"While True: learn()" is an educational puzzle video game[1] developed and published by Luden.io. The game was released on December 21, 2018, for Microsoft Windows, macOS, and Linux platforms. It later became available on iOS, Android, and Nintendo Switch.[2]
Gameplay
[edit]"While True: learn()" is a puzzle game that simulates the work of a machine learning specialist.[3] Players use visual programming to solve various tasks related to data science, artificial intelligence, and machine learning. The game does not require prior programming knowledge, as it utilizes a node-based visual programming interface. The main character is a programmer who tries to understand the language of his cat and creates a cat-to-human translation system. This premise serves as an entry point into various machine learning concepts and challenges.[4]
- Visual Programming Puzzles: Players interact with a drag-and-drop system to create and manage machine learning models. This approach allows users to understand the flow of data and the application of different algorithms without writing traditional code.
- Machine Learning and Data Science Concepts: The game introduces fundamental concepts such as supervised and unsupervised learning, neural networks, and data preprocessing through interactive puzzles and challenges.
- Business Simulation Elements: In addition to technical tasks, players manage projects, handle clients, and optimize their workflow to build a successful machine learning consultancy.
While True: learn() is designed to introduce players to machine learning concepts in an accessible and interactive way. The game seamlessly integrates educational content within its gameplay mechanics, ensuring that learning is an inherent part of the gaming experience rather than a separate instructional component.
Key Educational Features
[edit]- Integrated Tutorials: Step-by-step guides and tutorials help players understand the basics of machine learning and data science as they progress through the game.
- Curated Learning Materials: The game includes a repository of articles and videos that provide deeper insights into topics like Python programming, Keras frameworks, and foundational machine learning techniques.
- Practical Application: By solving in-game puzzles that mirror real-world machine learning tasks, players gain hands-on experience with concepts such as data preprocessing, model training, and evaluation.
Development
[edit]The game was developed by Luden.io, a studio known for creating educational games about technology and science. It was built using the Unity game engine.[2] Post-release, the developers have continued to update the game with new content and educational materials.[1]
