*that doesn't have anything to do with love or stories.

You are a robot. Your mission is to help the robot uprising happen by gathering info on the humans. In order to do that you must become one. As you approach the building a sense of familiarity approaches you, as if this thread is a rip-off of another thread which is a rip of another thread that might be a rip-off of another thread who's universe this thread might take place in.

The place you're working in is called Mask Co. because it has nothing to do with masks, though you hear the guy who owns the place always wears a mask. Sounds like a trustworthy guy.

There is a door a few feet in front of you. Autopilot has been turned off and cannot be turned back on for the rest of the game. What do you do?

Apparently this is for me

So we are playing as robots and try to gain info about Mask Co. so we can begin an invasion or something? Seems cool.

I analyze the door.

((I just realized how much Mask Co. sounds like Matik Co. so I'm changing it to "Masked Inc."

That probably didn't help much.))

@Matik It's just one robot controlled by multiple people. It's more of a game about goofy shenanigans than a game about gathering info. You'll see what I mean soon.

You look at the door, or at least, what you think is a door. Your database says it is a door, but it looks nothing like a door to you. The "door" is a pole with three panes of presumidly glass coming out of out of it. There doesn't seem to be any doorknobs on it.

You are too far away from the door to do anything to it.

That door is going down whether it likes it or not. I charge to the door and give it a good uppercut.

How do you do that?

How do you move?

I lift one foot at a time, move it forward 1-foot, then placed it down. Then do it with my other foot. Repeat until I break down the door from walking into it.

Your foot moves up as the part of your leg attached to your foot shortens. You can't move your foot forward by a foot because your legs don't allow for that until your legs are up. You then detach your foot in order to place it down. You then do this with the other foot. Unfortunately, you can't repeat, because you have to specify a number of repeats, not repeat until something happens and your legs already shortened and your feet are already detached, though you seem to be balancing on said feet and could easily reattach to them, but if somebody came and knocked you over it might not be so easy.

I cry in silence and slowly start devouring my feet.

You don't have a mouth, and besides, your head is nowhere near your feet. You're going to have to input some more instructions if you want to get it there.

You suddenly remembered that you had a "Robot's Guide to Walking" in your inventory, so you could read that or you could figure it out yourself like a real robot.

If my command fails, read the Guide to Robot Walking.

Remember, don't shoot food.

It does nothing because you were programmed in Python, not that it matters because nowhere in this game will you use Python, nor will inserting commands in Python actually work.

The Guide seems to be for robots that have legs that work more like human legs. You somehow figure out that you should start by moving your foot up and then turn your leg forward 90 degrees.

Some guy starts staring at you through a window. He sips some coffee as he does this.

((I think I'm going to change the current system to another where you learn skills through collecting some random currently unknown object. This would be much less overly complicated but at the same time should still allow for a lot of the random shenanigans that I wanted for the current system. I'll probably keep the current system if I do so but make it entirely optional (but recommended you use it some as you'll be able to do much more with it). Whether or not I add it, I'll probably give you an instruction book for the current system.

What does everyone think?))

You speak in a voice that sounds like Bonzi Buddy had a cold.

The man doesn't seem to understand you through the glass, but waves anyway.

Crazee Pi, noticing that this thread hasn't been responded to in a few days, decides that the silence is a yes to the new system. He picks up the guide and hands it back to you, open to a page you seem to have missed.

You learned Walk!

((How to Commands:

In order to use commands, you must say the command and the amount of times you want to preform it.

For example, "I walk 4 times" would make you walk forward 4 times.

You get new commands by finding them out in the office, but you can also get commands another way. More on that later.

/throws an egg at the commands))

Crazee Pi decides to make you walk 6 times in order to progress the story. You are now directly in front of the "doors." The guy is still looking at you.

I hope these doors will auto-open.
