Evil Captcha

[For proper formatting of the description, especially the lists, visit the mods modrinth page]

Don't you love captchas ?

This mod adds 14 silly captchas that appear at inopportune moments; for example when opening a loot chest. They get progressively more difficult, with most not having a max difficulty; so if you play long enough, they'll get almost impossible at some point.

This mod is obviously not serious btw. Not a safety measure, just a small funi

As Seen on TV! (<- actually just youtube)

Features

Captcha-like minigames (surprise!)

• Classic Single Image Boxes
• Shows a single cohesive image; "click all boxes containing X"
• Difficulty increases the accuracy required to pass
• Difficulty also influences the Image Pool
• Classic Multi Image Boxes
• Shows multible boxes with small images; "click all boxes containing X"
• Difficulty increases the amount of boxes and slows down the fading animation
• Difficulty also influences the Image Pool
• Classic puzzle slide
• Shows a cohesive image with one small part of it on the side. You need to slide it into its rightful place
• Difficulty influences the accuracy required to pass
• Classic Wonky Text
• You need to transcribe the increasingly obscured letters shown to you
• Difficulty adds more and more layers of.. obscuration ? dunno if that's a word
• Classic Image Search
• You're shown an array of Objects scattered over a background image; You need to click a specific one to pass.
• While this sounds similar to Comprehension tests (next bullet point), there's no Adjectives involved here
• Simple Comprehension Test
• You're shown several Objects with different Attributes; you then need to (for example) "Click the Green Apple", or "Click the Nervous Delta"
• Difficulty influences the Object and Adjective Pools
• ADVANCED Comprehension Test
• You're once again shown several Objects with different Attributes; the prompts are a bit more complicated though (for example) "Click the Circle in the color of the Huge Mystery"
• Difficulty influences the Object and Adjective Pools
• An incident of me not getting past one of these irl was probably the main inspiration behind this entire mod. It's a deep seated Trauma. Yes, this Mod is Vent Art (<- not really (I want to clarify that this is a joke))
• Math
• Solve a Math Equation to pass (yea, that's it)
• Difficulty influences how big the numbers are and what Operators may be used
• Caution: Order of Operations is taken into account
• Wimmelbild
• A harder version of Classic Image Search; an absurd amount of Objects is shown, making it much more difficult to find the right one
• Wimmelbild is german and can be translated to "Busy Picture". It's that type of game where you gotta find a bunch of stuff in images, usually to obtain an item and ultimately solve a puzzle
• Difficulty increases the amount of objects further
• Rorschach Test (now we're getting into the sillies)
• What do you see in this image ? How does it make you feel ? Maybe you'll find an answer in these random ink splodges
• Not influenced by difficulty
• Gambling Addiction
• You need to get your balance above a given quota by playing on a Slot Machine
• You can in-//decrease your bet as you wish to possibly WIN BIG!! or lose it all (much more likely)
• Difficulty increases the Quota
• AMONGUS
• You're shown an array of Images; one of them is not like the others.. it must be up to something! THROW IT INTO SPACE
• Difficulty influences the Image Pool
• Wizard
• catch it
• **quick**
• Difficulty influences the Wizards might
• Butterflies!
• A bunch of Butterflies are set loose on your screen; click all of them
• Difficulty influences how fast and erratic they move
• Sponsor
• Now for a Message from our Sponsors
• Journey of Slime
• Get to the other side while avoiding getting squished by minecarts or drowning in riwers in an isometric 3d frogger minigame
• Difficulty influences the length of the area and the amount of rails//rivers

I have some more ideas as well, those were too ambitious for a quick joke side project though. Maybe I'll add them in the future

There is a Trick to some of them

There is Global and Local Difficulty; The Global Difficulty is shared between all players. When a Player passes a Captcha, their Local Difficulty increases. The Final Difficulty is calculated using global + local

Configurable Evil

• Lethal (default: false)
• You have a limited amount of tries; failing too many Captchas kills you.
• Explosive (default: false)
• You don't just die, you explode (it's a bit of a big explosion, be wary of that)
• I'd recommend only enabling this in Worlds you don't intend on keeping, or are fine with them
• Doesn't have any effect if Lethal is disabled being destroyed a little
• Validation Expiration (default: true)
• Triggers a Captcha when there wasn't one for a certain random range of time
• Not Easy (default: false)
• Makes it so that Captchas that can't be failed or are very easy, won't appear
• Lives (default: 3)
• The Amount of Tries you have to do Captchas before you die
• Doesn't have any effect if Lethal is disabled
• Expiration Delay Min (default: 120)
• The minimum Amount of Seconds before a new random Captcha is triggered
• Doesn't have any effect if Validation Expiration is disabled
• Expiration Delay Range (default: 120)
• The random Range of Seconds before a new random Captcha is triggered
• To better explain it, the delay before a new captcha is triggered is calculated by min + random(range)
• Doesn't have any effect if Validation Expiration is disabled
• Constant Increase Rate (default: 0.002)
• The Global Difficulty is increased by this amount every Second. I wouldn't recommend setting much higher numbers than the default, stuff escalates VERY quickly
• If you don't want the difficulty ot increase over time, set this to 0
• Passing Captchas will still increase the local difficulty

Datapack support

You can make your own Captcha Variants using Datapacks. If you want to add unique images, you'll also need a Resourcepack tho

What Triggers Captchas ?

• Joining a World
• Respawning
• Opening a Loot Chest that hasn't been opened before
• Mining Ores (chance based on Rarity of the Ore)
• Validation Expiration (if enabled)
