Basic Goal
The object of Flappy Bird is very simple: Tapping the screen makes the bird flap its wings and ascend; stopping makes the bird descend. The goal is to make it between as many green pipes as possible without touching them. The pipes are randomly generated, making the pattern different every time.
Points and Medals
Each time you pass between pipes you earn a point. Passing between ten to nineteen pipes grants you a gold medal, between twenty and twenty-nine earns a silver medal and so on and so forth, with the color of the medal turning lighter and lighter until completely white.
