What If Making A Password Was A PUZZLE GAME?

- The Password Game - please choose a password. Now one with a capital letter. Now one with a number. Now one with a special character. Now one that includes the current phase of the moon. For security reasons, please add the dam moon phase to your password.

"Please don't overeat"
Foreshadowing at its finest.
that's when I noped out, when Paul overate.
“Please don’t overeat”
Paul: “I don’t think I will listen to this human”
First time I’ve seen Tyler quit a game out of pure frustration. This game deserves it tho.
It’s actually painful to play (mentally)
5-12 flashback
This game isn't about winning. It's about how long you suffer before you lose.
@@maicee7603I’m guessing you are referring to the annoying baba is you level?
@@DannyBob526 You cultured person.
Same
I made it to rule 31 and just decided to quit right there
As someone who’s tried and failed to beat this, I give you my condolences 😔
I gave up on 22 i think lol
I gave up on the fire part
@@DDosks thats one of the worst, kills many games
I got it easily, but the TH-cam link is the worst part, followed by hex codes
@@Xx_babanne_avcisi27_xX i gave up after 31
The remaining rules are:
29 - All Roman numerals must be in Times New Roman
30 - The font size of every digit must be equal to its square
31 - Every instance of the same letter must have a different font size
32 - Your password must include the length of your password
33 - The length of your password must be a prime number
34 - This rule is skipped!
35 - Your password must include the current time
And finally, you have to confirm your password by typing it in again within 2 minutes.
Yeah, it is def possible but too many things have to line up. I think a lot of the rules overlap too much to make it fun.
Of course Rule 34 is skipped. lol
@alittar8062 the speedruns of this game are insane though, they got full spreadsheets of different urls and everything
I've beaten this game myself, and there is no time requirement for retyping the password at the end (to my knowledge).
The time requirement got removed, but you've got it besides that.
FYI the next few rules involve having a prime number length, and including the length in the password itself, then at the very end it asks for the current time, so if you played at night you're probably screwed unless its past midnight
you can actually change the time on your system and it is probaly the intended solution (otherwise you would have to update the password every minute)
@@Nico_com_c I looked it up, and the very last one is the most unfair... It erases your password and gives you a short period in which to re-enter the whole thing EXACTLY as it was before the game deletes it:D So unless you copied it JUST before entering the last piece of the previous rule... You are screwed:D
@@Vertraicit doesnt delete the password, u just need to retype it but u can see your password
@@Nico_com_c yeah, honestly that feels a little cheaty to me. Like I know it's a troll game and it's kinda whatever but in general I try to avoid changing my clock, and so I assume others do the same
@@underscore. not as bad, but still awful
I really hope somebody takes this concept and makes a puzzler out of it, has so much potential beyond just a troll game!
i think this is perfect as a troll game and having it be actually enjoyable would sort of ruin the point. this game is taking the annoying "your password must include special characters" to the extreme
This concept was actually done in one of the puzzles in the galactic puzzle hunt in 2020 (or maybe 2021?) It was actually pretty well done - harder to solve, but not frustrating in terms of time pressure making you lose and having to start again. But the way rules were added required changes to previous iterations - often drastic ones, and just coming up with what sequence allows you to move on, took a lot of exploration.
Well there was that one puzzle in the Witness which made you find a solution that worked for all previous panels, and I really liked the concept. I can definitely see a full game based on it
It's not actually a troll game. The puzzle is very solvable just incredibly hard. I've seen other TH-camrs solve it.
I'm actually building my own version currently after running into this game recently! I'm planning on being able to have it be some what modular so people can possibly add in their own rules and such, I do like how some of the rules require you to answer questions with niche information or random words so I do want to keep that aspect of it but also focus more on the puzzle side of things. Currently I have a working prototype that I'll probably turn into a github website soon :p
The fact Tyler got the chess notation so quickly means he is centuries beyond us, man lives in 3023
Chess Battle Aliens
thats not a leap year test failed
As a 1000 rated player. It was pretty simple.
As a 500 blitz player it's kinda fine
And in this position, Tyler sacrifices, THE ROOOOOOOK
This game is insane lol. I didn't copy my password before clicking submit, and I instantly regretted it because you have to retype your password before you can beat the game, so I just edited the HTML to allow you to copy it cause I was just so done with this game
I honestly think that's an acceptable and maybe intended solution, since you'd already (typically) have used the browser's Dev Tools / Inspector for the color code.
Here are some tips for anyone who wants to beat the game.
1. Place a lot of unimportant symbols (dashes, periods, etc.) at the beginning. These are important for the “Wingdings” and _“Italics”_ rules, and also for controlling the length of the password. Spam at least 50 of them. Emojis are allowed. Zeros are not recommended. Never *EVER* use letters (e.g. _HHHHHHH_ )
2. For the TH-cam video rule, for lower times, you are better of searching “for X minutes and XX seconds” in TH-cam. For larger times, it’s really just up to luck. Note: Videos that are one seconds off are acceptable.
3. You can feed Paul up to eight caterpillars before he is overfed. Keep that in mind when searching for TH-cam videos and waiting for the suitable time. Don’t forget to make them Wingdings and Italics.
4. You can make HEX codes lowercase to avoid C’s and D’s. Reload the HEX code if the numbers are very large.
5. If you are playing the game right now, *FEED PAUL!* Maybe set an alarm for 2 minutes if you are struggling with this part.
Additionally to that:
Reroll the captcha to have no numbers. Also, reset the game whenever it forces a big number periodic symbol on you, like it happened in the video with the Chess solution for example. Also, memorize the geo guesser solutions, they repeat eventually. 0 is a valid leapyear. Check if lowercase is possible to avoid periodic numbers, for example "iamloved" removes the 53 value I. The only 2 valid solutions to the "multiply to 35" rule are "XXXV" (preferred) and "V" + "VII".
Make sure to ctrl+v the final solution.
Use a second browser window to always be able to have an eye on paul.
And expect to reset more often than not, this is a game of trial and error and learning. One day, you get a lucky seed and do it first try
Also almost any youtube rule above 20 minutes is more likely than not a reset. 2 out of 3 links have a roman numeral and are invalid, and 4 out of 5 links have too many numbers, or periodic table values. And low time youtube links are easier to find. If you get past the youtube video with a low number, low periodic table count, and it's valid in general, you got past the hardest part of the game. At least imo the hardest part
Two extra strategies that helped me through my final (and successful) run of the game:
1) Put the window of the game on one half of the screen, and look up resources (like the youtube urls) on the other half. It makes it much easier to keep an eye on Paul instead of changing tabs every few minutes.
2) When looking for youtube urls, the easiest method that I've found so far is looking up speedruns. There are millions of speedruns out there, so you're bound to get a ton of videos around the time that you request. Put it in the format of "XX:XX speedrun".
111 👍
I also got to the hex code
As a tip to anyone masochistic enough to try, you can inspect element and get the exact color much more easily and quickly
Was going to say this
there are a ton of ways to do it, surprised that's where he gave up to be honest. Not sure how he even ended up with the wrong hex, even the copy paste method doesn't distort it enough to change the hex values.
I bet Photoshop or whatever app he had open uses a different color space than his monitor which would distort the color, but that's just my best guess either that or his screenshot app does something weird
@@art0007i i think he just took a screenshot and pasted it in the editor, no? So it should be the same color/hex regardless of his editor settings or monitor settings.
Here's a question I can actually weigh in on! Windows colour profiles do actually warp colours on monitors, even in software, which means that any high-level screen capture software would report the wrong colour. I had quite a few painful experiences with that using the PowerToys colour picker :p
no way you played this 🤣
edit: noo only 7 rules left
Cool password you got there would be a shame if it were set on fire...
editors are the true MVPs for this one. amazing job
The fact that you needed and had a video which goes for exactly 31:01 and the video itself was self-aware of it is hilarious.
Well it wasn't his video but that is pretty funny
Now I'm wondering if that password at the start was his real one
hm
Let's try it
@@Tilde_Shiino
Nah, hunter2 is a meme password
Shits been a meme since 2004
6:40 You could delete everything in the URL after the "&" symbol - everything after the "?" is a list of parameter-value pairs, and a valid TH-cam video link only needs the v parameter.
@@theendofthestart8179 It's an excuse to share a useful bit of knowledge about how the internet works. What's the point of saying you don't care?
@@theendofthestart8179what's the point of eating your weight in salt and shitting on everyone in the comments?
@@theendofthestart8179 so you just do it because you're a POS?
How easy this game is to complete depends on so many things.
Todays wordle answer, the random numbers you get, the hexes you can achieve, the chess problem… all of these are random in a sense. This is the first “puzzle” game I’ve seen with so much randomness
Probably a good idea to get the hex color is to inspect the HTML and copy it from the developer tools.
For anyone wanting to try this game - it is nearly impossible unless you play around 1 or 2 o'clock. Numbers are the biggest issue.
Another couple tips - You can have 5 caterpillars in front of Paul, and I was able to use Microsoft Paint's color dropper and an online converter from RBG to hex - but it's a little inconsistent. I'd recommend trying the game once and then curating a set of tabs for the chess/periodic table/etc puzzles.
10/11/12/3 o clocks are also okay
Just wait until time is XX:X0
You can change the time (I did on windows 10)
You can actually also have up to 8 caterpillars
I bet you can see the exact colour code in pages source
This game actually has a decent speedrunning scene. The current WR is less than a minute.
the most annoying part is definitely the youtube link, there's a document online that contains a good link for every length the game can give you, also you can see the RGB values of the color with inspect element
I'm glad to see you've done this game.
Hope everything goes well!
Since RCE did a video on this, I knew it was a matter of time.
Puzzle Time!
This video was super engaging, it seems a third editor has been a fantastic addition to the channel!
Dude I can’t believe I beat this on my first try, you got it tyler! I’d suggest just taking breaks when you get frustrated (note that you’ll still need to feed Paul during breaks) I ended up beating it in about 9 hours! :)
you fed that mf for 9 hours???????
This actually seemed like it could be a fun puzzle game, but after the youtube url and the hex code for the color it lost me. But a very neat idea with the chess board and using Roman numerals etc.
well at least the color and captchas you can reroll it to get a better fit, the problem is with the chess piece, or youtube's url if it gives you romans, numbers and periodic elements since its case sensitive and you cant reroll the time if you not reset the entire game
this video was really well edited!
Btw, if anyone wants to use emjois basically anywhere on your computer. Win key+; will bring up the emoji menu
Geez, we need people like you, I gave up on the Wordle prompt. Very fun, thank you :)
I loved this video! I’ve been waiting for someone I watch to play this game
Yep, that was my exact reaction to this game as well. I gave up on when the egg was set on fire, but it's nice to see you tried at least a little bit more.
I’ve been seeing let’s plays of this all over my feed but i knew you’d be playing it so I’ve been waiting until the video is out!!
Well might as well check out those other guys let’s plays now huh
I was trying to play this with a team of 3 people, we got to the last requirement. It asked for the current time to be added. It screwed with the 25 total and was a balancing act that every minute was overhauled to still fit.
Hell yeah! was waiting for ya to play this!
really good editing!
You'd need like three people perfectly collaborating on one shared computer screen to beat this 😆
No you don't, all you need is a brain
this video was actually really fun to watch
What an aggravating- looking game! Thanks for the content
YESSS I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
2:50 That moment when you accidentally tell your editor his country doesn't exist. 😂
If you want to attempt it again, you can use inspect element on the page to get the rgb code for the color, which you can then convert into hex
1:56 very nice editing
You have to beat it! Such good content
Yes! I played it a few weeks ago and now all my favourite youtubers are playing it
I don't blame you for giving up. I think you played enough to give us the idea of the game and make us laugh without touring yourself too much
great video!
I started with Earth in wordle for months straight so seeing it here kinda took me by surprise
I've done the same with Hello and once it was actually it XD (btw was playing cowordle as username Tacocat)
this editing is VERY good
One of my favourite parts of watching TH-camrs play this is them getting to the wordle one and just playing wordle in the video lol
That was amazing thank you
I saw the betas on neal’s Twitter, been waiting to play this!
Played this game a couple days ago and the wordle answer was earth, good to know we were playing at the same time
0:43 shell?!! Like the oil companies, bruhhhh😂😂
This was a fun bite sized video, thanks for at least giving the game a try
This is amazing
"hopefully the next one is actually good" I dunno, this was pretty great to watch
Yayy
I have been waiting for this game
I think the problem with the hex color code is that in some software numbers pairs are read backwards f.e. instead of A0FFD2 it would be D2FFA0. Happend to me while I was trying to do something in GameMaker :/
Ahh, a fellow GameMaker user
Dude I played this game blind for the first time yesterday, got to the very last rule, was lining up my numbers to fit the character count, add up to 25, and prepare for the change of the hour in 10 minutes time where it would all line up.
As I was changing the font size of the 4 in “401” (my prime number character count) to 16px, I realised I hadn’t fed Paul in a while, panicked, scrolled up, saw he had no food, ctrl-v to give him food, but it pasted the hex code for the colour I’d had to change earlier instead of a caterpillar, and immediately afterwards, “Paul has Starved”.
That’s the first time a game has nearly made me cry since FFX.
You're a mad man.good run. Mabey next time
Pro tip: window’s first party software ”powertoys” has a color picker tool which you can activate with a keyboard shortcut
After watching NLs video on this I'm happy to let this one go like this.
If nothing else this game is a masterful joke about the frustration of password requirements that are inevitably easier for a computer to guess than for a human to remember
The height of those hoops they make you jump through is just not worth the payout. I am impressed you made it as far as you did 👏
The fact that NL beat this and Tyler couldn't baffles me
First ytber who actually put in his own password 😂
It get's even more BS later lol, it's almost an impossible game to beat if you don't get the right stuff
4:50 😂got me rolling on the flo-
i don't think a single person didn't rage quit this game.
I've never played that game, so technically I've never ragequit it either.
Northernlion did it :)
I watched Northernlion finish it, but it took an army of twitch chatters to croud source a working solution
That northernlion livestream was goldennnnn. Cant believe he didnt quit
I'm scared to imagine what would happen when IShowSpeed plays this game
Fun video. Above and beyond
I don’t know if your chosen software will do it, but gimp allows you to pick a color from any pixel on the screen, no image importing required.
Now this came out pretty darn well :P
So stressful trying to reassess your periodic table choices while managing Paul's dietary needs.
GG for getting this far tho! Ngl I failed at the youtube URL and sacrificing letters 😭
as someone who has beaten this game, yeah, i dont blame you for giving up, it sucks
especially when it tells you to have your password include your password length and then tells you to have your password length be a prime number
This game doesn't work, no game hides critical information that makes you reset the entire game if you dont know previously before the time to execute it.
The final part of 'retyping it all' is a real troll, you can only do it if you get there first to know about it, fail, then save the password in the second try...
@@Mostbee i got the retyping part first try by just copy pasting the code of the password
and yeah, its not a well-designed game, because it isn't a game, it's supposed to be a funny joke, which i think it is
This was hilarious. Please win it!
Thx 4 the wordle answer! :D
I think it would be actually really cool if the devs made a nontroll option gamemode where it was actual puzzles and stuff you had to solve and put the answers in, rather than just constant pain. This is funny no doubt, but after one go, idk if it's really fun to try again. Especially having to climb back up to the point where you lost.
0:40 shellout
I quit out of this game when I hit the chess puzzle and tbh I'm glad I did, it seems like I got the fun portion without hitting the serious trolls
I think it is both a troll and a puzzle game. I think if you replayed it knowing many of the rules in a similar way as you would a rogue-lite, you would do way better because you know the pitfalls to avoid. And because you avoid the pitfalls, you spend way less time & effort trying to fix up the stuff you break along the way while putting literal and proverbial fires out.
God... finally aliensrock play this game...
Honestly my first attempt gave me a video length that I literally could not find at all (except one, but that screwed over EVERYTHING)
"password_password_will_always_be_my_password" will always be my password
hacking your account in progress...
i actually beated this game! it gets even funnier at the end to clear the 'sumbers add to 25' rule when you must include the exact lenght of your password as a number (whch has to be a prime number) and the EXACT CURRENT TIME
thank god someone finally said it.
Firefox has an built-in tool to analyze hex code of colours if you ever want to give it another shot
Yay, new video
(Update) I enjoyed the video
my name is hunter, the beginning scared me cause i thought he was about to type my actual password
finally, a puzzle game that could best him
lore accurate password creation
"Please don't over-eat..."
The game: "Ohohoho"
Once i beat this game, i know what to expect and beating it again isn't that big of a deal honestly
So nice of him to give us his password.
I am so surprised you lasted this long with such a random troll game with no solid solutions as well. To be fair that was extremely funny 😂😂😂 trying the fuckin impossible with these codes
I Cntrl+I to inspect the webpage and be able to read the exact color
Also, Paul can be given more caterpillars in order to give you more breathing room. I kept the catapillars at 6
5:24 'top ten photos taken minutes before disaster'
Darn it he didn't finish telling us his password
Oh boy
I really want to see people speedrun this game.
