Such a flappy title!

To fill the gaping hole in our collective hearts left by Dong Nguyen's decision to take Flappy Bird off the Appstore, Dopterra brings you this colorful take on the modern classic of wingflapping.

Building on the rock-solid foundations of the original, Flutter Moth presents a distinct, charming look, precise controls, and a slew of new ways to fail.

Snakes. Why did it have to be Snakes?

It keeps track of your personal highscore and should also be playable from mobile devices - just tap the screen.

The game is still being worked on, so check back for new features every now and then!

"Turn off Spiders" not being one of them.

Have fun!

Just as obnoxiously hard as Flappy Bird (if not more-so, my high score is 2), while also more interesting and beautiful. Nicely done!

Update: I've figured out the trick for getting around sawblades, improving my score to a much more respectable 9

Seems pretty fun, but the music keeps turning itself back on after a restart .. :(

Thank you guys so much! @NickAVV I am really stoked you are enjoying the game! @Udderdude, sorry! I changed the way the audio was handled in this last update and I see that broke the music toggle because I forgot to change a certain variable in the new code. Will fix and upload a new version in just a few minutes!

If there's something else I would request, it's a fullscreen option .. the game seems to be locking down all of the keys, so Ctrl++ to zoom in Firefox doesn't work.

This is a LOT more enjoyable than Flappy Bird. I got up to 26 on the default stage, and 23 on the Castle. The variation adds so much to the formula, and the music is pretty charming. If you get this on the app store, you could probably get a good deal of sales.
