This statement caused quite a stir among gamers, especially those who are die-hard fans of Flappy Bird.

Fans discovered that the entity responsible for releasing the game is a company called Gametech Holdings LLC. It was revealed that this company currently holds the trademark rights for the game after easily winning a court case regarding the product, as it had not been officially managed for a long time according to applicable laws.
