Are there founders who didnโt appear to work on one particular thing really long and then had a breakthrough, but were more tinkering with a lot of ideas for a while until something clicked?

The Angry Birds people made a lot of games that were not very popular until they made Angry Birds which blew up. Also Slack ppl were working on one product (canโt even remember what it was) and decided to scrap it completely and focus on their side project (internal chat system).
