To [ERROR] is [!HUMAN]

Gauge your empathy with our patented verbal-command triggered empathy test. Remember: there are only two possible answers. THERE ARE NO OTHER SOLUTIONS.

Presented by Empathetic Induction Initiative solutions, a division of Team Equipe Etoile Reborn.

The following document outlines the contractual obligations of Test Subject Designation 27431 (henceforth referred to as “Subject”) and the Empathetic Induction Initiative laboratory (henceforth referred to as “Employer”). This agreement recognises the Subject’s purpose is solely to participate in the “artificial repopulation effort” programme. This includes emulating human behaviour through intelligent conditioning and empathy training. The Subject waives all rights to their mind and body to the Employer for this purpose. The Subject recognises that there are no alternatives to the presented options, and will not attempt to seek them out. Any attempt to damage, circumvent, or otherwise subvert the project through any means may incur punitive measures, including but not limited to: termination, dismemberment, ridicule, infection with a deadly virus, censure, extortion, fines, redaction, and light tickling.

By saying “I AGREE” out loud, you are accepting everything outlined in the legal contract and testing may proceed immediately.

To [ERROR] is [!HUMAN] (not human, for the non-programmers out there) is a narrative puzzle game you play entirely with your voice. You are a test subject meant to try to emulate human behaviour. You demonstrate this by replying to a series of moral dilemmas. However, computers are not the best at understanding the nuances involved in these sorts of questions. Perhaps there are more than just two solutions to these problems?

This game was created as part of JamNation 2.02, hosted by Unity Technologies. The constraints were "Unity only" and "One input", and the theme was "Diversity/Non-Human".

This game uses the dictation recognizer feature in Unity. Dictation recognizer is currently functional only on Windows 10, and requires that dictation is permitted in the user's Speech privacy policy (Settings->Privacy->Speech, inking & typing). If dictation is not enabled, DictationRecognizer will fail and the game will not be playable.

Gauge votre empathie avec notre test breveté contrôlé par la voix. N'oublie pas: il n'y a que deux choix possibles. IL N'Y A PAS AUTRE OPTIONS.

To [ERROR] is [!HUMAN] est un jeu puzzle narratif joué entièrement avec la voix. Tu es un participant de test qui doit émuler le comportement human. Tu démontres cela en proposant des solutions à des dilemmes moraux. Par contre, les ordinateurs ne sont pas les meilleures à comprendre les nuances de ces types de questions. Il y a possiblement plus que juste les deux solutions proposées?

Ce jeu était créé pour JamNation 2.02, hébergé par Unity Technologies. Les contraintes étaient que le jeu soit construit sur Unity et qu'il n'utilise qu'un seul type d'interaction. Le thème était "diversité/non-humain".

Ce jeu utilise le dictation recognizer de Unity. Dictation recognizer ne fonctionne que sur Windows 10 et il faut que le dictation soit permis dans la police de permissions de voix (Paramètres->Confidentialité-Voix, écriture, manuscrite et saisie->Activez les services). Il faut également que la langue principale de l'ordinateur soit mis à anglais afin de bien recconnaitre les mots de controle (Paramètres->Heure et langue->Voix->Langue de la fonction voix).
