Follow up to Flappy Bird. Can lightning strike twice?

Jesus this looks annoying.

There are already clones in the play store even though it doesn't seem to be out yet!

I could barely bring myself to watch that. That, to me, is like torture.

I don't believe Flappy Bird was a particularly difficult game - once you had patience and adjusted to its rhythm the biggest obstacle was effectively the player's own endurance level. The actual mechanics were consistently tough but absolutely fair.

In comparison Swing Copters, based on around fifteen minutes play, is a ****ing nightmare.
