Blending disciplines from behavior-based robotics and early childhood development the project aimed to produce, high functioning machines capable of judgement in uncertainty, or System One thinking. THE ORPHANAGES As the project matured, the ‘students’ as they were called spent more and more time interacting with children comparable to their mental capacity. At both the University of Edinburgh and Yonsei University, the children were often visitors from nearby children's homes. While the ‘students’ at Texas A&M interacted almost |

| Grey Goo Archives - Catalyst | 2016-04-21 | In Grey Goo, Catalyst is the essential building block to rapidly build and expand your armies across the battlefield. When you begin a match, you will find at least one or two Catalyst vents nearby your starting location. Build a refinery and then an extractor to harvest this valuable material! Catalyst is naturally occurring solution comprised of various ultrahard fullerenes dissolved in hydrocarbons. It is a highly contested resource in nanoengineering and material fabrication for all factions in Grey Goo. While undesirably volatile, especially when a full transport is under attack, it offers significant build-time advantages during product |

| Grey Goo Archives - The von Neumann Pathfinder Mission | 2016-04-15 | Within the Grey Goo universe lies keyholes that bridge vast distances in space and time. Keyholes are essential for establishing interstellar communication infrastructure and gathering data towards locating super-wormholes. With no ability to interact or observe the other side of these keyholes, nanoengineers at the University of Manchester created a swarm intelligent system called the Pathfinder (Goo), its prime directive: Explore, Gather, Report. The Pathfinder was instrumental in tracing routes to The Eight, which are eight discovered habitable exoplanets in the Galaxy. The first discovered wormholes were no bigger than a pea, earning the |

| Grey Goo Archives - Keyhole Varieties and Distribution | 2016-04-06 | Ever since the great scientist, Souza, humans have explored space in ways not thought possible before. During their travels, they discovered stable wormholes theorized by Souza. At first, just a few were discovered between the orbits of Mars and Earth. Eventually, many more were found across the fabric of the galaxy. A vast wealth of knowledge about the universe opened up to humanity after discovering the wormholes could be used for instant communication across vast distances, and even in some cases, transporting spaceships. Read on to discover more about these conduits through space! KEYHOLE VARIETIES AND DISTRIBUTION More than eighty years |

| Grey Goo Archives - Keyhole Theory | 2016-03-30 | What's the most efficient way to communicate across the galaxy? Wormholes! Otherwise known as keyholes in Grey Goo, these tiny wormholes burrow through subspace and connect countless points in the galaxy. Their existence as a natural phenomenon was first theorized by the Brazilian astrophysicist, Gabriel Paulo Souza in 1993. When asked whether these theoretical wormholes, if discovered, could be used as doorways to other worlds, Souza’s reply was, “I would be overjoyed if they were but keyholes to peek through.” A vast wealth of knowledge about the universe opened up to the Grey Goo races when keyholes were first discovered, particularly for |

| Game Patch for March 29, 2016 - AI Tweaks | 2016-03-29 | It's patch day! Upon running the game on Steam, the patch will automatically download. This is a short but powerful patch with some significant AI tweaks made. MAR 29, 2016 PATCH NOTES: AI will now favor defending of its own structures more than before. AI will build air units more often (further tweaks to come here). Stay tuned for more updates! Keep the feedback coming on new issues that you find. We appreciate it, as we couldn't update the game nearly fast enough without your feedback! |

| New to Grey Goo? Join these community activities! | 2016-03-09 | Greetings new and veteran players! There have been so many cool things we've done with the community since the Shroud faction has been released back in January, we want to lay them all out here for easy access. There has also been a ton of super amazing content generated by the community as well that we want to spotlight! THURSDAY THROWDOWNS Join us starting at 10am CST on Thursdays for a day of playing the game with fellow players, and a chance to hang out with some of the devs! We also use these Thursday's as important times to run through the week's testing objectives. Your feedback during this time helps us to better balance the game as w |

| Game Patch for March 1, 2016 - UI, Bugs, and Balance | 2016-03-02 | Hi all! Thanks so much for providing your feedback in last week's Thursday playtest. It made a huge difference in what we fixed today. While not all of your feedback was incorporated, we still have other patches planned. Once your game's installation is updated, please be aware that it may take an hour or two for in-game features to show the correct status, including leaderboards, replays, etc. MAR 1, 2016 PATCH NOTES: FACTIONS Camouflaged Shroud Mimic is now slowed down by a Mother Goo when they come in contact with each other Beta Hangar UI updates correctly when units are in construction Units now auto-retarget once a Valiant shields the c |
