Pugo! the Pinoy Flappy Bird, #1 on Top Charts

Talk about Pinoy pride, the Flappy Bird-inspired Pugo! ranked first in App Store’s Top Charts for free games. It has only been released less than a week ago, and positive reviews have already been flooding its page.

Update: According to co-creator Camy Cabral, Pugo! will be available for Android devices in two weeks as they are still currently working to fix the game’s laggy movement.

pugo

Pugo! was created by Manila-based couple Patrick Cabral and Camy Cabral. They are designers and artists who tried their luck making their first game app. Luckily, it was received warmly by people.

Same mechanics as Flappy Bird apply to Pugo! — tapping the screen to make it fly and dodge obstacles. In this game, you are a small pink quail that avoids trees while roaming around the forest. There’s also a happy background music which makes everything light and jolly.

The couple added a new element to the game which I think (former) Flappy Bird players will love: Extra lives! Watch out for Philippine flags and collect them as they save your quail’s behind when it crashes.

Pugo! is now available for download in the App Store. We will try to get in touch with the creators and ask if the game will also come to Android devices.

    I also developed a pinoy version of tic tac toe. It’s called tic tac toe movable. We pinoys call it tapatan/taytayan. I used to play this using tansan (bottle caps) and play board drawn on a pavement or paper. Please try and comment. Thanks! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.therabytes.tictactoemovable

    Inggit naman ako sa media mileage ng Pugo. I made this app, Floppy Pipe. I don’t consider this as a clone because it’s a different concept. I’m the very first who submitted that kind of app in Google & Itunes. I hope media could also pick up my app and get viral. Check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OepCHWKbYVA

    I believe the title of this post is a bit misleading, it should read “Pugo the pinoy flappy bird #1 on top charts for the Philippines.” The title as is, implies that a Filipino made app, one that would obviously only be downloaded by Filipino users because of use of the country flag as some kind of pride/nationalism thing, has become a world wide success, reaching #1 on worldwide charts, when this is not the case at all. This app is #1 in the Philippines only and is not even in the top 100 on any other countries charts at the moment.

    • Avatar for trolalu trolalu says:

      Haha. Tama. Napaghahalatang uhaw na uhaw ang mga pinoy sa karangalan. Sa ibang bansa normal lang kasi sa kanila, kasi madami silang achievers, sa pinas konting something lang, pinagsisigawan na, kaya pwede na…pagbigyan. Haha

    • Avatar for wew wew says:

      @trolalu wow kung makapanglait sa pilipinas wagas…isipin mo n lng kung gaanu kalaki ang populasyon sa amerika..icompare mo sa pinas…xempre dahil mas marami sa kanila mas malaki tsansa n mas marami silang magagaling.anu naman kung maging proud sa isang bagay?kung ikaw b for ex. fil scientist k tas nakatuklas k ng idang mahalagang bagay…d k ba magtatanim ng sama ng loob sa gobyerno pag d mo naramdaman na natutuwa sila sa nagawa mo lalo nat pinoy k?

    • Avatar for trolalu trolalu says:

      @wew, hindi excuse ang population, ex. South Korea, Japan etc.. Binasa ko ulit ang comment ko, wala akong nabasang panlalait, pero kung yon ang dating sayo, bahala ka. sinabi ko lang ang totoo. Ni isang gold nga sa Olympics, wala. Sabagay #TruthHurts. Wag na nating lokohin mga sarili natin. Thank you!

    • Avatar for trulalo trulalo says:

      @simultaneous May basehan yong sinabi kong uhaw na uhaw ang pinoy sa karangalan, hindi mula sa sariling lohika lamang! 19th place sa winter olympics, kung makaasta tayo parang gold medalist, nanalo sa X factor Israel grabe kung makaasta tayo parang X Factor US/UK napanalunan (btw congrats sa kanila, hindi ako bitter, masaya ako for them, yoko lang sa ibang pinoy OA makapinoy pride, yon lang!) At kung mahilig ka magbasa online, andaming pinoy fantards sa mga forums kung makaasta parang iniinvade ng mga pinoy ang buong mundo. Natatawa na lang ako at nakakainis at the same time kasi ayaw ng mga foreigner sa ganyan! At saka CRABMENTALITY agad, di ba pwedeng REALISTIC lang? Magising ka sa katotohanan uy! At isa pa, pinoy ka nga, OVERSENSITIVE! :)

    • Avatar for wew wew says:

      @trolalu wala naman kasi akong nakikitang mali sa way ng pagiging proud ng mga pinoy,lahat naman ng mga bansa ganyan ang nagiging reaksyon pag first time o sabihin naten na bibihira lng na mangyare sa kanila ang isang bagay.marami naman kasing mga bagay na dpaat na kinokonsidera kung bakit kakaunti lng ang achievers naten. at least nga pinaparangalan naten e,tas kapag hindi pinansin ng gobyerno magagalait na naman?wala nang nagawang tama ang gobyerno eh.

    • Avatar for trolalu trolalu says:

      @simultaneous, AGAIN..observation at fact na fact yong sinabi ko, bakit hindi ba totoo? Hay naku, dami mong satsat porke ganito ganyan, daming dahilan..aminin mo man o hindi, totoo yong sinabi ko! At isa pa wala akong sinabing mali ang maging proud, lahat ng lahi sa mundo proud sa lahi nila, AGAIN.. ang ayaw ko lang OA makaPROUD TO BE PINOY, kelangan ipagsigawan? Hehe. Hala naku, baka sunod yan trending na to sa twitter asking for “public apology”. Hehe.

    • Avatar for wew wew says:

      ganito lng un.di mo masisisi ang isang tao kung ipagsigawan nya na proud siya,eh sa ganun talaga siya kaproud eh.bakit kailangan ikahiya ang pagiging proud?dahil para sa ibang tao normal na lng ung ganung achievement?halimbawa eh sa skul namin normal lng na nagkakaroon ng maraming upcat passers,di naman sa pagmamaybanag eh maganda talaga ung kalidad ng edukasyon samin.pero d ko ikinakahiya ung pagpost ng nanay ko sa fb para lng icongratulate ako na nakapasa ako,in fact proud ako na ginawa sakin un ng nanay ko,d niya naisip ung ibang tao na baka sabihin na mayabang/OA siya dahil para sa iba eh normal lng un.kuha mo?

    • Avatar for trolalu trolalu says:

      @wew, o sya bahala ka, di ko na binasa comment mo ng buo parang lumalayo ka na sa topic. O sya, Ikaw na! Ikaw na ang PINAKADAKILANG PROUD TO BE PINOY! :) Congrats! Pinagbubunyi ka ng buong Pilipinas. Proud na proud kami sayo. :)

    • Avatar for simultaneous simultaneous says:

      @truolalu
      winning is winning.. kahit ba sabihin mu na pang 19th place lang kung ilan ba silang ng compete it is an achievement for most of filipinos.. try mu kaya lumahok sa competition.. at walang magsbi sau na pinoy pride? what will you feel? yang pinoy pride na yan ay moral support.. pampataas ng kompiyansa sa mga lumalahok sa competition.. kng ikaw e ndi proud wla na qng magagawa jan.. kaw yan eh.. but most of filipinos kc they tell to the world that they are proud being a filipino who can compete even to the best of the world. and sa x factor n sinasabi mo even na hindi US or UK un still ibang bansa pa rin un.. tsk.. at ano gs2 mu? manahimik lang tau habang tinatapaktapakan ng ibang lahi? kaya ganyan sila umasta dahil hindi tayo matitinag.. hahahaha laban kung laban!

    • Avatar for wew wew says:

      @simultaneous well said =) ang bottomline dito,kung anu ung nararamdaman mo wag mong ikahiya kung ung pagiging proud mo eh sa puntong ipagsisigawan mo,gawin mo,wala namang mali dun e.

    • Avatar for trolalu trolalu says:

      @wew @simultaneous edi kayo na proud! kayo na sikat sa buong mundo, kayo na pinakamagaling sa mundo, grabe iba talaga ang pinoy! Proud to be pinoy, Yaaass! Angat talaga ang pinoy! Yaaass!

    • Avatar for Arianette Arianette says:

      Super agree ako diyan. Okay lang siguro magpakita ng tuwa at MODEST amount of pride without coming off as arrogant. Marami, hindi lahat (at baka magwala na kayo jan), ng mga pinoy posters sa net like youtube süper grabe kung mag yabang! Yung iba pa up to the extent na nilalalahat ng pinoy ang kagalingan.

      Like, nanalo si manny or si charice or si osang tapos ang logic biglang = filipinos are good at boxing/singing. Kung maka kuha ng credit eh wagas! Tapos hamunin mo eh isang sampal lang, iiyak na, or pag kumanta, nakamamatay! Kadiri to death!!!

    • Avatar for wew wew says:

      @Arianette iba naman tinutukoy mo…un ung mga tao na wagas kung magyabang.sa tingin ko pag ganun na eh hindi na pagiging proud un.pede namang maging proud nang hindi nagiging arrogant,hindi b?

    it sucks. like other flappy birds theme, Because of curiosity why people downloading it, As far as I see, Splashy fish and flappy wings works for me…

    • Avatar for KING KING says:

      it sucks — oooohh, big words..

      ..but you did try to download, install and actually play the game for that lengthy and oh so convincing and academic conclusion?

      so what’s your app contribution to the community oh high and mighty Pharisee then?

    • Avatar for natsu natsu says:

      bakit po ba tinangal yung flappy bird?

    • Avatar for some guy some guy says:

      He is entitled to his opinion. He thinks it sucks. None of us have any right to tell him to think otherwise.

      One does not need to know how to make a game to criticize one. Movie critics are not directors. Sports analysts can’t play pro sports. This does not make their opinion any less valid. By your logic, you cannot say that food tastes good/bad unless you are a chef. That is, needless to say, ridiculous.

      I am happy to inform you, however, that even by your ridiculous standard, I am qualified to have an opinion (I am a developer and my team has released an app that was far more successful than “Pugo!”). That opinion is that this game “sucks”.
