Fix for the fix!
Many thanks to user spielerinchen who pointed out that the last puzzle of Act 1 had bugs that could make it impossible to complete! It's fixed now. To make a long story short, the security update to the underlying engine I recently did also changed the way the engine interacted w

Engine bugfix CVE-2025-59489
Updated the underlying Unity engine to include a security fix. Also updated the copyright date on the credits page. Whew. I bet you were real worried about that being out of date.

Nerd Drop Achievement Fix
Fixed the Nerd Drop Achievement not being rewarded when you reach level 50. I studied computers at a good school. I've spent decades practicing my craft. I eat my vegetables. But I used a "less than" when I should have used a "less than or equals" and I'm sorry. I'm sorry to ever

4k Remaster!
While performing a routine review, we discovered that there was one girl who was uncertain as to whether or not she liked robots. This was unacceptable, so we stopped everything and dedicated our beings to refreshing Girls Like Robots. 100+ improved textures Delicious font crispn
While performing a routine review, we discovered that there was one girl who was uncertain as to whether or not she liked robots. This was unacceptable, so we stopped everything and dedicated our beings to refreshing Girls Like Robots.

100+ improved textures
Delicious font crispness everywhere!
Support for modern Macs + 64 bit Linux
Better multi-monitor support
Much improved controller support
In game display options (no more launcher before the game)
Underlying engine updated for increased compatibility and future proofing
Made Nerd Drop level up way faster
10% smaller install size!
This update is a labor of love that took a year of weekends. Well, for Ziba, not so much for Luigi. Luigi had the foresight to draw the original images at GIGANTIC RESOLUTIONS. Modern advances in image compression now let us use those original images while actually reducing the overall size of the game!
That was the fun part. There was also a bit of less fun stuff. You see, GLR was running on a 10 year old version of Unity. It would no longer run on macs. Multiple-monitor support was wonky. The clock was ticking on its general compatibility. But updating Unity was not just clicking a button. 100s of tiny, unexpected shifts an cracks opened up. Particles disappeared. Textures were flipped. Animation timing was broken. Audio levels were all over the place.
So I went over every little bit, and put it back in place... and them some. I couldn't help but polish up some parts along the way.
Girls Like Robots has shaken off the dust and is ready to shine on your first or fiftieth romp through the world's best seating arrangement puzzler with an old time string band soundtrack!

Trading Cards!
Back in 1924 when my grandfather invented rectangles, life was simpler. Kids these days expect trading cards to spawn after every 30-60 minutes engaging in any given activity. Ate lunch? Here's a trading card commemorating your burrito. Why don't you trade it for the card your fr

Tiny Update!
I added a button that does a thing when you press it. It's on a menu. Switches between English and Japanese. Bet you wish you could add buttons like that to things. I totally can. I totally did. Also, did you notice? There was a typo in Japanese. I got that. Taken care of. Everyb

Big Update! Face remixing and a full Japanese translation!
Face remixing and a full Japanese translation. That's right. Japan has given me so much. And now I give back to them (and you). What do I give? Robots with unibrows and flowers in their blonde, wavy hair. Girls with wicked scars and wickeder mustaches. Nerds with sad, thinning ha
