Wolfenstein would be better. Prove you're human by shooting Nazis.

[-] luciferofastora@lemmy.zip 6 points 6 days ago

Actually, can we do that IRL?

[-] Zozano@aussie.zone 2 points 6 days ago

But you only need to kill one to pass the Captcha.

Mecha Hitler on "I Am Death Incarnate" difficulty.

They've done well to get all the way through to E1M9 without killing three monsters

[-] mvirts@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago

Lol this would have been a valid captcha until 2016

[-] Albbi@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 week ago

Yeah that ain't happening on mobile with no strafe.

[-] Kichae@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 week ago

Go on. Play like it's 1993 all over again.

[-] sploosh@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

You could assign keys to strafe in 1993.

How do I press Alt on my phone?

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

Get USB OTG and plug in any keyboard. Or you could use a bluetooth one.

[-] Kichae@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago

Tell me you played with strafe in 1993 and I'll never belueve another word out of your mouth.

Me and my cousins absolutely used strafe back in the early 90s. And forwards. And backwards. We were so excited every time we got into a gunfight we would have moved vertically too if there was an option for it.

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

There was an option for that. It was called "Descent".

[-] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com -2 points 1 week ago

Nobody I knew in the early 90s played with strafe. That wasn’t a thing that existed. I couldn’t agree with you more.

[-] sploosh@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

I have distinct memories of my dad teaching me to strafe on his 486-powered laptop with a laggy monochrome screen. Maybe it was a modifier key that changed left/right to strafing? It was definitely a feature in the OG Doom and Wolfenstein 3D before it.

[-] grozzle@lemm.ee 5 points 6 days ago

yeah, it was Alt. i don't know what's wrong with these other people.

[-] sploosh@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

They don't want to admit they never bothered looking at the control options.

[-] VerilyFemme@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 1 week ago

Found the robot

I proved I was human on mobile without strafe. You just have to let them come to you. The wall protect you.

[-] Albbi@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago

I ain't no pansy ass spawn camper! That ain't how you play doom!

... But yeah that works.

[-] lud@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

I did it without camping. Only took like 4 tries.

Just run to the hole upfront that's slightly to the left and shoot while running there.

I even managed to grab a shotgun.

[-] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

Still no idea where they got those sounds.
