Nice. And accurate too. I got the same score as on the Android version. 0 points. Bookmarked, to take a look at what HTML5 looks like.

To me it seems much easier than the iPhone version.

Try playing it on the iPhone in Safari; it is tougher than on the PC due to the smaller screen. (Although the original game made with this code is quite playable on mobile.)

No volume controls

Does the actual iphone also game have such poor physics, sounds, and production quality? I haven't played it.

I think the iPhone version is a little nicer, but it does have a retro feel to it.

In chromium I have a feeling the reactions are a little bit late. In firefox it's better I think.

Hit areas of the pipes are a little bit too big. Or it's too fast to see what happens. edit: Pretty sure there's something either wrong or unexpected behavior in the game.

it's open source by the way https://github.com/uralozden/flappy-bird

Why did you blatantly steal from Mark Steve's version?

What makes me wonder: why the author didn't it copy really 1:1? Everything from the sounds, the proportions to the speed is slightly wrong making this thing pretty awkward.

Well,to be honest, flappy birds itself is an awkward copy of a much better game, so I guess its a tradition.
