Flappy Phone - Why play a bird when you can be the bird?

This project was submitted for Northwestern's Wildhacks 2023, and it is inspired by Flappy Bird and Das et al's paper on accessing mobile sensors. We were also inpsired by Wii Sports games, and we wanted to recreate these more immersive experience on a game that we could've built within 24 hours. Thus we have Flappy Phone, where you play as a bird flying through the city.

This project was bootstrapped with Create React App, ReactPixi, and Firebase.

The current implementation has only been tested on iPhone 8 or newer Apple models.
