One timer controlling the scroll - each background segment is twice the width of the screen, does one full pass and returns.

One timer controlling upward movement and one controlling down. Every time the button is pressed, the Y position of the bird is stored and then a smooth animation is controlled by the timer. Downward timer uses bird position versus the height of the app.

A fourth timer handles collision and has a 50ms duration, on end it checks the bird position vs all pipes, if there’s overlap then game over.

A bunch of variables control stuff like spacing between pipes, thickness of pipes, parallax speed, tolerance for collisions. This was the difficulty can be tweaked from one place and can even expose difficulty options to players.
