I love Pico-8. This is quite impressive given the constraints you had to deal with. What techniques did you have to use to fit it all?


Oh yeah thanks. I had to do lots of stuff to make it fit: - Run a genetic algorithm to find the best move ordering to save on space. - Sprites are only 1 bit per pixel, with a 3rd color faked with outlining. - Lots of refactoring, code minification, and custom scripts preprocessing the code.

This was a project of about 14 months, and I thought it wouldn't be possible multiple times. But relieved it is finally released :)


That way you can create a single link and know who has filled it out rather than have to create several.


Generate a link by clicking the "Create human check" button. Then send this link to a suspected robot. They'll be asked to fill out a captcha, and you'll be notified upon verification.


Here's one example if people want to see verification work: - Admin URL: https://r-u-human.com/admin/64e03f296568976c - Link to share: https://r-u-human.com/75a20d451e7661d8


Heads up: the "names" are not as heavily moderated as HN comments.


"Sorry I'm not allowed to follow links."


Honestly, most real human chat-center/help-desk folk are probably juggling ten conversations and really aren't allowed to follow links to strange websites.
