Flappy 2048 in HTML5 Canvas (zhuoweizhang.net)

Hey, I recognise that code... It's my Flappy Bird Typing Tutor (sans typing): https://github.com/mrspeaker/Omega500/tree/master/ex/flapjam

You should have used my flappy-accurate "Wafty Man" code: https://github.com/mrspeaker/wafty-man/ - it has exactly the same rotation and physics as the original ;)


Oh, I didn't know Wafty Man was based on the typing tutor code. Wafty's been the most accurate flappy bird clone I could find on the app store by far. It's impressive, same guy behind the two ;)


I'm holding out for 2048 Tetris. Each combine gives you the ability to rotate a Tetramino 90 degrees. Extra combines are automatically banked.



Yeah. Well, now this really will get out of hand...


This game deserves a co-dependent scoring scheme and a leaderboard!

Possible score function = (score of 2048)^[(score of flappy bird)-(# of failures at flappy bird)]


I don't get it. I can click on Flappy Bird to play there, and move tiles in 2048 to play there, but there doesn't seem to be any interaction between the two.


This will end western civilization


The Flappy interface seems to come from http://www.mrspeaker.net/dev/game/flappy/ (the Typing Tutor), but the gameplay is vanilla. Weird.


Add "in HTML5 and Canvas and JS" to boost votes even further - it's HN!


I'm waiting for a version built using reactive programming. Then I shall be impressed.


I don't know if this is a bug, but the bird flaps regardless of whether my 2048 move is valid. I.e., I can continue to flap the bird by pressing the right arrow key, even if that doesn't result in a move in 2048.


Don't try playing that flappy bird clone with headphones in. It's gonna take my ears a while to recover from that coin sound.


Any reason why that webpage is flagged as harmful by F-secure?


Uncheck "Productivity/time sinks" in the detection tab in the preferences


There goes another series of my productive hours


This has totally ruined my day.
