I did it! Thanks for a really fun 5 minutes. I loved the music and how it set the rhythm for the whole game. Maybe you could add more variety to the gameplay, like something about viruses and how to fight them. ![Снимок экрана 2025-10-06 в 20.44.57.png](///raw/4e1/66/z/6d7db.png)

This was really fun to play with eye tracking! :D It got me on the color switch though xD

Very creative idea and perfectly matching the theme! I really want those emotional support cookies though..

This game is really fun and silly!

It got super hard toward the end, but I managed to keep my data private :p

Good take on the theme, and good realisation (displaying info about user) ! It becomes tricky when Accept become red ^^.

Hey! Great game with an interesting concept. You know, I never really thought about being able to access system information in Godot and using it for tracking purposes.

But when I saw that little box showing my GPU model, it suddenly clicked for me.

Cool game, I liked how it escalated with multiple buttons and reversed colors.

Very funny. It was evil and frustrating, but in the perfect way. Great take on the theme!

It took like 30 seconds to beat, but I had a lot of fun! I've played something like this before so I totally expected the color swap. Nice touch with showing fingerprint data.

Hehehee. Very short game, nice humor, but above all great use of the theme. Nice little compo submission.

As everyone else has said, it's a nice submission! The first color change got me :)

So cool! An interesting fast-response game. Compared to all the games I've collected so far, I feel my work is really too hardcore, which is a bit sad.

Let's wish ourselves success, go for it! Make a more sophisticated computer simulator!

The cookies are delicious!

...I hate you.

But seriously, great take on the theme. I did like how this game really delivers in the outrageously counter-intuitive ways websites attempts to collect your browser's cookies.

I mentioned it on the stream that while I did find the game fun, the pop-ups escalates much faster than I would have liked. It would have been nice if the ramp-up time for the absurd amount of of pop-ups was stretched just a bit longer to help the player notice some subtle changes, like the color swapping between the accept and reject buttons. I also only barely noticed the cookie animation in the background, which while nice, did mean I couldn't pay attention to how much time I had to respond to each pop-up prompts. It would have been nice if the button themselves indicated their lifetime.

Still, I did like the frantic nature of the game, as well as how it tricks the player in nasty ways. Great job!

This perfectly encapsulates all the egregious tricks some website use to squeeze money and data out of you. Nicely done.

haha this is a pretty funny idea! I didn't even realize that some of the red buttons started saying accept until it was too late lol

Fun idea with cool gameplay. Was to the point and short, really enjoyed it. The color change was a cool twist!
