Run it normally:
./flappybash.sh
Press SPACE for things to happen.
Press q to quit.
You can change the effective screen width by passing an argument:
./flappybash.sh 120

Your bash is too old. This most likely means you're running OSX and you'd want to use Homebrew to install an up to date one:
brew install bash
Check that bash --version is at least 4.0 and run the script again.
