The scientists at Natural Machines, Inc. need to collect data on human responses to physical situations in order to train their AI. To that end, they have developed a physics simulation capable of eliciting a variety of behaviors.

Now, they just need an operator: you.

Wow thats awesome! Great game and clever use of the animations. 

Very cool idea!

We are also using an OS sim (Win98-inspired) setting for our game, although it's in a different genre (mystery).

Good luck!

Thanks! I mostly used it is an aesthetic escape hatch since the most intuitive art I could find for the puzzle were animals.

Looking forward to seeing yours, too!
