## What is Flappy Tux?

FLAPPY TUX: KERNEL PANIC — the data center is crashing, and Tux is the last process standing.

Put your finger anywhere and drag to steer. Tux glides wherever you lead, weaving through a server room that is falling apart around him. Every run is different, every stage throws something new at you, and every upgrade changes how you play.

No accounts. No ads. No internet required.

DRAG TO STEER
► Precise, one-finger control — drag anywhere on the screen and Tux follows, offset from your finger so you always see him.
► Threats come from everywhere: dodge through open space, not down a corridor.
► Two ways to play — a second mode adds gravity and moving server racks, with the same enemies, upgrades and unlocks.

A ROGUE'S GALLERY OF PROCESSES
► Segfaults — fast, aimed, and unforgiving.
► Fork bombs — split in two the moment they reach the middle of the screen.
► Zombie processes — slow, relentless, and always drifting toward you.
► Memory leaks — a toxic floor that keeps rising until the stage ends.
► Packet storms — warning lanes flash, then a burst of projectiles tears across the screen.
► Daemons — weave up and down in waves you have to read.

$ SUDO APT INSTALL
Clear a stage and the terminal opens: pick one of three random packages. Upgrades stack for the whole run, so every build is different.
► firewall — blocks a hit and deletes the attacker
► sudo — phase through danger and kill -9 anything you touch
► cron — time slows down on a schedule
► magnet — pulls packets toward you
► overclock — bigger scores, faster world
► swap — an extra life that wipes the screen

SEVEN DISTROS, THEN THE MULTIVERSE
Survive seven Linux-distro-themed stages (Humanity, Blue Hat, Archway, Spiral, Chameleon, Crimson Cap, Emperor), each adding a new threat, then fall into the endless Multiverse where everything ramps forever.

PACKETS & UNLOCKS
Collect packets during runs and keep them. Spend them on permanent unlocks: start runs with packages preinstalled, or give Tux a new color.

DAILY RUN
One seeded run per day, identical for everyone who plays it. Same spawns, same package offers. Beat your best score for the day.

PRIVACY-FIRST, BY DESIGN
Flappy Tux collects nothing. No ads, no analytics, no trackers, no accounts. Your scores and unlocks live on your device and nowhere else. (Full details in our privacy policy.)

A LOVE LETTER TO LINUX
Stages named for the distros, upgrades installed with apt, enemies straight out of `ps aux`. If you have ever typed `sudo`, this one is for you. If you haven't, it's still a fast, tense roguelite survival game.

Tux is the mascot of the Linux kernel. Flappy Tux is an independent game and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Linux Foundation or Linus Torvalds.
