I'm Not A Robot by Turkey
Welcome to I'm Not a Robot! A Web based game with the goal to solve as many Captchas as you can! This game was written using Typescript & React. You can read more on why I used React down below.
Intro
We've all been there and we all know the pain when we see a dreaded Captcha pop up on our screen. Yet another check to make sure we aren't a bot. Alas, Captchas seem to be here to stay and new versions seem to pop up all the time, but what if we could make completing Captchas fun? Well that's probably not possible, but I have attempted to do that nonetheless! In this game your whole objective is to correctly answer and complete as many captcha and verification challenge questions as you can. Only stipulation is that you have 30 seconds to do it. Well maybe not quite 30 seconds as every time you answer one right you will have time added to the timer. Get one wrong however and you will have time deducted from the timer! When the timer reaches 0, the page will refresh and you'll start right back here! So how many can you complete?
Why React?
A While back I started remaking games using unconventional game engines. I've made Snake and 2048 inside of Discord, Tetris using Minecraft, A game using only HTLM & CSS, and many others! Bottom line is I enjoy this challenge and always look for new weird ways to make games without Unity, Unreal, Godot, or other conventional game making strategies. For this game, React just fit the bill of how I wanted to build it! Check out my YouTube to see how I've made some of these games!

Great idea to use the captchas system! There comes a time when it becomes impossible to continue, but I think that supports the theme.
Congratulations!
@papaya Yeah, I kinda wish I had gone to 5 seconds instead of 10 seconds for the deduction. The whole difficulty curve was a long process to get right and I think I almost had it. Also I'll have to check the traffic sign bit. A few people have said they have had issues with that, so I'll poke around see if maybe there's a bug there
Great job!
Did you use an existing captcha or just make it look like one? Impressive either way.
Also I believe I'm your 20th, congratulations!
Congrats :D
Made it to 19!
