It's never too late to learn

Everyone is speaking about machine learning. Forbes writes that these developers and Data Scientists have incredible salaries, Elon Musk says that they can accidentally create an AI that can enslave humanity. So, what are these people really doing when they come to work? This game is a simulator of a machine learning specialist who uses visual programming to make his living. Learn what those guys are actually doing and realize if it is possible to create a big and scary evil AI by mistake (or not)?

What Are The Devs Up To Now?

Game Description Image

Hey there!

It's us, your friendly neighborhood experimental indie game devs. It's a fact that while True: learn() is a game that is done by now, We're still happy to see new feedback from you, the players, years after the game was released! It's an honor and joy, and we are endlessly grateful to all of you!

We have some thoughts about future updates for the game (no dates or promises yet, though), but for now, we are exploring some new ideas, which we'd like to share with you!

Latest News

As you may already know, we have released the v1.0 game of our next cat-themed game, Learning Factory, which PC Gamer once called 'an adorable factory game about machine learning and cats'. Adorable AND gigantic, we might add. A simple idea of a cat-themed tycoon led to almost 5 years in development and over 100 hours of content.

There's a demo if you haven't tried it yet:

As for our other game, Craftomation 101, a spiritual successor of while True: learn(), in which you get to actually use visual programming on goofy robots, things are going fine for it. We have prepared a plan of things that we're planning to add before the 1.0 release (here's a deep dive into it ).

In the meantime, we were honored to be included in the 34th annual selection of pedagogically assessed games by the Federal Ministry for Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth of Germany , which, to be honest, sounds very cool to us! Give it a read if you happen to be a German speaker:

And yes, there's a demo for Craftomation 101, if you want to give it a spin:

New Heights and Horizons

Ivan the programmer now has some spare time (when he's not making updates for Learning Factory) to experiment with a new prototype. It's very, very early for any details, but it's safe to say that this project involves cats... and hexagonal tiles? Sure, why not:

Our lips are sealed for now, but stay tuned for more updates. To make sure you don't miss anything, do subscribe to our newsletter !

Remember how we called ourselves 'experimental game dev studio'? We sure love experimenting, and we have recently assembled another brave internal team to try something completely different. Some teammates have joined us - a game designer, an artist, and even an animator. And they're experimenting like it's going out of style!

Once again, we're deep in the pre-production stage right now; more gameplay types and art styles will be tested before - and if - we decide to move on.

But we will pick a direction eventually, so which one do you like more, 1, 2, or 3? Drop your thoughts in the comments or talk to us directly on our Discord server !

It makes even more sense because Discord server members will be the first to try out our next stage prototypes. Don't be a stranger!

We'll be in touch! But before we part ways for today, take a moment to gaze upon our studio's cats. As you can see, they are very well fed and taken good care of:
