wow this game is pretty awesome! Love the language concept! I keep dying to bad parkour instead of the language lol. The art and music is very nice. I think the only thing I have a bit off an issue with is the camera lol. It a bit nausea inducing. Other than that great game!!!

Wow, that's a great idea for a game that I've personally never seen explored. The character looks so light and fluffy but falls like a bag of bricks. I really enjoyed the procedural generation; that was really cool. loved the fog, i had a similar thing in my game Great job 7.5/10
This is awesome - I love the art style so much, and it's actually kind of terrifying being chased by the fog!! Such a cool concept.
Very unique game, I like the tie in with the Tower of Babel! The concept is fun and I can see this being easily expandable to a full game :D
This game is simple but really fun,it's amazing! I cleared it on normal with Luganda and Krio, one of which is really similar to English, so I got kinda lucky. I had to clear it twice because it showed 'Game Over' on the clear screen, so I think I entered the wrong password, lol. Amazing game!
Love the idea for this game, I actually wrote a paper on learning languages through games, so it is really cool to see a game attempt it! The game was really fun and enticing experience, which really helps with getting players interested in the learning process.
I enjoy the game. But I'm too busy running away from the fog(no time to read).
I really liked it! It's a great idea to teach languages inside games! Kudos!
Only feedback is that I would like to know which language it is when the game starts, not when I lose/finish it.
This could really be a cool way to learn basics of languages. It's a bit confusing at the beginning to understand what the words are for.
Really original idea and a fresh twist to the classic side-scroller infinite runner platformer.
cheers
Really cool idea with the languages and needing to remember which way to go based on the words!
And it's educational and you actually learn something! I did a couple of tries and managed to escape in the end :)
So yeah very unique, the visuals are cool and the music was pretty good. Enjoyed my time!
Cool game, I like the unique approach to tell the player how to pass the obstacle. I think when you get the idea, the following gameplay becomes a little slow (but not on the highest difficulty). In general, the game is great and well polished, so it provides fun!
Fan game with a very interesting idea that I saw, but did not immediately understand what you need to do in the game, besides running forward
