My First Game is a Typing Game

I've always had big ideas and I'm not sure if my first game is a big idea or a small one. It's just a simple typing game. But then I added Japanese.

If you don't know, Japanese has three writing systems: Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji. The first two have 40-some characters each. Okay, I can tell you since I'm this far in development that it's at least 12 lessons each. You can call them missions or whatever, but right now, it's a copy-pasted playthrough where the first mission looks exactly the same as the last one. So yeah. Not so simple anymore after adding "Japanese" to it.

And any student will tell you, Kanji is something else. That's at least 1000 characters/vocab right there.

See the video below for the first dev log.
