Under rating threshold (show) A.I. offers to reply to question but don't understand e.g. "why am I here?" or "how to get out of this room?" yet. Would be awesome to get more possibilities in replies there :-)

Under rating threshold (show) @snake2000 Most AI are programmed with a sort of 'points system' which dictates what they want to do at any time. Their goal is to get the most points, and they will stop at nothing to get these points. This means that the AI can definitely lie to you, as long as the goal of the AI is in some way progressed, e.g the AI in the game might get points for making you stay, and so it lies to you to get you to stay.

Under rating threshold (show) wait, how is the AI able to lie to you? Only if the programmer designed it to lie. The “intelligence” in AI is based on mathematical intelligence. It only does what the “donor” of the intelligence wants it to do. So. someone that made that ship, programmed the AI to lie to you...

Under rating threshold (show) If you respond with "not dead" when the AI asks you where you are, the AI congratulates your sense of humor.

Under rating threshold (show) I played the game years ago, and it seems the graphics have gotten a little smaller, making the 'food' and writing over the door blurrier. Not actually sure where AGS was, I suspect it was written in the room but now can't be read. Did Kong change something about how this game displays?

Under rating threshold (show) That's some nice work you did there! I would be so happy if you could make a prequel for this game, like why they went to space and how they got to going straight towards a star.

Under rating threshold (show) Getting a game over right out of the starting gate because you told the AI to go F*ck itself repeatedly is way too much fun.

Under rating threshold (show) What's the music? The Kevin Mcleod part is obvious, but the sheer amount of music makes the actual tracks hard to find. Looking for the ending OST specifically, been bugging me for a while now.

Under rating threshold (show) I loved the AI so much, I typed in "I love you" and was surprised to see it actually yielded a response. To the creator- I love your games, and I feel so connected and able to relate to the AI, who comes across as being incredibly human and beautiful, one of my favorite characters of all time in any game!

Under rating threshold (show) If you discover any two space labels, the AI will reveal the truth. Ones I've found: Escape Pod, Astro Food (ask for food/drink), Artificial Gravity System (ask about the AGS), United Space Agency (Ask to play chess, then press 2 for info).
