New year, new you? Nah. New game, same your best friend, now in cartoon form. Best friends deserve better than a Facebook “happy New Year”. Send them a game where they’re the hero and you’re the chaos.
Our pick: flappy flyer with the New Year theme. Your best friend dodge hangover clouds, grab champagne and clock pieces, and the game finishes with a fireworks ending carrying your own message. Every line is pre-written and funny out of the box, and you can change any of it.
Idea 1
One tap to play, so your best friend can pick it up in seconds and then spend an hour trying to beat it.
