soc_puppet...Fuck me, someone on Tumblr saw my language learning game proposal and messaged me with their skillset to see if they could get involved.
I'm not a project leader! I suck at managing things! I cannot deny that it's cool that people want to be involved to the point of listing their relevant skills, but having a cool idea does not automatically a leader make!
*pant pant pant*
Okay. Okay, I think I'm somewhat calmer now.
Maybe I should just start a Discord server for this. Call it Language Town or something. Let the three people who have offered their coding expertise rock-paper-scissors over what platform(s) to release on.
...Dear sweet mercy, I have no idea what I'm doing.
Edit: Smallest possible game version: Your Aunt Minerva(?) has decided that she wants to spend the rest of her life traveling, and asked if you want her house. On the one hand, free house! Who's turning that down in this economy? On the other hand, Aunt Minerva's house is in the remote Language Town, where only a few people speak the same language as you. Everyone else speaks [other language]. You're free to move in and decorate the house as you see fit, and your aunt also left you with a reasonable chunk of change she got from selling most of her worldly possessions, but you still need to understand the language in order to get by. Thus begins your new life in Language Town.
Smallest possible game version includes furnishings and clothing stores with rotating stock, the mayor or whoever who can help translate things for you, basic items in the house with basic interactive functions, and maybe a way to earn a bit of money. Selling flowers, maybe?
