How to unlock the The Flapmaster trophy

    Well, there's a reason that this trophy is the rarest one. Flappy Goat is a mini-game that is accessed in one of two places.

    On the first level you can find it in the Coffee Stain HQ (a large house in the corner of the map near some other houses) upstairs on the hi-def TV. Or you can find it on the second level on an arcade machine under the ferris wheel (the arcade machine on the left of the three).

    You start the game by walking up to it and then pressing triangle.

    The game itself is a clone of Flappy Bird where you press one button to jump in mid-air and have to get your goat to pass safely through gaps. The problem is that it is initially balls-hard and also has very bad, and unfriendly, collision detection.

    Tips:

    1. The TV version is in 16:9, the arcade version is in 4:3. Pick the ratio that suits you. I went with 4:3.

    2. Find the rhythm that keeps the goat at a set height. You can get four jumps in between gaps so use that rhythm and slightly adjust for when you need to move up and down.

    3. Turn the music/sound off. I muted my TV. You need to be able to keep that rhythm going.

    4. Try to get a good view of the screen. I pulled a bench over to the arcade machine and stood the goat on that to get a closer view of the screen. I actually used an angled view where the left side of the screen was closer to me. I guess it helped.

    5. It helps to get a little distracted. My best runs all involved me thinking about other things before my concentration snapped back and I ended up crashing on 8 or 9.

    6. You can go from a good run to a series of rubbish ones easily. Do not worry about it. You'll get your mojo back as quick as it went.

    7. Ignore people who say 'this was easy, I got it on like my third go.' These people are pricks. Every trick trophy attracts them.

    8. If you meet anyone who works for Coffee Stain HQ, they've earned a warm palm across the face.

    9. When you start, you'll likely struggle to get past 1 or 2. That is fine. This trophy isn't that rare which means that plenty of people have managed it. You will get better and when you find your rhythm, you will get this trophy and the sweet platinum. It's all good.

    10. If you're going to downvote this solution, it is what it is. Don't hate the player, hate the game, kids.

    LunchCannon54Did this in a couple of hours on the PS3 version listening to an old radio show I like. You start off shit, then gradually begin to work out a rhythm and get gradually better and get relaxed, then a couple of near misses get to you and you get really pissed off, start fucking up again and then rinse and repeat until you get it. Have no intention of doing it again, though. How it's only a 1.4 and just over 60% of people on PSN Profiles have done it is beyond me. It's Sound Shapes Death Mode levels all over again.

    dwuTip 5 is by far the best part of this solution. You need to basically turn your brain off. I put a podcast on and ended up getting a score of 13 within 20 minutes after getting no higher than 6 on all my previous attempts.

    Dancsi39i got the trophy today on the ps4 using this method/video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLPu6lo8Uok

    For me, it was easier to attempt it on the TV in the house, i was able to move the goat close enough to see the whole game, in colour, just like in the video.

    On the arcade, the maximum score I was able to get was 7, while on the HD TV I got lots of 8 and 9 before I finally got the score of 10 after 1h30-2h of playing it.

    cr37994I have one tip: Move your face as close to the tv screen (In real life and in game) as possible. Before hand I tried for 20-30 mins to get the trophy and couldnt, but when I moved Closer, It took no more than 5 tries.

    obs8xWhat worked for me: approach each gap from slightly below & jump into it, then when you're close to landing on the bottom lip jump again. Staying low gives you plenty of headroom & you only need to worry about getting over one thing instead of threading between two.

    daltagnan_I spent well over 80 hours in getting Flapmaster alone. I tweeted at Coffee Stain and Goat Simulator when I finally got the trophy back in September, politely telling them to suck it and I can't wait to have to do something ridiculously hard again for Goat Simulator 3.

    VatchayeLet me share my experience on this after reading various comments about this trophy....
    I first time tried in goatville (because I was already there doing other trophy so lazy to change)... I tried for 1h almost and never been able to do it. The max I could do was 8 times... But barely average it was 2-3...
    Decided to give up and continue other trophy... Until I went to goat city, it took me just 3min to be able to complete the 10 times....not sure if it was luck or not or maybe as suggested by many, it was maybe easier in goat by city.
    Another issue is that it seems to have bug as I saw the trophy unlocked notification but when I check the trophy list it's still isn't............
    I had similar issue with other trophy on this game, it suddenly unlocked after a while so I may wait a bit more.... So you know.
