Rovio, the developer behind blockbuster game 'Angry Birds,' has said today that the game has hit 50 million downloads, with over 10 million coming from Android devices.
The company also announced the "Bad Piggy Bank," an in-game payment structure on Android that lets users pay a certain amount to remove the ads in the free version of the game, or even purchase the "Might Eagle" DLC that is upcoming.
To use Bad Piggy Bank, you will not need a credit card, as the in-app purchases are billed to your monthly phone bill.
Eventually, the Bad Piggy Bank will be extended to other operating systems, like iOS.
Rovio’s Peter Vesterbacka confirms that Angry Birds will be hitting PCs, gaming consoles and Macs next year.
