Machine Yearning: A Brain-Teasing Robot Job Simulator Launching September 12th
This isn't your average human job. Tiny Little Keys' debut game, Machine Yearning, challenges players to perform tasks usually reserved for robots. Founded by a former Google Machine Learning Engineer, this intriguing title puts your cognitive skills to the test. Launching September 12th, Machine Yearning promises a unique gameplay experience.
What is Machine Yearning?
Machine Yearning throws you into the role of a human applicant vying for a robot job. You'll face a CAPTCHA-style challenge designed to weed out those who think they can outsmart the system. The game aims to push your memory and processing speed to their limits, requiring 2005-level performance (at least!).
Gameplay
The game begins with simple word-shape associations. As you progress, the difficulty increases, adding more words, colors, and complexity, demanding you retain previous pairings. Master the challenge, and you'll unlock the ability to customize your robots with an array of hats – from archer hats to cowboy hats and even straw hats!
