Gimkit

Gimkit is an educational classroom game with a variety of gamemodes, created by Josh Feinsilber. In order to make a game, the host first needs to create a Kit, which is a set of multiple-choice and open-response questions. Then, they can pick a gamemode and host a game, which can be joined by anyone with a 5–6 digit code.

===2D Modes:===
2D Gamemodes are separate from Classic and Classic Twists as players are represented by visual players known as Gims and are controlled using the arrow keys or WASD on PC, and the joystick on mobile. You can interact with the world and use enter on PC and tap on mobile to use items/devices.

==Cosmetics ==
Cosmetics are split into 3 categories: Gims, Stickers, and Trails you can buy with GimBucks earned by actions in 2D gamemodes. Gims are the characters you play as in the lobby and in-game. Stickers are cosmetics that can be applied in any 2D gamemode lobby as a stamped image on the ground. Trails are particles that come out of the player when walking in any 2D mode.
