In a new video, a developer has shown off a playable version of viral hit Flappy Bird running inside a macOS push notification. It’s the work of Neil Sardesai, who previously made headlines with a clip of Pong running inside a macOS app icon. The hack has yet to receive a public release, but it’s still a neat proof of concept.
According to Sardesai, the feature works by loading a web version of the game into the notification. This playable version is technically a browser-based clone of the original app made by Will Eastcott of PlayCanvas. Sardesai notes that the feature relies on the UserNotificationsUI framework, introduced by Apple with macOS Big Sur, though he says it should also work on iOS.

Step 2: Start the installation of Bluestack on your Windows computer or on your Mac. Step 3: When Bluestacks is installed, you can start the software by clicking the logo on your desktop. Step 4: When Bluestack is open, go to the Play Store (connect with your Google Account or create a new free Google Account). Neil Sardesai is the first developer to convert a full-sized game into an interactive notification. As a result, he got a fully playable clone of the original version of the game. And since Sardesai shrank the game and made it just 28KB, it fits into your Mac’s notification center. The short answer is that the bird process Mac is the back end process behind iCloud and iCloud drive. It can sit there on your Mac computer at 100 percent CPU usage all the time, without appearing to accomplish anything. You cannot delete it as well. The Mac bird process is deemed an essential part of macOS, whose content is proprietary.

Distracting notifications are bad enough when you’re trying to get some work done, but combining them with a playable version of an infamously addictive game is the final straw. Sardesai doesn’t appear to have released his work publicly for anyone to try out, which is probably a good thing for the sake of our sanity. After all, the last thing humanity needs right now is for our devices to be able to compel us to play several rounds of Flappy Bird with just a simple notification.
Flappy Bird’s addictive nature was cited by its developer as one of the reasons he removed it from the App Store after it became a hit in 2014. “It happened to become an addictive product. Outpost echo mac os. I think it has become a problem,” Dong Nguyen said in an interview at the time. Although the original game is gone from the App Store, numerous clones have surfaced in its wake, including an excellent battle royale version.
Mac OS X 10.10.1 Yosemite/iMac mid-2011
My iMac is really slow to start-up, to run, and to have applications run. I have 32 GB memory, 113 GB hard disk capacity and it has never been slower in its life. There is a process called 'bird' that is running almost constantly whenever I run Activity Monitor and it is taking up to 140% of CPU time. What is 'bird'? Why is it running constantly and eating up so much CPU time? Why is my iMac so slow running Mac OS X 10.10.1 Yosemite?
Saturated mac os. Other issues on my iMac include: Software Update is supposed to be updating and installing updates automatically and it is not. When I log in, I see a blank white screen with an apple logo and a progress bar below. It takes forever for the progress bar to get 1/4 of the way across, then the screen flashes and the progress bar finishes the remaining 3/4 really fast. And then once logged in, it takes forever for my dock icons to appear, and my iMac hard drive is chattering like crazy even though nothing is running yet. Whenever I launch Safari I get a progress bar in the address field that goes 1/3 of the way across and frequently hangs. And then just nothing. All of these issues never happened before Mac OS X 10.10.1 Yosemite. Bubble golem mac os. Is anyone else experiencing issues like this? How did you solve them?
