Twinfinite: Tyto Online is a new online MMO that plans to be just as educational as it is fun. The game is still being developed by an independent studio known as Immersed Games that means to create a game where the fun from MMOs like World of Warcraft can be effectively combined with the elements required for learning to create a single location where kids can get both at once.

Thanks, Gary! We've come a long, long way and learned a lot since we did the Kickstarter over two years ago. We still have a lot to learn, but we're at a good point and getting awesome feedback to improve and build from here.
It's not graphically amazing, but it gets the job done and kids don't seem to mind anyway.
