Flappy Bird Game

This is a simple Flappy Bird game built using Java and Swing. The player controls the bird to fly between sets of pipes by pressing the spacebar.

Features

• Classic Flappy Bird gameplay mechanics.
• Smooth bird movement and pipe generation.
• Real-time score display.
• Game over and restart functionality.

Game Mechanics

1. Bird Movement:

   • The bird's movement is controlled by the spacebar. Pressing the spacebar makes the bird jump.
   • Gravity constantly pulls the bird down, so you need to keep pressing the spacebar to stay in the air.

2. Pipes:

   • Pipes randomly appear from the right side of the screen and move leftwards.
   • You score points by passing through the pipes without colliding.

3. Score:

   • The score is displayed in the top-left corner.
   • When the bird passes a pair of pipes, the score increases by 1.

4. Game Over:

   • The game ends when the bird hits a pipe or falls off the screen.
   • Pressing the spacebar after a game over will reset the game.
