Nothing about flappy bird was original when it came out and half its assets were ripped from other games.
Yeah because it was a free game in the "hold to fly the helicopter up" genre that wasn't supposed to blow up this much. There are millions of such games on app stores, steam, etc. Some of them catch lightning in a bottle and become ridiculously popular despite there not being anything special about them.
