Floppy Baby 

Floppy Baby is a small, self-contained arcade game — the studio's take on the endlessly tappable Flappy-Bird formula, given an original, silly identity: a diapered baby that rises on each tap and drifts back down under gravity.

It's a deliberate change of pace from data-heavy product work — a reminder that game feel, timing, and juice are their own kind of engineering.

Arcade games are unforgiving about feel. The jump impulse, gravity, obstacle spacing, and collision generosity all have to be tuned until the game is hard but fair — the difference between 'one more go' and a delete.

It also had to run smoothly frame-to-frame, handle its own game states cleanly, and remember your best score between sessions.

The game is built on SpriteKit with a physics body for the baby and precise contact bit-masks for the bottles, the ground, and the score gates. A small state machine moves between waiting, playing, and game-over, with the baby held still until the first tap.

Clouds drift in procedurally, a sound effect fires on each flap, and the high score is persisted with UserDefaults so there's always a number to beat.

The result is a complete, tappable little game with a start prompt, live scoring, a best-score chase, and a bright, wholly original art style — self-contained and ready to run on an iPhone.

It's proof that the same craft we bring to platforms scales down to something whose only job is to be fun.

Built for iOS with SpriteKit and Swift: an SKScene drives the physics simulation and game loop, category bit-masks handle collision and scoring, and a dedicated audio helper plays the flap sound.

Game state, obstacle spawning, and the parallax cloud layer are all managed in the scene, with the high score saved to UserDefaults.
