Flopsy Droid, the first Flappy Bird clone comes to smartwatches with Android Wear

The arrival of games on smartwatches was only a matter of time and, from what we can see, it has ended since the title has just been made available for download Flopsy droid. We are talking about a clone of one of the best known titles in recent games on different mobile platforms: Flappy Bird.

In this way, in devices such as the LG G Watch, it is possible to handle a character, in this case the well-known green Android that represents the Google operating system, which must go around the obstacles that appear on the screen without them making it any damage and, neither, falling excessively. That is to say, that it follows the same guidelines as the well-known game that was withdrawn some time ago from the google play store (but he's already back).

And it is in this, in the specific section for the Android Wear operating system, where it is possible to get Flopsy Droid completely free of charge and occupying only 3,8 MB. Creation comes from the hand of Sebastian mauer, a German computer science student, who has shown that it is possible to play games on the small touch screens of smartwatches.

To use the development, by the way, it is necessary to have the smartwatch connected to the phone you have, since otherwise you cannot use Flopsy Droid. Therefore, the combination of both devices is necessary to advance through the different levels where the movements of the android are controlled from the panel of the smart watch. One detail to know is that the difficulty is as high as in the game Flappy Bird by Dong Nguyen, this being one of the keys to his success.

In short, with Flopsy Droid it is confirmed that the usefulness of smartwatches that use Android Wear will be more than just a notification center and receiver of information, as already advanced in the presentation in the Google I / O. In this way, users will be much more receptive when choosing one of these wearable accessories.
