A downloadable game for Windows

The page is in the way. So fold it.

Origamity is a puzzle game played on a single sheet of paper. You walk across it. Ink blots block you. The exit is on the other side of the sheet, and you cannot get there by walking. So you grab the edge of the page, pull it across, and the far side of the paper lands next to you.

HOW IT WORKS

The sheet is always one solid rectangle. Grab a crease and pull, and that half of the page flips over onto the other half, mirroring everything on it. Fold your own side and you get carried with it.

Everything stacks. Ink that lands on your path blocks it. Paper that lands under a hole makes it walkable. An eraser pressed onto a blot wipes both away. A pin nails its half down so it can never be the half that moves. Wet ink bursts onto the paper around it the moment a fold presses it shut. Tape locks a crease so it can never be folded, in either direction. A tear needs paper folded over it twice before you can cross it.

150 pages, fifteen chapters, one new idea at a time.

Feedback welcome. If a level felt unfair or a fold did something you did not expect, I want to hear about it.
