Tiny Little Keys :

15th August - USA - Developer Tiny Little Keys is proud to announce that their first title, Machine Yearning, is coming out on the 12th of September for iOS and Android. In Machine Yearning, you’re applying to a job for robots. As a human. To stand any chance of getting the job, you’ll have to bypass a captcha system which is designed to catch out conniving human applicants.

Machine Yearning works through linking words to shapes (defining), and then remembering the link later (verifying), thereby creating your own language. Initially simple tasks grow more perplexing as the number of words grow and even more so when colors are added. Eventually, the job application becomes a task fit for only the most state of the art robots out there… and you?
 

 
Authentic Application - Take a glimpse into the fascinating robot job market and see how you would compete on the career ladder leaderboard.
 
Update Your Brain - Regularly playing Machine Yearning has been proven to update human brains to at least a 2005-era memory and processing speed.
 
An Eye-catching Resume - Machine Yearning was originally conceived at Ludum Dare - the world’s most well known game jam. With the help of its human developer, it won #1 most fun, and #1 most innovative!
 
You’ll be able to get your hands on Machine Yearning from the 12th September on the Play Store or Apple Store.
