New Update: 1.1.67
We know that Apple has just announced a whole bunch of ML-powered gadget features and updates, and we wouldn't dare to compete with them.
However, we have updates too! In this new version, namely:
- We've switched to a shiny new version of the engine (let us know if it works better with it)
- We've cleared some bugs that we've also introduced while switching to a shiny new engine (along with some older ones)
- We've optimized the game (yes, again, and we'll probably keep optimizing)
- We've cleared A LOT of typos in the text (let us know if you find more!)
- Finally, we've switched a bunch of in-game icons to their fancier versions
Enjoy and please let us know if you what you'd like to see in the upcoming updates! In the meantime, we'll keep working on that version for iOS, gotta keep up with those Apple people after all!

The Best Time to Learn is Now
These days, game development doesn't end when a game gets out of Early Access. At least, ours certainly didn't.
It's not the same game that we've released back in January. It's a much better one. Here's to remind about our most significant changes on the way to version 1.1
- We've reworked the interface
- We've improved a bunch of game mechanics, including the inglorious custom/DLL nodes
- We've added a handful of new quests and achievements (and they were not even in a DLC!)
- BTW, we've added a DLC with a super detailed infographics on machine learning. As if the game wasn't enough
- Naturally, we've killed a whole legion of bugs and optimized the game massively on the way
If you still have while True: learn() in your wish list, this weekend might be just the best time to add it to your library! Just wait until Saturday morning: there might be just one more reason to buy the game then :)
P.S. And we're not done just yet! The great dream of a perfect game about machine learning and cats lives on... And we'll make sure to continue making that game! Let us know how do you like the progress so far!

Major Update: 1.1
Drumroll, please, update 1.1 is here!
Cat just got real!
First of all, we wanted to thank each and everyone who has bought the game and spared some time to leave us feedback. Your positive reviews make us shine on the inside and let us know that we’re doing something right.
Your negative reviews are even more valuable, because they let us grow and learn from our mistakes.
Namely, many of you have been pointing out a significant flaw with our custom/DLL nodes. They worked like magic, and not in a good sense, making the game inexplicably easier. It was not obvious how they work, too.
Well, obviously, we didn’t think this through. This part of the game was an artifact from Early Access, it was implemented by request from our hardcore players who didn’t see that side effect as a problem and neither did we.
But if it was breaking the experience for our players, it had to be fixed. We’re sorry that it took us so long, the task was way more difficult to tackle than we’d initially presumed.
And now they’re finally here! New custom nodes, transparent and shiny! Now you can visually see how neural network magic works inside them. They don’t make your schemes work faster unexpectedly anymore! Check them out:
Think that’s it? Well, no! Here’s a brief list of changes introduced by this glorious update:
- Custom/DLL nodes 2.0 (so cool we wanted to mention them again)
- Multiple quests redesigned, 2 quests done from scratch
- Oodles of UI tweaks all around the game
- Turkish localization: 98% complete
- Bugs fixed
- Performance optimized
- Main screen redesigned a little bit
- New and cool theme for the main menu: use the promo code MEME to unlock it
Important notice: due to significant changes in the mechanics some of your older schemes might not be working anymore. A perfect chance to give them another go and nail them even better!
Let us know what you think! Does the game feel different now? What else would you like to see there? Let’s talk!
BONUS: Up for some meme drawing? Here's that fancy 2-cats-1-programmer image without wording: https://imgur.com/Ek1UBKS Meme us! Works good as a wallpaper, too

New Update: 1.0.65
Hey there! New update is probably already downloading as you read these lines... This time, it's a modest one:
- Block learning system has been slightly improved
- Few minor bugs were fixed to never return
Also, a teaser for our Turkish community: we expect to have the game fully localized in your language by the end of next week, stay tuned for the news :)

Update 1.0.64
Spring has finally come to our headquarters in Russia. Ah, the time for renewal! And in our case, time for updates!
(Ironic part with this one is that it is also mostly (but not exclusively) about renewal of existing stuff)
Version 1.0.64 brings you:
- 3 new quests (used to think the final part was too easy? not so easy now!)
- 3 new achievements - Redesign of multiple game screens
- Optimization of previously not-so-optimized code
- Major improvement for many UI elements
- Renewed achievements
- Many bugs fixed - A system of random theme selection for the main menu
Of course, our job isn't done: there's so much more to fix and improve! Let us know what you think about this update though!

What've We Been Up To
Hey everyone! Did you miss us? We certainly missed you!
In that crazy ride of attending 2 expos in 2 weeks (see photo proof at the bottom of this piece!) while still trying to move forward on making that mobile version, in that endless chaos we forgot not about updating desktop version!
We're making changes one step at a time though. Next version (which we expect to emerge in your updates list in a week or two) will have:
- A massive interface upgrade
- Several new quests
- Some other cool arty stuff! Here's a couple of sneak peeks:
In the meantime, there's this:
Today's our second day of PAX East! Check us out if you're there by any chance! We'll give you a sticker and whatnot!

Check out iOS version teaser!
Hey folks! You know what they say: an apple a day keeps the doctors away?
Well, it won't keep us from making a mobile version of the game!
You've asked for it and now we're going for it! First, iOS, then — the whole world!!!
Or maybe not the whole world, but we're definitely coming to mobile. Behold our little teaser proving that it actually exists: https://youtu.be/fjO0PNW5s9E
If you happen to be around this year's GDC or PAX, you can even check out this bad baby in action! It's still early in the works, but we're getting there.
Trust us, it won't be a simple blunt port, we'll introduce some new features too, along with new control scheme, specially tailored for your touchy displays.
Oh, and don't forget that we have public Trello board so you could check on our progress at any time: https://trello.com/b/MNIKsP2V/while-true-learn-roadmap

Good Luck, tomcsojn!
UPDATE: tomcsojn actually got hired for a student job! A path of thousand miles starts with but one step, so CONGRATULATIONS!
Hey everyone! We’ve got an exciting news to share.
One of our mot devoted community members is going for an interview to a machine learning startup today!
Now, our friend tomcsojn was already an IT enthusiast since middle school. Since then, he has finished a course as a software developer and now his mastering Computer Science in Denmark.
It was while True: learn(), however, that helped to spark his interest in machine learning: «the game cached me because it both challenging and fun, also very nice community… the facts about real examples from the history was interesting in the game and always made me interested that how that could work in real life… also I can see that ML is kinda the future, so thats why I asked for help in the discord how to start ML»
And now he’s about to be interviewed for a machine learning specialist position!
Isn’t that just awesome? We wish him all the best! Don’t hesitate to wish him luck as well in the comments, we’ll make sure your love and support reaches him!
