    This was a ton of fun for me so I'm sure my kids will get a kick out of it. However, there may be a glitch twice now the game has stopped after about 90,000 meters

    This sounds awesome, but the link isn't working for me at the moment...

    This looks fun! however i cant use it as the font used isn't what my students are being taught in school, is there any way you can upload a version with the font HG教科書体? or even "Comic Sans MS"? it would be greatly appreciated!

    @Ulysses 90.000 meters?!
    As in ninety thousand?

    I don't know how to reproduce that error. I gotta 'git gud' :D

    @Metapod updated with Comic Sans ! :D

    The first two links seem like they take me to a different game, but the alternate link works perfectly! Thank you!

    @noveena surely it's your imagination and not me failing to juggle multiple projects at once.

    (fixed, thanks for letting me know) :D

    Thanks so much for making the Comic Sans version. I have a whole class with nothing planned for tomorrow so thisll be a good time filler

    This game looks rad!

    Is it possible to make a version where students have to choose from English words written 'correctly' in Hepburn romanization and 'incorrectly' in Romaji? I think it would really help getting the Elementary school 6th graders ready for JHS English.

  10. Aurora Edutainment March 28, 2023

    @Umakara It is certainly possible.
    But it would require me to make a list of three 'wrong' answers for every one 'correct' answer. And I get really antsy when I have to do a lot of data entry :D

    Right now, the script just takes the 'correct' word and scrambles it three times. Much better for my attention deficit :D

    lol I might have made it glitch too, I got up to 111,508 before it just froze :D Glob is just sailing through the dark sky... It also didn't give me any boosters that time too
