Learning Factory News

Hey everyone!

As you may know, 'Dinos vs. Robots' event kicks off today at Steam. Although Learning Factory is not officially a part of it (because it doesn't feature actual dinos or robots, only boring AI stuff), but our latest game - Craftomation 101 - is participating by definition!

The 10% launch discount for Craftomation 101 is prolonged for the time of the festival! Don't forget to check out the free demo, if you haven't already.

But that's not it! We decided to expand the party, so all our games have discount up to 75% this week on Steam!

Hey factory builders!

So, this week's Leearning Factory update got postponed for a week, due to seasoned epidemiologic situation (some of us got sick with the flu, but we're all betteer now!)

Which might be good, because at least one, maybe even a couple, new juicy buildings now have beter chances to appear in the game! Check out this WIP lava-pumping machine:



What do you think it does? Let us know in the comments or come to our Discord server!

Speaking of which: we have changed the procedure of working with community localizations. Instead of using external services, we now rely on good old-fashined Google Spreadsheets.

If you want to help us translate the game into your native language, please go to our Discord server, we will provide you with the link and appropriate editing rights.

Just a reminder: if you aren't happy with community translations, you can always try ChatGPT translation as an alternative.

In other news: though Steam Deck is not yet officially supported by Learning Factory, it can be launched still, and we improved the controls for better access to in-game hotkeys. Let us know if it helps, portable geeks!

Another friendly reminder: don't forget about our collection of items in Steam Points Shop! Sergei the artist makes wonderful factory art to be observed from above, but his works' magic really shows at close-up perspective:



Last but not least: please don't forget that we have a new game going to Early Access in less than a week! Add Craftomation 101 to your wishlist, to make sure you don't miss the release discount!
