Can't get past level 2 with Firefox 78 ESR. "Select all the squares with a Stop Sign", but no squares for selecting show up, so there's nothing to select. Unless I miss a joke somewhere in there?

It took me a bit to figure out that squares stop subdividing at some point (I first thought I had to subdivide into biggest-possible squares, but no selection possible that way) — once at smallest subdivision, just select all the squares covering the stop sign.

I did hit an issue in FF on level 17 (draw a circle): mouse-down triggers a "too closely resembles a dot" and I can't draw a circle on a laptop.

I made to the vegetable level. Tried various combinations but didn't managed to pass. Could someone tell the correct answer?

It wants you to not select bananas and tomatoes (fair), but to select Mr. Potato (lol).

Huh, Mr. Potato? Clearly that is a toy, not a vegetable?!

I gave up at "Mark all squares of the 64th floor of the Empire State Building"[1]. I had even spent an hour on the chess challenge, but that one looked tasteless if I wasn't missing a trick. I thought that I was supposed to try all the floors close to 64 (considering the topmost one below the tower was 86). I really didn't have the patience for that, especially the possibility of missing to mark an overflowing pixel…

I reverse engineered what I could, and it's supposed to be all in row 30, column 4 to 11 (8 squares). You may add 2 more squares on the left or right side (it's just checking it's no more than 10 squares). It's the third row where other buildings show up. https://i.redd.it/rwudh4r46eqf1.png

I'm glad that the programmer put some tolerance to it, but it was impossible for me to know whether he did or not at the time, and that was the end of fun for me :)

level 47 cheat ``` // Keep track of already hit notes const hitNotesSet = new WeakSet(); // Define hit zone (adjust based on your game layout) const hitZoneY = window.innerHeight - 150; // ~150px from bottom const tolerance = 20; // allowed error in pixels function hitNotes() { document.querySelectorAll('.note').forEach(note => { if (hitNotesSet.has(note)) return; // already triggered const rect = note.getBoundingCli…

Why? I did it on the first try and have never played games like osu!, there seems to be quite a bit of tolerance for hitting the wrong keys.

I couldn't do it after 10+ tries... Maybe it would be easier if I remapped keys exactly to side by side.

I miss when there was more of this on the internet. One small correction: I like the gotcha in the vegetable selection (an avocado is a fruit), but it allowed me to pass with eggplant selected, which is also botanically a fruit.
