I've never played this kind of game on PC, which use face emotion as the main game method. I've only seen this on Playstation or Xbox. Despite the emotion recognize accuracy isn't too high, but ur degree of innovation is very high! The concept of the game is very novel! I can feel the relation between the game and the theme. The whole graphic and interaction design is pretty excellent, too! I really appreciate to your achievement that u can make this surprising progress in about 72 hours!

You need to manipulate the robot to interact with the aliens, and when they show emotions, use your own face to make specific expressions. Transmit these pictures to the alien to match each other's *mirror neurons*. This will increase the calibration level of the interstellar translator until it is fully calibrated. \n\nThroughout the process, a cute but snarky colleague, *Vera*, will guide you through the employee training and provide hints. In this playthrough, there are a total of three alien lifeforms for you to calibrate.\n\n> \u6b22\u8fce\u52a0\u5165\u201cSignal :D\u201d\u8ba1\u5212\uff0c\u8fd9\u91cc\u662f\u5168\u94f6\u6cb3\u7cfb\u6700\u5c34\u5c2c\u3001\u9884\u7b97\u6700\u4f4e\uff0c\u4f46\u53ef\u80fd\u4e5f\u662f\u6700\u91cd\u8981\u7684\u5916\u4ea4\u90e8\u95e8\u3002\n> \n> \u4f60\u9700\u8981\u5728\u7a7a\u95f4\u7ad9\u4e2d\u64cd\u4f5c\u4e00\u53f0\u8001\u5f0f\u8ba1\u7b97\u673a\u9065\u63a7\u673a\u5668\u4eba\u548c\u5916\u661f\u751f\u547d\u4ea4\u6d41\uff0c\u4f60\u9700\u8981\u64cd\u7eb5\u673a\u5668\u4eba\u4e0e\u5916\u661f\u751f\u547d\u4e92\u52a8\uff0c\u5e76\u5728\u5bf9\u65b9\u4ea7\u751f\u60c5\u7eea\u65f6\uff0c\u7528\u4f60\u7684\u8138\u53bb\u505a\u51fa\u7279\u5b9a\u7684\u8868\u60c5\u5e76\u5c06\u8fd9\u5f20\u56fe\u7247\u4f20\u8f93\u7ed9\u5916\u661f\u751f\u547d\u4ee5\u5339\u914d\u5f7c\u6b64\u7684*\u955c\u50cf\u795e\u7ecf\u5143*\u3002\u8fd9\u4f1a\u4f7f\u5f97\u661f\u9645\u7ffb\u8bd1\u5668\u6821\u51c6\u5ea6\u4e0a\u5347\uff0c\u76f4\u5230\u5b8c\u5168\u6821\u51c6\u4e3a\u6b62\u3002\n> \n> \u8fc7\u7a0b\u4e2d\u4f1a\u6709\u4e00\u4f4d\u53ef\u7231\u6bd2\u820c\u7684\u540c\u4e8b*\u8587\u62c9*\u5e26\u4f60\u8d70\u5b8c\u5458\u5de5\u57f9\u8bad\u6d41\u7a0b\u5e76\u7ed9\u4e88\u63d0\u793a\uff0c\u672c\u6b21\u6e38\u73a9\u4e2d\u5171\u6709\u4e09\u79cd\u5916\u661f\u751f\u547d\u9700\u8981\u4f60\u6821\u51c6\u3002\n\n---\n\n### \ud83c\udfae HOW TO PLAY?\n\nFollow *Vera's* instructions to complete the tutorial. At the very beginning of the game, you need to make five corresponding expressions to input basic data into our facial image recognition system. Basically, turn on your webcam, make the expressions, and wait for the progress bar to complete. This process takes about a minute or two. \n\nAll subsequent operations only require clicking buttons in the game with your mouse. Entering a specific four-digit code and clicking confirm will make the robot perform a specific action. The specific numerical codes are written on sticky notes attached to the console for you to check at any time. \n\nThe monitor in the top right is linked to your real-life webcam. Once you complete the calibration, the corresponding facial emotion recognition will be displayed on the small screen below. When you need to send a picture to an alien, click the \"Send\" button to transmit it. \n\n**Please note that to avoid bugs (yes, it really is quite buggy), the input keys in the game are disabled while Vera is speaking.**\n\n> \u8ddf\u968f*\u8587\u62c9*\u7684\u63d0\u793a\u5b8c\u6210\u65b0\u624b\u6559\u7a0b\u3002\u5728\u6e38\u620f\u7684\u6700\u5f00\u59cb\u9700\u8981\u4f60\u9884\u5148\u6446\u51fa\u5bf9\u5e94\u7684\u4e94\u79cd\u8868\u60c5\u6765\u7ed9\u6211\u4eec\u7684\u9762\u90e8\u56fe\u50cf\u8bc6\u522b\u7cfb\u7edf\u8f93\u5165\u57fa\u7840\u6570\u636e\uff0c\u57fa\u672c\u4e0a\u5c31\u662f\u6253\u5f00\u6444\u50cf\u5934\u6446\u597d\u8868\u60c5\u7136\u540e\u7b49\u8fdb\u5ea6\u6761\u8d70\u5b8c\u3002\u8fd9\u4e2a\u8fc7\u7a0b\u5927\u6982\u8981\u82b1\u4e2a\u4e00\u4e24\u5206\u949f\u5de6\u53f3\u3002\n> \n> \u540e\u7eed\u7684\u6240\u6709\u64cd\u4f5c\u90fd\u53ea\u9700\u8981\u9f20\u6807\u70b9\u51fb\u6e38\u620f\u4e2d\u7684\u6309\u94ae\u5373\u53ef\uff0c\u8f93\u5165\u7279\u5b9a\u7684\u56db\u4f4d\u6570\u5b57\u540e\u70b9\u51fb\u786e\u8ba4\u53ef\u4ee5\u4f7f\u673a\u5668\u4eba\u505a\u7279\u5b9a\u884c\u52a8\u3002\u5177\u4f53\u7684\u6570\u5b57\u4ee3\u7801\u7531\u4fbf\u7b7e\u7eb8\u8d34\u5728\u64cd\u4f5c\u53f0\u4e0a\u53ef\u4ee5\u968f\u65f6\u67e5\u9605\u3002\n> \n> \u53f3\u4e0a\u65b9\u7684\u663e\u793a\u5c4f\u94fe\u63a5\u7684\u662f\u4f60\u73b0\u5b9e\u4e2d\u7684\u6444\u50cf\u5934\uff0c\u5f53\u4f60\u5b8c\u6210\u6821\u51c6\u540e\uff0c\u5bf9\u5e94\u7684\u8868\u60c5\u60c5\u7eea\u8bc6\u522b\u4f1a\u663e\u793a\u5728\u4e0b\u65b9\u7684\u5c0f\u5c4f\u5e55\u5185\uff0c\u5728\u4f60\u9700\u8981\u53d1\u9001\u56fe\u7247\u7ed9\u5916\u661f\u751f\u547d\u65f6\uff0c\u70b9\u51fbsend\u6309\u94ae\u5373\u53ef\u5c06\u8be5\u56fe\u7247\u53d1\u9001\u51fa\u53bb\u3002\n> \n> **\u9700\u8981\u6ce8\u610f\u7684\u662f\uff0c\u4e3a\u4e86\u907f\u514dbug\uff08\u6ca1\u9519\u771f\u7684\u5f88\u5bb9\u6613bug\uff09\uff0c\u5728\u8587\u62c9\u8bf4\u8bdd\u65f6\u6e38\u620f\u4e2d\u7684\u8f93\u5165\u952e\u662f\u4e0d\u53ef\u4f7f\u7528\u7684\u3002**\n\n---\n\n### \ud83d\udcac A Few Words from the Developer:\n\n1. This is the second time for us (the designer and programmer) participating in Ludum Dare, and the rest of our teammates are newcomers. It is also our first time making this type of game, so we hope to receive plenty of feedback and suggestions.\n2. We actually made this game to test whether facial emotion recognition technology could be integrated into gameplay. I'm not sure if you guys have played this type of game before, but I'd highly recommend *Before Your Eyes*\u2014it's a very interesting experience.\n3. Originally, we wanted to create topological dialogue branches for Vera. For example, a scrapped \"rewind\" feature involved Vera remotely using a memory-erasing device on the alien so we could try again, which would have led to her making more sarcastic remarks during the second interaction. However, due to too many bugs, we had to cut them for now.\n4. We initially planned to have more aliens and a richer variety of actions, but our artists are still in school and the schedule was too tight to finish everything. We might update it later if we get the chance.\n5. Anyway, we hope everyone enjoys Ludum Dare! We really love the atmosphere of this community.

Many players mentioned that the text scrolls too fast. We have added a button that allows you to manually trigger the next line of dialogue, and you can also choose to use the `Spacebar` to trigger it. You can still scroll up in the dialogue interface to read all the conversation history.\n2. We received a lot of feedback that entering four-digit codes to control the robot is a bit tedious. To preserve the game's flavor, it's hard to remove this feature completely. However, we have added direct keyboard support!

You need to manipulate the robot to interact with the aliens, and when they show emotions, use your own face to make specific expressions. Transmit these pictures to the alien to match each other's *mirror neurons*. This will increase the calibration level of the interstellar translator until it is fully calibrated. \n\nThroughout the process, a cute but snarky colleague, *Vera*, will guide you through the employee training and provide hints.

At the very beginning of the game, you need to make five corresponding expressions to input basic data into our facial image recognition system. Basically, turn on your webcam, make the expressions, and wait for the progress bar to complete. This process takes about a minute or two. \n\nAll subsequent operations only require clicking buttons in the game with your mouse. Entering a specific four-digit code and clicking confirm will make the robot perform a specific action. The specific numerical codes are written on sticky notes attached to the console for you to check at any time. \n\nThe monitor in the top right is linked to your real-life webcam. Once you complete the calibration, the corresponding facial emotion recognition will be displayed on the small screen below. When you need to send a picture to an alien, click the \"Send\" button to transmit it. \n\n**Please note that to avoid bugs (yes, it really is quite buggy), the input keys in the game are disabled while Vera is speaking.**\n\n> \u8ddf\u968f*\u8587\u62c9*\u7684\u63d0\u793a\u5b8c\u6210\u65b0\u624b\u6559\u7a0b\u3002\u5728\u6e38\u620f\u7684\u6700\u5f00\u59cb\u9700\u8981\u4f60\u9884\u5148\u6446\u51fa\u5bf9\u5e94\u7684\u4e94\u79cd\u8868\u60c5\u6765\u7ed9\u6211\u4eec\u7684\u9762\u90e8\u56fe\u50cf\u8bc6\u522b\u7cfb\u7edf\u8f93\u5165\u57fa\u7840\u6570\u636e\uff0c\u57fa\u672c\u4e0a\u5c31\u662f\u6253\u5f00\u6444\u50cf\u5934\u6446\u597d\u8868\u60c5\u7136\u540e\u7b49\u8fdb\u5ea6\u6761\u8d70\u5b8c\u3002\u8fd9\u4e2a\u8fc7\u7a0b\u5927\u6982\u8981\u82b1\u4e2a\u4e00\u4e24\u5206\u949f\u5de6\u53f3\u3002\n> \n> \u540e\u7eed\u7684\u6240\u6709\u64cd\u4f5c\u90fd\u53ea\u9700\u8981\u9f20\u6807\u70b9\u51fb\u6e38\u620f\u4e2d\u7684\u6309\u94ae\u5373\u53ef\uff0c\u8f93\u5165\u7279\u5b9a\u7684\u56db\u4f4d\u6570\u5b57\u540e\u70b9\u51fb\u786e\u8ba4\u53ef\u4ee5\u4f7f\u673a\u5668\u4eba\u505a\u7279\u5b9a\u884c\u52a8\u3002\u5177\u4f53\u7684\u6570\u5b57\u4ee3\u7801\u7531\u4fbf\u7b7e\u7eb8\u8d34\u5728\u64cd\u4f5c\u53f0\u4e0a\u53ef\u4ee5\u968f\u65f6\u67e5\u9605\u3002\n> \n> \u53f3\u4e0a\u65b9\u7684\u663e\u793a\u5c4f\u94fe\u63a5\u7684\u662f\u4f60\u73b0\u5b9e\u4e2d\u7684\u6444\u50cf\u5934\uff0c\u5f53\u4f60\u5b8c\u6210\u6821\u51c6\u540e\uff0c\u5bf9\u5e94\u7684\u8868\u60c5\u60c5\u7eea\u8bc6\u522b\u4f1a\u663e\u793a\u5728\u4e0b\u65b9\u7684\u5c0f\u5c4f\u5e55\u5185\uff0c\u5728\u4f60\u9700\u8981\u53d1\u9001\u56fe\u7247\u7ed9\u5916\u661f\u751f\u547d\u65f6\uff0c\u70b9\u51fbsend\u6309\u94ae\u5373\u53ef\u5c06\u8be5\u56fe\u7247\u53d1\u9001\u51fa\u53bb\u3002\n> \n> **\u9700\u8981\u6ce8\u610f\u7684\u662f\uff0c\u4e3a\u4e86\u907f\u514dbug\uff08\u6ca1\u9519\u771f\u7684\u5f88\u5bb9\u6613bug\uff09\uff0c\u5728\u8587\u62c9\u8bf4\u8bdd\u65f6\u6e38\u620f\u4e2d\u7684\u8f93\u5165\u952e\u662f\u4e0d\u53ef\u4f7f\u7528\u7684\u3002**\n\n---\n\n### \ud83d\udcac A Few Words from the Developer:\n\n1. This is the second time for us (the designer and programmer) participating in Ludum Dare, and the rest of our teammates are newcomers. It is also our first time making this type of game, so we hope to receive plenty of feedback and suggestions.\n2. We actually made this game to test whether facial emotion recognition technology could be integrated into gameplay. I'm not sure if you guys have played this type of game before, but I'd highly recommend *Before Your Eyes*\u2014it's a very interesting experience.\n3. Originally, we wanted to create topological dialogue branches for Vera. For example, a scrapped \"rewind\" feature involved Vera remotely using a memory-erasing device on the alien so we could try again, which would have led to her making more sarcastic remarks during the second interaction. However, due to too many bugs, we had to cut them for now.\n4. We initially planned to have more aliens and a richer variety of actions, but our artists are still in school and the schedule was too tight to finish everything. We might update it later if we get the chance.\n5. Anyway, we hope everyone enjoys Ludum Dare! We really love the atmosphere of this community.

Many players mentioned that the text scrolls too fast. We have added a button that allows you to manually trigger the next line of dialogue, and you can also choose to use the `Spacebar` to trigger it. You can still scroll up in the dialogue interface to read all the conversation history.\n2. We received a lot of feedback that entering four-digit codes to control the robot is a bit tedious. To preserve the game's flavor, it's hard to remove this feature completely. However, we have added direct keyboard support! You can now use your number keys to input the codes directly and press the `Enter` key to confirm. We hope this makes the controls feel less clunky. If it still doesn't feel streamlined enough, please let us know! :D\n\n3. After a failure, *Vera* will now remind you that you can boot up the backup machine by entering **8080** to try again. This should help prevent players from feeling lost if they fail.\n\n> 1.
