If you have implemented the modifier, how have you done so?
I added a mini-game that used to be called the impossible labyrinth... Also, the modifier is part of the story.

What a funny concept. I included it in my compilation video series of the ‘So Bad It’s Good’ Jam, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Yep, this game is impossible.

I can't really say I had *fun* playing it. It was more a mix of anger, frustration and confusion. With that said, I like the backstory, and I think it's a great premise. Funnily enough, in one of my previous SBIGJam games, a big part was on solving Captchas. I think this executed the concept much more deeply though!

Well done!

A very catchy spot-on game title and idea. I understand all the fuzz about the game. Congratulations. One of my favourites.

It's SO HARD! I can't get past the maze. Overall, great job :)

now that's a pretty robust captcha

I love the theme and the premise of the game. The music and sound effects make it tense right away. Good variation in tasks to do. 

Nice job!

The concept is pretty neat. That was quite a ride, an impossible one, but a fun one.

Interesting story and concept!

Reminds me of the good ol days playing those Impossible Quiz flash games on Newgrounds! Nice job!

This game is original, but hard as nails. I'm not sure what I did wrong, but your Modifier score is through the roof! :D

Developer

It is better to play in windowed mode (the buttons can be swapped randomly at high resolution.)  I also advise to fight on the right side of the wall in maze. Thx for your feedback!

Well the game is impossible dude but I think you could have made the graphics like  20 times better but that also makes the perfect for the SBIG jam so good job bro

Developer

Thx for your feedback. I'd like to make better graphics, but I can't, I hope I'll learn to draw better in the future.

I've decided to try using a standard format for all my feedback this time around. Please excuse me if I come across as overly curt or miss something important about your game. I'm writing these all quite hastily as there are a lot of games in the jam this year!

What I liked

The style and presentation of this game fits together fantastically. It reminds me of some of the Flash games from back in the day.

What I didn't like

The gameplay. It reminds me of those "impossible maze" kind of Flash games, which I've never been a fan of. It's not bad, necessarily, but really not my thing.

Did I think it was so bad it was good?

Oh, yeah.

My thoughts on the modifier implementation

It took me a while to figure out how it was woven into the backstory but once I did, I was like, yeah, that's pretty cool.

Verdict

Not really my cup of tea personally, but I can appreciate the style of it and it's definitely a good fit for this jam.

If you have any questions, comments, queries or concerns, please reply and I'll do my best to get back to you.

I think that the game wins the "Modifier" category..

Developer

Thx!

HAHA 

I had fun with this one. I think it's the only game I have been able to finish playing less than 15 minutes. The concept is promising, I would like to see a next episode.

Developer

Hey, I'm glad you liked the game! Thank you for the feedback.

Oh gosh that was special! I can't even beat the impressionist question - I've tried clicking on each one, but either there is no response, or it just kills me. Well done!

Developer

It is better to play in windowed mode, or you start having problems with the buttons. Thx for the feedback!

Haven't made it past the maze level.  Oh man, those gunshots...

Submitted(+1)

Wow.... this game is pretty intense for something about CAPTCHAs. I like how the backstory is read by a robotic voice! Also the intense music really adds to the atmosphere. I never knew trying to pass the captcha test could feel so life threatening, I literally jump the moment I hear the gun shots and Jerry's death sound. This really has an intense plot, it feels like a really good game, hardly any bad in it, but the plot of captchas makes it ridiculous--the idea really is so bad, it's good! Congrats on managing to make a simple concept so deadly. Also, I keep dying in the "simple maze" section, so the impossible factor is in there as well. I hope to pass that level at some point. 

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your feedback its means alot to me! I'm glad you liked the story. I hope you can get through the maze, the ending will not disappoint you!

Submitted

I'm definitely gonna keep trying for it! If/when I ever get to the ending, I'll leave a full review on the game's page~
