Show HN: Learn foreign languages by playing games (language-monster.com) 3 points by lchsk 9y ago ↗ HN
[–] coreyp_1 9y ago ↗ cute idea, but a few issues I had:1. No instructions. I couldn't figure out what to do for a while.2. No sound? Learning to hear a foreign language is much more important than learning to read it! [–] lchsk 9y ago ↗ Hi, thanks for your comment!1. There actually are instructions (button in the top left corner, shown during the game). I guess it should be more visible to be useful :) 2. Great idea, I'll certainly think about it! [–] 1niels 9y ago ↗ Love the idea! However, the info button in the top left corner wasn't working for me. [–] lchsk 9y ago ↗ Thanks! A bit weird, should be working. Will look into that.

[–] apixline 9y ago ↗ Nice idea but the left-click when I target a word don't work (Chrome, Windows 8.1). Plane with up arrow is okay . Good luck. [–] lchsk 9y ago ↗ Oh, wasn't expecting that :( I will fix it asap. Thanks! [–] lchsk 9y ago ↗ @apixline Thanks a lot again, the issue is fixed (along with the buttons in the top-left corner not working on windows).
