Really interesting concept! I loved needing to juggle different tasks, it was very fun. Only problem is that around the 80% mark, a captcha task appeared and I was unable to click the correct option, or any of the incorrect ones either.

Was this an issue with the button being hidden, or were you just having a difficult time clicking it?

The button itself was exposed, but clicking it didn't do anything or solve the captcha. I thought maybe I was wrong, so I tried the others too, but they didn't do anything either. I tried clicking different places and on like the word itself, but nothing happened. It was weird because I had no issues with those up until that point.

This seems like a problem with just weirdness with clicking. We've had this issue in playtesting as well. In case it helps, your mouse's position is always the top-right corner of its sprite (even when this game changes it). In a post-jam update, we intend to help with this issue by simply making the buttons for the captcha bigger, and maybe by making clicking more intuitive on the backwards and upside-down mouse sprites. Thank you for playing!

Interesting little game. Couldn't get higher than 56% unfortunately -- really needed a second set of eyes and hands, I think!
