I'm a developer myself and while theres been a lot of speculation about just how Flappy Birds became so successful I have to admit it is very addictive trying to beat your own score! So however he managed it well done to him!
Yes I'm a developer as well.

'Flappy Birds' is incredibly simple but it works on the basis of being a bit silly and simple but annoyingly addictive.

The control system works perfectly for touch screen and there is only one click to re-start the game, which makes it easy for the 'just one more go' thus amplifying it's addictive nature.

It's kind of the app equivalent of a novelty but catchy 3 chord pop song getting to number 1 in the music charts.
