Dialogue Game: I need your help imgur!

TL;DR: Try my game prototype where you chat freely with NPCs and then take this survey to totally help me with my thesis

Links over the comment section!

This is a game prototype I'm working on

It features a new* kind of dialogue system where you can type your lines freely and the NPCs respond according to what you say - like chatbots.

Now, I'm not a game developer. But I dabble in natural language processing and thought I'd give this a try for my thesis. The overall result will probably be that the approach I took is not feasible for real games as it needs way too much work. Still, I'm glad I attempted this and might actually build on it in the future.

* Not THAT new, though, it has been done, for example in the interactive drama "Façade" (can be downloaded for free and is worth a look: http://www.interactivestory.net/).

This is where you come in

I don't know anything about game development so it's probably messy and buggy but I'd like to ask you to try it and then maybe answer a little survey (of 8 questions) about your experience. It is anonymous, save for some demographic information and should be done in a few minutes.

This is not meant as a beta test (although the thing could surely do with one) but merely as an assessment of the chatbots' possibilities.

I hope the files run on anyone's computer. They should, as the game is made with Unity and the chat engine is said to run on most systems but I can't be sure as I only tested it on a few windows machines. As the chat engine opens a local server it might get blocked by your virus protection.
