Preface 1. Welcome to the World of Swift 2. A Memory Game in Swift FREE CHAPTER 3. A TodoList App in Swift 4. A Pretty Weather App 5. Flappy Swift 6. Polishing Flappy Swift 7. Cube Runner 8. Completing Cube Runner Index

Chapter 5. Flappy Swift

Let's start using the first framework by implementing a nice clone of Flappy Bird.
