FlapBoy [#gbjam3] [Flappy Bird Clone]
« on: August 07, 2014, 03:59:23 pm »
A Flappy Bird clone I made for the #gbjam3, the game is written in C++ using SFML. Supports multiple difficulty modes. Don't hit the pipes or leave the screen. Basically an excuse to play around with some game architecture ideas. And because I figured I was possibly the last programmer on the planet who hadn't cloned Flappy Bird yet.

Cool little game. But I really hate the jump sound! It's too loud!

Point, I've lowered it in the code (it was playing at 100% volume, now it's 20%). I'm not an audio engineer, and heard it so many times it's just white noise at this point. Thanks ^^

EDIT: And video with lowered sound uploaded.

Looks good, there are a ton of worse flappy clones out there^^

The tearing in the video is quite high, maybe you should turn on vsync?

That's the recording software. My PVR died this morning so I did the recording quick-and-dirty using SimpleScreenRecorder on my Linux box and it seems for some reason to add a bunch of tearing that isn't in the actual video :S
