Not a Bot! by Jeremy Ho
Buy as many bears as you can while getting past pesky captchas! ʕっ•ᴥ•ʔっ
luckily, there's plenty of shady auto-clickers and programs you can download off the internet to help you get them all~~ :mousethreebutton: can you prove to the site that you're not a bot?
- Loading... may take up to a minute. don't worry if the screen is blank, just give it some time
- Reach 1000 clicks for a special delivery???

love the look of the game and the music
the amount of captchas is a bit annoying sut i guess that makes the game more interesting since that's quite an obstacle you've got to overcome
good job!

(super fun submission, nailed down the vibes with this cute idle clicker. who knew captchas could be so fun :) )
@luriq that's exactly the vibe, thanks for noticing! definitely was inspired from past experiences downloading sketchy illegitimate programs online as a kid, e.g. trying to get a free copy of photoshop or a chatbot that supposedly would do your homework. fortunately there are no viruses here, but i still think all the desktop clutter and popups are rather nostalgic haha
@ruddgasm the secret is... we couldn't figure out how to import 3d models for the animations in time, so we just had to import every frame (out of hundreds, each rendered at exorbitantly high resolution) manually as sprites. that final delivery scene takes 10 minutes to build each time... :'3
alas, we ran out of time and couldn't fit in more of the features that we had planned. hoping to work on it more post-jam. thanks for the thoughtful comments! wish you could've got to hear the music too!
@amango visit buy-a-guy.com today and get your guy, dare you try?
also im glad to hear that our game was actually kinda fun for people who don't usually enjoy the clicker genre. w00t!
The art is really amazing / funny, I really enjoyed playing it even tho clicker can sometimes be a bit harsh. Great job !!
