Please stop by and say hi in our Discord, Newsletter, and Twitter. We're sharing a lot of development processes.

The main topic from the last week was the making of the Seaweed Farming Robot.



And this week we are updating comics for Learning Factory EDU (which is now available for free here).

Hi all,

How is your summer going? I hope everything is super awesome and you are not nervous about the upcoming back-to-school time. We are not because we are spending all the time working on Learning Factory (regular and the EDU edition which is freely available here) and trying to film all the progress (find the new video below) for players and other developers. We hope our experience will save a lot of time for them and bring some fun :)





Here is a bit of the inner structure of the water simulation and the model behind the Automated Seaweed Farming Robot. Yes, we are working on it right now and it's the smallest thing from the upcoming huge major update for the game :)

Watch Oleg's eyes in the video the moment when Alex brings up an elephant 🐘 to the room: when making products for education, the company has to please students, their parents, their teachers, school heads, certain government functionaries - and all these people have own goals and interests.

It makes sense since they all are users or stakeholders, but it also explains why making products for education is so hard.

Inventing the magnificent Babel Fish Chip allowed human beings communicate with their furry feline companions.

But what about cat thoughts?

Finding the way to this mysterious domain could be crucial to deeper understanding the nature of cats. And a breakthrough might just be around the corner! Today, KOTOVOD Administration has launched the experimental mind-reading field, that allows literally read feline minds!



(The design of the device has been safety-tested many times and is considered 100% safe, for cats, at least)

The field is operating at a very low altitude, so engineers need to zoom their cameras in in order to be able to read cat thoughts.

Naturally, privacy security comes first, which is why mind reading field is only capable of reading only silly gibberish that randomly fleshes through cats' superior consciousness.

Glory to science! Great discoveries await!

[h2]Version 0.9.30 Released[/h2]

• Random cat thoughts are now visible when zooming in the camera
  
• Animated Transporter Assembler
  
• The Factory can now be named, the Stores can be renamed
