telegram, and the Web3 community, Flappy Bird is ready for the next chapter. The founder of Open Builders and Notcoin, Sasha Plotvinov, talked about how important Telegram is becoming for developers. He said that popular games like Flappy Bird help to keep people interested in this platform.
