Did you imagine Flappy Bird could become even more exasperating? It certainly can, thanks to this exclusive foldable game.

What you need to know

– Foldy Bird is a clone of Flappy Bird that utilizes the hinge of a folding phone as a mobile game controller.
– To start, play, and retry, you must fold your phone.
– Each fold keeps your Foldy Bird in flight, introducing a fresh twist to a classic and captivating mobile game.

Foldable phones offer enhanced functionality compared to a standard flat phone, as when you unfold them, you encounter a display that’s twice the size. But what if the hinge mechanism itself turned into a feature?

With a new web game created by user Rebane on X (formerly Twitter), it has. “Foldy Bird,” a Flappy Bird replica, employs the hinge on your foldable phone as a mobile game controller. You continually fold your phone to make the Foldy Bird fly, steering clear of the green pipes to achieve a high score. It transforms an already addictive and compulsive game concept into something even more engaging—rather than just tapping the screen, players must physically fold their display to keep their bird alive.

This game is a clever project, and Rebane claims it was developed in an hour without any AI assistance. You can view the complete source code for the game here, and try it out for yourself here. However, a foldable phone is necessary to play, and it only functions in the Chrome browser for Android. The game doesn’t require any tapping — users must fold their device to commence, play, and retry.

The instructions for the game caution to “play this game at your own risk and only on your own devices.” This is because, despite the enjoyment that this creation brings, it might put you on a swift path to damaging your phone. Foldables are rated to endure a few hundred thousand folds, but they’re not built for vigorous and rapid folds in quick succession. If your foldable doesn’t sustain damage from playing the game, it might break from frustration when you inevitably crash your bird into a pipe.

If you own a foldable, Foldy Bird is definitely worth a shot. It’s difficult to think of a more inventive use of a folding display mechanism than as a mobile game controller.

The Luna Band, introduced at CES 2026, signifies a major transformation in the wearable fitness industry by emphasizing actionable insights rather than just data display. In contrast to conventional fitness trackers that concentrate on showing raw statistics, the Luna Band provides real-time, voice-guided health advice, enabling hands-free user interaction with the device. This groundbreaking method is supported by the incorporation of Siri-enabled interactions on iOS, allowing users to log meals, emotional states, and request health advice without the necessity of launching an app.

Fitted with research-grade sensors and a 6-axis IMU, the Luna Band is crafted to monitor micro-recovery intervals, circadian shifts, and stress indicators, equipping users with an all-encompassing comprehension of their physiological condition. The device runs on Luna’s exclusive LifeOS, which analyzes thousands of physiological signals each minute to offer context-sensitive recommendations daily.

The Luna Band’s focus on actionable insights marks a shift from the data-centric strategies of many wearables, striving to provide users with relevant guidance that can enhance their health and wellness. Despite its sophisticated features, the Luna Band will debut without any subscription costs, although details on pricing and availability have yet to be revealed. This commitment to user-friendly, actionable health insights positions the Luna Band as an attractive option compared to existing fitness wearables such as the Whoop 5.0 and Amazfit’s Helio Strap.
