'Learning Factory' Gets Steam Early Access Date

by Rainier on Jan. 26, 2021 @ 8:59 a.m. PST

Learning Factory is a factory automation game where you have to build an increasingly bigger and complex factory, named KOTOVOD and located on Mars, to make goods for cats.

A factory automation game that applies machine learning to find the answer to a question: what do cats really want? Mine, craft, build a factory, design efficient automated production lines, sell goods to cats and learn how to analyze data with real-world machine learning.

What do cats really want?! Sometimes, they can get so annoying that if you would just rebuild an industrial cluster to process huge amounts of data through machine learning algorithms to get an answer.

Then you get data about sales analyzing what cats liked or disliked, and use this data with machine learning models to optimize prices and make sure you’re selling what cats really long for.

But just as with while True:learn(), there’s more to this game: backed by actual specialists in the matter and using real-world machine learning models, the game aims also at teaching how big data is collected and processed in machine learning. You will be learning about two of the most relevant technologies of our time while you play a super fun strategy game -- if you want to, that is; because at its true heart it’s above all a quirkily engaging factory automation game with lots of cats in it! 

Learning Factory is coming to Steam Early Access on February 18, 2021 for €11.99/$14.99 (with a release discount of a 10% off)!

Learning Factory free Alpha/demo is currently available on Steam, but will be shut down on February 4th; you can also find a link in the official Discord server of the studio.

Key Features:

  • Rebuild a factory from scratch to make goods for cats
  • Automate and optimize it to be as efficient as possible
  • Research new stuff to make and build machines to do the job
  • Build cat-entertaining facilities inside your new research lab and collect useful data on their behavior
  • Get sales data and analyze it with Machine Learning to create better quality and custom stuff 
  • Optimize your factory to unveil the mystery of what cats really want and how it can change the Universe

Learning Factory will be released on Early Access on Q1 2021, but you can play the free alpha/demo right now on Steam!
