About Clumsy Bird
Clumsy Bird is the open-source take on the one-button flying formula: tap to flap, thread the gaps, and try not to throw your phone. Self-hosted here (GPL-3.0), it loads in a couple of seconds and replays instantly.
There is exactly one rule and one input, which is precisely why beating your own high score becomes personal. Perfect for a 30-second break that accidentally becomes ten minutes.
Controls
- Tap / Click / Space: Flap upward — that’s the whole game
Tips & strategy
- Short, rhythmic taps beat long presses — aim for the center of each gap.
- Look at the NEXT gap, not the bird; your thumb will follow your eyes.
