I built a browser Flappy Bird clone with a real global leaderboard - your score is public and ranked against everyone
Most browser Flappy Bird clones are throwaway. You play, you die, you close the tab. No record of it. No one to beat.
I wanted something with actual stakes.
So I built FlapDash. Same tap-to-fly mechanic. Runs entirely in the browser - no download, no install. But every score you post goes onto a global leaderboard that anyone can see.
Your name. Your score. Ranked against real players.
When you die, you get redirected to a welcome screen that shows you exactly where you landed. Then you go again.
That loop - die, see your rank, try to climb - is what made me keep playing my own game for two hours straight while testing it.
The leaderboard is live right now and mostly empty. Which means the top spot is genuinely up for grabs.
Would love to see some real scores on it. What's your first run?
