I'm Tyler, the main programmer for the human testing side of the project. In other words, I made the applet you will be playing!
The game that you play is intentionally vague in order to avoid the issue of prior knowledge in the tester. As a result, the game can be a bit frustrating. This is all part of the experience, as you struggle (or find it very easy, as some people do) to figure out what you're supposed to do and how you're supposed to do it.
We will be publishing our results both formally and in a more user-friendly format, so stay tuned to see what we all can learn about the human brain!
