His game was able to hit the top of Google Play\u2019s high-ranking games in more than 20 countries including Austria, Germany, UK, and the US.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-9772\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2016\/11\/googlefeatureimage.png\" alt=\"googlefeatureimage\" width=\"553\" height=\"246\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In an interview with Philippine Daily Inquirer, Mapagu said that he was overwhelmed to see the people\u2019s reception on his game, especially in the US. \u201cLahat ng developers, US talaga \u2018yung target dahil ito \u2018yung napakalaking market. Ito talaga \u2018yung pinakamahirap na market (<em>All the developers target the US because it is the biggest market. This is also the hardest market to enter)<\/em>\u201d.]<\/p>\n<p>Mapagu believes that what made his game so successful and addictive was the fact that it was \u201chigh risk\u201d and \u201chigh reward\u201d. This is also what ties his game to Flappy Bird.<\/p>\n<p>Mapagu thinks that what made his game so successful and addictive was the fact that it was a \u201chigh risk\u201d and \u201chigh reward\u201d. He believes that the frustration brought by his game is also one of the factors that tie his game to Flappy Bird. Because of this, people who enjoyed playing the former would also be fans of Flippy Bottle Extreme. \u201cIn the future, if I keep on making those kinds of games, with the similar feel, I\u2019m sure there will be people playing the game,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-9767\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2016\/11\/15102399_10207820197082949_1718216835_o.jpg\" alt=\"15102399_10207820197082949_1718216835_o\" width=\"241\" height=\"523\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The young game developer was also the mind behind 9 other mobile games. Some of these games were: <em>Make Tusok the Fish Ball<\/em>, and <em>Make Tuka the Archer \u2013 <\/em>a game which was inspired by the De La Salle University-Ateneo De Manila University rivalry. Despite the success his games have achieved, Mapagu said that he does not plan to pursue his career outside the country. He believes that game-development is a rising industry, and that the country needs more creators and game developers who would one day create the game that would soon top the charts in many other countries.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/technology.inquirer.net\/55548\/filipino-made-game-flippy-bottle-extreme-becomes-intl-hit\">Philippine Daily Inquirer<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following the success \u2013 and the frustration \u2013 brought by Flappy Bird comes Flippy Bottle Extreme, a new mobile game that is just as addicting and as frustrating as the previous hit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":9768,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[95],"tags":[946,949,947,704,945,948,944],"class_list":["post-9765","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-feature-story","tag-app-store","tag-application","tag-flippy-bottle-extreme","tag-game","tag-google-play","tag-mobile","tag-mobile-game"],"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2016\/11\/15102399_10207820197082949_1718216835_o-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9765","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9765"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9765\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9773,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9765\/revisions\/9773"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9768"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9765"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9765"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9765"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
