Angry Birds (game)



''If you are looking for the series, see Angry Birds (series). ''

Angry Birds (also known as Angry Birds Classic) is a puzzle slingshot game released in December 2009 on iOS and Maemo, later being released on Android in October 2010. The game was developed and published by Rovio Entertainment Corporation with the help of ClickGamer and Chillingo. Their fifty-second, Angry Birds was supposed to be Rovio's last game, but the game's success not only saved the company from bankruptcy, but started the entire Angry Birds media franchise.

In the game, the player launches the Angry Birds from a slingshot at pig fortresses containing the Bad Piggies who stole their eggs. Seven flock members debut in this game (Red, The Blues, Chuck, Bomb, Matilda, Hal and Terence), while two others (Bubbles and Stella) migrated from the indirect sequel, Angry Birds Seasons. Six types of pigs also appear, including three sizes of Minion Pigs, along with the Corporal, Foreman and King Pigs. There are over 700 levels in the game, spanning over 17 episodes, along with the Golden Eggs scattered across the game that the player can find.

Development
Undergoing a financial crisis, Rovio Entertainment Corporation got its workforce reduced from 50 to 12 employees, and the staff started looking for proposals to overcome this.

One proposal made by Jaakko Iisalo in a simulated screenshot, where round birds were launching themselves into squares, drew attention to them by wondering what was happening in such image and approved it. The developers then started to further develop it.

As the picture gave no clue of what was being played, they started to wonder how the gameplay could be. As cannon games were famous back in the day, the developers used a similar concept. They also noticed the birds had no enemy. Jaako Iisalo liked to draw animal characters and pigs were something natural that came in his sketches. He never saw them as malicious, for him, the birds are the aggressive side while the pigs are just mischievous. The Swine Flu outbreak had a bit of influence when designing them, but wasn't a direct influence.

The game initially had some Role Playing elements where the player could modify the flock of birds.

The estimated initial price to develop Angry Birds was to exceed €100,000 ($113,869.30).

Angry Birds was made by a team of four people and took at least eight months to finish.

Rovio partnered with distributor Chillingo to publish the game to the App Store. Chillingo has claimed to have participated in the game's development, as they were said to be responsible for adding trajectory lines, pig grunts, zoom option and birds' athletic jumps before going to the slingshot and waiting.

Since then, Rovio has self-published almost all of the later ports of the game, except for the PSP version, which was produced under license by Abstraction Games.

In December 11th, 2009, the game was released for IOS and Nokia devices. The game was initially paid and didn't sell many copies.

After Angry Birds was made a featured app in February 2010 on the United Kingdom, it reached the 1st position in a small period of time, and then reached the 1st position on the paid apps chart in the United States App Store in the middle of 2010 and stayed there for 275 days.

Knowing this, the developers started to develop an Android version of the game. They observed that Android had much different configurations; The combinations numbers of software versions, processing speed, even the user interfaces were significantly larger than the iOS version. The team then settled on a minimum set of requirements, even though that left nearly 30 types of Android phones unable to run the game, including some newly released devices.

In October 15th, 2010, it was launched for Android devices, and the developers then started porting the games to other devices. The game's beta for Android hit more than one million downloads in three weeks

In August 2th, 2012, Angry Birds HD was released, featuring a retina display and HD graphics.

In April 2019, the game was unlisted in the app stores but came back and received a new update. Afterwards, it was then unlisted again in July 2019. Rovio Entertainment Corporation stated that they had removed the games for testing purposes, but never explained what the test was. Later, the statement was changed to say that the game was removed because Rovio did not want to keep updating the game.

Plot



 * For information about each episode's plot, see the Episodes section.

The game is set in Piggy Island, an island inhabited by The Flock and The Pigs. The flock consists of the following rare birds:


 * Red: A red cardinal with anger problems. He is the leader of The Flock.
 * The Blues: Three bluebird brothers that love to make pranks and jokes.
 * Chuck: A fast yellow canary with a love for speed and martial arts.
 * Bomb: An explosive black loon that is very shy and loves Ice Cream.
 * Matilda: A harmonious white hen that loves peace and flowers.
 * Hal: A traveler green toucan that loves camping.
 * Terence: A mysterious & large red cardinal.
 * Bubbles: An orange oriole that loves candy and Halloween.
 * Stella: A rebel pink galah with a love for parkour.

They are protecting the Three Eggs, which they believe to be the offspring of their species, from the pigs.

The pigs live in Pig City, ruled by King Pig. King Pig wants to eat the Three Eggs so he honors his ancestors. For this, he demands Minion Pigs to steal them. He has the help of Corporal Pig, a hard-headed army commander and Foreman Pig, a mean engineer.

In a cave lives Mighty Eagle, a grumpy eagle that is not part of the flock but helps the birds when they give him sardines.

Once upon a time, Red was protecting The Eggs, until he was distracted by a mosquito. He chased it, leaving the nest unprotected. The Pigs saw their chance, and stole the eggs. The birds were shocked by seeing the nest empty and chased the pigs.

The Birds then use a Slingshot to destroy the pigs' structures and save the eggs.

Angry Birds Classic for Kakao
Angry Birds Classic for Kakao is the Korean version of Angry Birds Classic. The game was released on February 16, 2015. It is only available on Google Play for the Korean marketplace.

The gameplay is still the same as the original version, but the only difference in the Kakao version is it has a life system and an adventure map-like level select, like Angry Birds 2.

However, the ratings of Korean users are the lowest among the Angry Birds series games.
