[h1]Played On: [b]HTC Vive[/b][/h1] At this point, everyone should at least vaguely remember the insanely popular, $50,00+ a day earning, mobile game from a few years ago called Flappy Bird. It was only up on iOS and Android for a short time until the developer pulled it down, as he deemed it "too addictive". Afterward, phones that came with the game installed sold for tens of thousands of dollars. It truly was one of the most off-the-wall fads, and clone games have been consistent ever since. Queue in Flappy Arms, the first virtual reality clone of Flappy Bird. The goal of Flappy Arms is to make your way through building after building, guiding yourself through the pre-cut holes; if you hit the building itself, it's game over. If you're down for an extra challenge, some buildings even have their doors at the bottom open; beware, as one miscalculated flap will end your entire run. The global Steam leaderboards keep track of your high scores, and you can even put the camera into "spec...

This might be a good game, if there were just a little bit more variety to the visuals. It's flappy bird, but in VR. And you get to flap your arms around like a moron. This might be fun with a group of friends over some beers. But there just isn't any variety to the scenery. That might be fine for the mobile game, but in VR there just needs to be more of an effort put to make the world immersive and fun. Have us flying over barns, cows, fences, roofs, tractors, pigs. with maybe airplanes on top we can crash into or UFOs or what not. Just make it a silly, fun environment where we can flap our wings to get around the obstacles. Something more creative than the same building over and over again but at different heights and at faster speed. That's not fun for more than 2 minutes. It's tiring to flap your wings, at least give us some reason to want to do it. Rate 3/10 Really poor effort, but at least the mechanics work. Maybe the dev will update and add more fun visuals, becau...
I actually think it's pretty fun. Not something you're going to get like hundreds of hours out of but it's fun enough that you can show to people new to VR or just leaderboard chase for a bit. For $2 i'd pick it up to add to your vr collection. https://youtu.be/SlNS2lN_F50
Great party game! Surprisingly did NOT make me sick at all, and I get motion sick very easily in VR, cars, planes. One could easily get half an hour to an hour of fun gameplay out of this and longer with friends. Super easy to get into, great for showing friends VR, and hilarious to watch and compete!
Best $2 I have ever spent, not exaggerating. I am getting ripped as hell from this pixelated bird game. The reset time between dying and restarting is so short that I frequently find myself stuck in a just-one-more-try loop, and the soundtrack has been making guest appearances in my dreams. 10/10 would give myself rubber arms again
This is exactly what it looks like For the money you pay you cant expect to much This game have room for improvement. Maybe add a little bit movement to the streets or meet some birds in the sky + responds very well to the movement - All the buildings you fly through are the same color.
The game doesn't strive for perfection--Flappy Arms is unabashedly a love letter to Flappy Bird. What makes Flappy Arms stand out as a worthy successor are the deeper-level mechanics. At the end of the day, flying through the first gap in Flappy Bird was just as technically difficult as flying through the 100th. This is not the case in Flappy Arms. Once you've become comfortable with the controls and can reliably fly through the buildings, the pace becomes quicker and the gaps become narrower requiring a higher degree of skill to continue maximizing your score. You will eventually hit the proverbial and literal wall when the relative heights of your target gaps are too disparately spaced. To continue progress, you will need to reliably fly through the hallways that appear randomly after the fourth building. Figuring out the balance of risk and reward in swooping through hallways or gaps allows for some surprisingly in-depth strategy for a game based on Flappy Bird. Credit should ...
I bought this game for my son to play. He seems to really enjoy it and plays it until is arms get tired. Lots of fun!
It's a different perspective of Flappy Bird! It's a go for this price.
its a lot of fun
