This is not the second one, nor will it be the last. Kongregate alone has dozens: http://www.kongregate.com/search?q=flappy

It's just hype. If people are motivated to learn new skills because of it, then that's a good thing.

I showed my son how to open the debugger and change the opening width in the pipes to make it easier. After he took a picture of a score >1000 to show his friends, he started to mess with all the other variables.

The he asked me to teach him how to make his own game.

Win.
