About this game

This is a small web game called “Sob to Play Flappy Bird”.

There are already too many Flappy Bird games on the internet. While playing them, I noticed that most of the frustration comes from suddenly hitting a pipe and losing everything in a second.

But I just wonder, if losing really feels that bad, what if I am already in a bad mood to play Flappy bird?

When people feel sad, many of them open their phones, watch videos, scroll through social media, or post about what happened to ease their feelings. Sometimes it helps, but sometimes it only makes them feel worse. So instead of using a keyboard, mouse tracking, or even nose tracking, I want to use sobbing as the input.

I thought it would be funny if sobbing could do something useful instead. So in this game, every sob makes the bird fly.

Crying or sobbing becomes the thing that keeps the game going, and move on.

You can sob to fly. Crash into a pipe. Or perhaps laugh when you hit a pipe.

Microphone & privacy

The game learns the loudness and sound shape of your examples. It listens for short, similar bursts. A quiet room helps for better detection. Nothing is recorded or uploaded. Only your best sob scores are saved in this browser.
