Bot Colony Full Crack [Ativador]

Updated: Mar 11, 2020





















































About This Game It’s August 2021 and you're recruited by Nakagawa Corp., Japan's leading robot manufacturer. Agrihan, Nakagawa’s private island in the South Pacific was infiltrated. The robots are acting strangely. Agrihan ( Bot Colony) is a Mars testbed staffed mostly by robots - so you'll need to talk to THEM to investigate what happened.Bot Colony ( www.botcolony.com) is unique in that it's currently the ONLY game on the planet relying on AI-based conversation as the main game mechanic. You speak in English with robots (or type) in order to advance in the game. Bot Colony will appeal to players interested in genre-defining games with novel mechanics. If you enjoy figuring out how to get through to robots, command them through actions and investigate - you'll enjoy Bot Colony. The game is played in an eerie South Pacitic setting where modern architecture and robots contrast with the jungle environment. It integrates adventure, simulation, RPG and puzzles into a unique language-based gameplay with a great atmospheric soundtrack. You'll get to experience Artificial Intelligence that is currently in the realm of cinematic fantasy in Her, Ex Machina, iRobot, Blade Runner, 2001 A Space Odyssey. It's a challenging and entertaining experience that will make you realize how literally machines process language, and how much we take for granted when we speak with people.KEY FEATURESType of speak freely and discover the story using your own words. The answers spoken by the robots is generated dynamically. Contrast with typical game storytelling, where canned voice acting is controlled by dialog trees. Experience the eerie atmosphere of a South Pacific island featuring ultra modern architecture and robots amid a lush jungle setting. The techno-romantic mood is enhanced by the original music soundtrack of the game. Play detective and piece together the events that took place in a house in a 48 hour period by exploring the robot's video observations. Work with the robots to scuttle violent sabotage attempts by robot-hating organizations.Game sessions are unique to each player: What you say controls how robots react and what they answer. Sessions of other players will have different dialog than your session. Every session is unique.Make the game your own: Teach robots new knowledge and new commands. Speak or type. The Microsoft Cognitive speech-to-text does an amazing job understanding what you say, irrespective of your accent. When speech-to-text makes mistakes, you can easily correct them. You can combine playing through speech or text according to your preference. Inspired by Bot Colony sci-fi novel, a near future industrial espionage thriller by Eugene Joseph. The novel ( available on Amazon Kindle) explores the verbal abilities of future robots and introduces the 5th law of robotics 'do as people do'. 7aa9394dea Title: Bot ColonyGenre: Adventure, Casual, Indie, RPG, Simulation, Strategy, Early AccessDeveloper:North SidePublisher:North SideRelease Date: 16 Jun, 2014 Bot Colony Full Crack [Ativador] bot colony gameplay. pulsar lost colony bot setup. bot colony review. bot colony game. bot colony steam. bot colony giant bomb. pulsar lost colony bot guide. pulsar lost colony bot inventory. bot colony download. bot colony walkthrough. bot colony free download Bought it for the laughs. Still disappointed. Great gameplay, high potential, pretty good graphics, nice concept with voice implementation, good controls, overall 9/10, i liked it!. Could play some time and the game is not bad i must say. It is absolutely not easy but the technique behind it is very interesting and it makes fun to play around.The interacting with objects is a bit hard and not that intuitive. Could be better.I like the graphic artstyle and how the robots look, the interior is fine too.Sad that they soon shut down the servers.I hope they can revive the servers at some point so i can play further, still hope i can understand how all that stuff works.And its too bad we couldnt speak to the robots, only write.. In this game you have to communicate with robotsyou have to talk as in chat talkingthis system recognise a lot of grammerIt's up to you to ask the right questions, or to make some funny conversations!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0_8Cp41S7g. Had this game for a while and came back to see if it had been improved any... NOPE!!! There are still game breaking bugs and the AI is as crippled as ever. The robot in the intro will insist objects are already closed when they are open, etc. If I could order the robot to step in the shower and turn it on, I would have. Save your money.. NEEDS MORE WORK!!! but has great potential The TTS sucks** Sorry its the "Speech To Text" is the part that sux.. And even when things are right it doesn't work....(matching the pictures, first part of the game). Bot Colony is certainly a unique experience. You can use your voice to control the game. You don't have to use your voice, but I would suggest taking the time to train the voice software. It makes the game basically hand free and I feel you get the desired effect. It brings me back to the Dreamcast days when I used to play Seaman and talk to my fish for hours. Fortunately, time has had a positive effect on voice software and Jimmy ( the robot in-game that you talk to) can understand me far better than my virtual Dreamcast fish could ever dream to. It's pretty casual but it is a good time. If you have ever seen Irobot, you know that sometimes it is the way you word your question to a robot that decides how it will respond. There is an element to the game where you have to question Jimmy to find out what happened before you got there. I really enjoyed that. Like I was Will Smith in Irobot. Either way, it was fun and in my opinion worth my time.. The game has unique concept and mechanics, though some robots seem to be stubborn or plain stupid, it varies from fun to frustrating to try to communitcate with them properly. Team put a great effort and a lot of time in this game, so it's definitely worth a try, especially for its price. Keep in mind that game requires some intermediate English knowledge.. So, i played this a little, I can't say that I am happy with the game in the current state, but a good part of it is interesting.I want it finished.So, this is a recommendation to the developer to finish the game more then a recommendation for you to buy it.. When I see a project with lots of potentials, I recognize it.This game is the first of its kind.There are already games that support voice commands (E.G. Binary Domain) but, this isn't about just simple commands, we are talking about interactions with in-game characters. I am the first to admit that I stayed a long time in the first part of the game talking to a small robot just to know what it can do and it was absolutely amazing.I followed this project since when it was on Greenlight and Indie DB and I know how many efforts and sacrifices have been put on it.I recommend this game, not only because it's amazing, but because you can help the developers make it even better and this is what this game deserve. BUY button is back!: To all the fans that bought keys directly from myself, or bought the Bot Colony eBook on Amazon to get Steam keys, a big Thank You!We have assured Valve of our commitment to keep Bot Colony going (we did keep the servers going after all :), and the BUY button is back as of today. Your beloved Jimmy - and his cousin Kate - are now busy moonlighting - take a look at www.northsideinc.com - it's kind of neat that the technology powering Bot Colony found its way into other applications, I'm hoping we'll do better with that than we did with Bot Colony. Personally, I still hope to see this game finished, all 12 episodes of it!We've made a big upgrade in January, the Robot Visual Memories. We plan to make additional upgrades to conversation with robots in the future, but I cannot commit to specific dates. Early Access terms apply - there are no promises of evolution. We'd be very happy to work with developers interested to take on continued development of Bot Colony on a revenue sharing basis - this makes more sense now as the game seems to have more traction after it 'died' than it had before. If you know any sharp developers, pass the word around. We have the assets ready for the next 3 - 4 episodes, as you can see from the 30 min video that tells the Bot Colony story using game assets (look for The Story Untold video on the Store page). If our new venture works out, I hope we'll find the money to finance continued development of Bot Colony - that's our heritage and that's how we got into Natural Language Understanding - and it would feel great to finish what we started.Thank you again!. New Microsoft voice recognition - a real game changer for Bot Colony: The Bot Colony update scheduled for June 19 will integrate Microsoft’s Cognitive Services Speech API, a new cloud-based speech recognition technology. Tests at North Side are showing this tech to have super high precision out of the gate, without training. We're keen to evaluate the impact of the new Microsoft technology on the game experience (it could be a real game changer :). During an evaluation period, the new voice recognition tech will be included at no additional cost, replacing the built-in free Microsoft speech-to-text or Dragon. However, we'll need to look closely at incremental sales versus expenses as we progress. This lack of precision of the current voice recognition, its inability to deal with particular accents, impact of noisy environments, ambiguity of what words to assign to particular audio inputs - all posed a formidable problem for Bot Colony: many players bought the game expecting to talk to robots naturally and be understood. Though we're focused on NLU technology development and we're only an integrator of speech recognition, the quality of the overall experience heavily depends on how well speech recognition performs - as many players choose to speak rather than type. Concern about speech recognition negatively impacting the game got so high that in our February 21, 2017 update to Bot Colony players were encouraged to type instead of speaking. The new Microsoft tech will help Bot Colony offer the kind of immersive game experience we always wanted to offer to our players.. Battle Girls Game Release: Dharker Studio and Brightly Studios latest game is now live on Steam.http://store.steampowered.com/app/404170Checkout the game now and be the latest guy to pilot Mechs alongside a group of female co-pilots, and maybe have a romance along the way.. Patch: Last 2 achievements: To build on the last announcement - now all the 18 achievements are functional, which means you can now get Investigation Training and Clue Removal Training.IN THE SHORT TERMThe feedback we received says the training is too long. We'll bring you shorter, more experimentation-based training. You'll learn by doing rather than have Miki give you a guided tour - it's more exciting to get a goal and figure it out yourself. The current training will be still be available, but we'll make it on demand. You'll get the two achievements above if and when you do it. We're thinking to let you chose the mission you'd like to start with in Intruder, or let you play both simultaneously (the software supports that). This way, you could then choose to do the training for the particular mission (Investigation or Clue Removal).In Discussions, there's a new thread about Arrival, we're watching it carefully and will react. We'll bring you more content in Arrival, and more achievements.It's encouraging for us, the devs, to see some community engagement and people who care about our game. Finally, if you purchased the game on Steam, please review and Recommend if you like it, we're still shy of 50 reviews we need to get more visibility in the store. Thank you!. Bot Colony Heads Up: To react to recent posts, Bot Colony is still being developed. I'll summarize the game history for those who are new to this Community, and say a few words about our future plans.WHERE ARE WE NOW AND HOW DID WE GET HERE?When we released it in June 2014, we were 45. Now we're 7. If you go through old announcements, you'll see that the game came close to being shut down in January 2015. Recent posts complaining about jerkiness, frame rate, sluggish graphics - are unfortunately well founded. We won't be able to do much IN THE SHORT TERM. In a nutshell, we weren't lucky with our first 2 game engine choices. First we developed our own, called Anitron, until its architect (Glen Ozymok, recipient of an Academy Award) passed away in 2011 at a very young age. It took more than a year to switch to the Havok Vision engine. Then, Microsoft acquired Havok and discontinued Vision. Autodesk, who made HumanIK used for Inverse Kinematics (to get robots to grab stuff), shut it down. Ditto for Scaleform, used for User Interface. Bot Colony could have great potential if we had the resources to switch engines (again :) and go to Unreal 4 or Unity. However, the game never sold enough to support itself. In this situation, we need a partnership with another studio that believes in the potential of the game and wants to partner with us and help us change engines and improve gameplay. Or we need to make serious money in some other way.WHAT'S NEXT?We kept developing aggressively since 2014, but we focused mostly on our NLU technology, which is the unique thing about Bot Colony. It's also the technology we can control (as opposed to engine).We DO have the major parts of Riot working, but the Hunter Bot circles the Oil Rig at a frame rate that's simply too low. We decided that it was critical for us to keep making MAJOR advances in Natural Language Understanding (NLU). We're now working on a new game called Jimmy's World (see http://northsideinc.com/index.php/videogames/ ). Jimmy's World will be a free game using our next-generation technology platform. We'll launch it first on Steam and then on mobile and tablets. This is where our efforts are focused now. The technology from JW will be used in Bot Colony - but we'd really like to switch engines to benefit from all our work. If we can't offer a smooth game experience - similar to other 3D games, the game will never make it, never mind how great the conversation is and how smart the robots are. Microsoft have kindly given us the sources to Vision - but we'd rather work with a supported engine. We'll deliver on our promise to launch Riot, even if it has to be on Vision - but we won't do it before Jimmy's World is launched.FYI, we do have the story, assets, animations, etc for TWO episodes after Riot - one in the Old VIllage and one in the Hotel (if you read the novel), but it's premature to say more about that. Currently, Bot Colomy definitely qualifies as a labor of love.WHY BUY AND PLAY BOT COLONY?In spite of being rough around the edges, Bot Colony is a very unique game offering a very unique experience that simply cannot be had with another game: conversation as the main game mechanic. You can command robots through some fairly detailed actions, and you can investigate using your own words. You basically get 3 - 5 hours of gameplay in which you can have hundreds (we've seen > 400) of intelligent, relevant exchanges with robots, making progress in the game. And you can do this through SPEECH, that now works beautifully (you can also type). Is this worth fifteen bucks? Probably.. Major Update: Checkpoints everywhere, Big Brother unleashed, robot personalities, improved speech-to-text: This new update will be available December 2 at 2 PM EST, Ortwin [developer] will post under Discussions if available before Checkpoints everywhere. Checkpoints in Intruder - April 28 Upgrade: Since the game was relaunched on February 21, we worked hard to offer you a smoother game experience. The main feature in this version are checkpoints in Intruder. You no longer have to finish the investigation (2 hours) AND the object placement (1 -2 hours) in one session. Just EXIT and then CONTINUE at a later time/date to continue playing from the last checkpoint. We create a checkpoint after every 4 Jimmy videos. BTW: Jimmy’s videos you uncoverd are listed like this (Thursday HH:MM, HH:MM, Friday HH:MM). Green HH:MM means you’ve seen all the videos in that morning, afternoon or evening, yellow HH:MM means there’s still videos to discover around that part of day. after every 3 objects replaced. A known problem we didn’t have time to address: if you’re in training and you restart from a checkpoint, training will restart from the beginning (Sorry!). For now, just Page Down to where you left off, or skip it if you finished it.OTHER IMPROVEMENTS Improved, shorter speech training ( got a earful about that :)) Fixed hang on return to main menu from gameplay Fixed screen resolution configuration problem Fixed ‘Cannot start Vision Application’ at startup We now have automated server monitoring to improve uptime A quick reference guide available from Store page linksWe’ll have another maintenance version soon to add checkpoint to Arrival, and make referring to objects easier.Following community feedback, the next major updates will be: Achievements improved Speech-to-text quality better understanding in Arrival (it’s not yet at par with Intruder) the Riot episode If you enjoy the game and would like to help, please write a short review on the Bot Colony Store page and Recommend the game. This is really important to us! Your positive review will help spread the word about the game. Thank you!. Patreon Campaign: We are happy to announce that Dharker Studios is now on Patreon, delivering patrons daily artwork, weekly polls and monthly competitions for awesome physical rewards.https://www.patreon.com/DharkerStudioPlus patrons also receive copies of the various games we produce and release, and with many games in development there are lots of great rewards to enjoy.Checkout the campaign for more details and potentially have your say in how we develop future games and the content that is included within them.. Update: Save improvements, Saved Games to be kept for 3 months: To improve realism and immersion, your conversations with various robots in Bot Colony are now saved as part of the observation database of robots and are accessible through question answering. You can ask what you told a robot, or what a robot overheard previous visitors say. This is in a quest to package Bot Colony text-to-animation technology for VR (this article on Bot Colony on our website goes on more detailshttp://northsideinc.com/index.php/videogames/ ). Bot Colony has to save more than other games: not only the objects that you commanded a robot to move, but also a robot’s observations of people and their actions and what it heard them say (so, a real Big Brother : ). This was how we built the Investigation mission in Intruder, where you’re rewarded with videos of a robot's observations (generated in-engine, by the way). As you may know, Conversation history with a robot is saved and accessible through F10. Conversations are not saved as text, but in our internal logic form in an Object-Oriented database, so you can ask questions on what was said.With the support for checkpoints in Intruder and Arrival, you can CONTINUE from the last checkpoint and save several hours (some players have had more that 500 dialogue exchanges with robots in multi-hour sessions, which says something about engagement). All of this functionality has an impact on the size of a saved game. You only have ONE saved game that you can continue playing from the last checkpoint. We will save your game for 3 months – and saved games older than 3 months will be deleted. This seems reasonable – if you haven’t gone back to your game for 3 months, you probably forgot about it. We can’t let these huge saves accumulate indefinitely – we learned from experience that never mind how many servers and disk we’re throwing at it, it’s never enough. When the database runs out of space, all the players suffer because checkpoints don’t work anymore. If anyone has a problem with saved games being deleted after 3 months, please speak up. Enjoy Bot Colony and please Recommend it if you do!
