New video is up.

Quote
A standard UH3 articulated robot, active fluid memory with an approximated intelligence shows a much more active mind spontaneously developed a desire to socialize from observing human interaction?

intelligence first noted by Security Officer Douglas Strohmaier while investigating an automated distress signal coming from Construct Depot 11 Mockingbird had pried another UH3 open and removed its AI-unit made motions resembling those of eating, moving it close to its camera, and making sounds similar to smacking of the lips it introduced itself as Chief Engineer Adam Golaski.

Quarantined in T260 Machine Rep during the night it had taken itself apart. AM Engineer Imogen Reed quickly records an interview in case the Mockingbird would continue its self-destruction. appears there is a real Adam Golaski working at Omicron. Invited Chief Engineer Golaski to talk to the impostor construct.

Also, I wonder if the camera calibration we see at the beginning of every video references an actual game mechanic. Will you be trying to make cameras work to get good shots of something? Putting them out of focus so you can't be seen?

Haven't looked at this, but had an idea for a horror game due to it.

Your mind is trapped in the machine. Impossibly, you still control your body. You may only see yourself from security cameras as you try to move your body with your disembodied (ha) mind. It's probably been done before.
But has it been done before with horror?

And that reminds me of some other game I came across years ago but can't recall the name of: You and this girl are in different parts of this ship; she's in the main area, you're in some kind of a control room watching her via monitors and able to manipulate various lights and locks. You have to use the lights to indirectly direct her to do various things to progress.

...Got kind of annoying fast though.

In terms of the name, consider this:

Quote
so·ma 
/ˈsōmə/
Noun
1. The parts of an organism other than the reproductive cells.
2. An intoxicating drink prepared from a plant and used in Vedic ritual, believed to be the drink of the gods.

I'm going for the first meaning.

That game is called "eXperience112" (or "The Experiment" depending on where you live).

So... the early Resident Evil games with their silly camera angles?

Anyways, posting to watch the thread and its lovely robot cannibalism.

I guess it's never too earlier to talk about something that won't be done for years.

There was also Lifeline, where you had to issue voice instructions to a dumb blonde who, in her own words, "had good reactions, but poor decision-making skills". Probably just as hard(if not harder) as blinking lights, due to voice recognition technology.
