The core mechanic is a really cool idea! Your page was right I had not controlled a game like this before haha. Well done!

How does the game fit the theme?
This is an endless runner where every land gives you three clues, but one may be lying. You have to work out which information to trust before you reach it. You do so by scrunching your keyboard to make an Origami shape.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
I made the paper origami by hand, and photoshot them. I made any visual asset, except few stock free to use things. Audios are all or mostly free assets from itch or youtube.

Thanks man, I really enjoyed watching you play! For anyone reading this, this guy plays jams on his stream and is doing a whole lot of good for this community, check him out he's super underrated and a great watch.

I love the unique controls, even sometimes it gets a little hard to do the shape in time when you are very fast. But probs for trying something new!
The idea is also very good. took me a while to get the hang of it but when it clicked it was a lot of fun.
I would like to see the controls used in some other game, like a platformer or even something like a combat game.
Great work!
I couldn't form the shape i want but the feeling of sprinting my keyboard is very sastifying. Amazing mechanic
Practicing a bit does help. But as a new player with 0 knowledge of the game, i think i would need more time guessing.
From what i experience, you only get the bonus if the shape is formed before landing. That creates some moment where i actually do the gesture but didn't get the bonus because it lands before changing shape
I'm not saying that you should make it easier, but consider being generous with the clock in the first few rounds so that 1st time players can get used to the mechanic.
However, it's a game JAM . The core loop matters to me more than balancing
That was so clever! I love the feel of scrunching my keyboard! The crumple noise is soooo asmr. It would be nice if there were a few more forms tho. Overall, i loved it!!!
This is what i would call innovation! This is a jam entry that i looked and said ''I wish I'd thought of that!'''.
Nice Idea! I love the art! Though you could have made such a great loading screen!
Such a unique idea! I especially loved how the keyboard almost becomes a physical controller here — swiping across the keys to fold the paper is definitely something I’ve never seen before
It takes a little time at first to understand the controls and get used to the gestures, but once it clicks, the mechanic feels really satisfying. I think a slightly smoother introduction to the controls at the beginning could make it even easier to get into. Either way, this is one of the most original mechanics I’ve seen in the jam so far!
Love this unique input method!Using the keyboard's physical layout to shape shift is such a clever design.
Super unique input as others have said, once I got that down it was fun. I did notice there was some missing icons, I believe these are from the default font in godot. 
This is such a creative idea! I’ve honestly never played anything where I had to use my keyboard like this before. Scrunching and swiping across the keys to fold the paper feels weird at first, but once I understood it, it was really fun haha.
Definitely one of the most unique mechanics I’ve seen in this jam. Great job!
Hard to get at first, but once you do, it's amazing. One of the craziest ideas I've ever seen.
