This is a really cool game! Word games tend to have bad characters and all! But you made everything perfect!!
Also... now we need that with Spanish, German, and so on... and with way more planets haha! :D
Very nice idea and it’s fun to play, love it!
This is a 5 starts game! Lovely and smart!
Great idea and the presentation and storytelling were fantastic! Really polished as well, brilliant stuff!
Love the idea, feels like a cute game version of Arrival! The art direction especially stood out for me - it looks awesome. Well done!
E: Oh and I really liked the humor in the dialogue too :D
Awesome take on the theme. Really fun game
Awesome game!
Totally loved it!
You win this jam for me congrats. Just a small thing but I think the sign should automatically withdraw when you get too far from them. Still amazing game
I really enjoyed the mechanic a lot. It was super fun to play and the main mechanic was super fun to figure out. Great art design . Fun dialogue. I think this game does a great job innovating on new ideas for a game. Great job!
A really fun and fantastic romp into a foreign world! I partly wish the game would tell you what words you got incorrect, but I will say that definitely encourages replayability! Great stuff!
this was so awesome, i totally loved this! uncovering all the clues and different interactions was seamless, it was adorable, the gameplay was super smooth, and super fun concept.
This is the cutest game.... I LOVE IT. The speech, the interface, the dialogue, the music/sfx, they all fit together so well. Such a nice game, and I'd love to see this made into an actual language educational game - it'll be great fun to solve puzzles while learning another language.
Really cute and really like the concept! 25/25 words but only 76% correct, it's a tough puzzle but fun to figure out!
Thanks! The rating system is a bit strict and not lenient with synonyms. If I had more time, I would've made it better but oh well, what counts is that you've established a connection with the Thesauri folk ;)
nice game, loved playing it. was curious which of my words were wrong, would be a nice addition at the end.
Saw development of this on twitter! It was fun trying to figure out what the words meant through the different puzzles and clues. I was a bit bad at remembering the different spellings so it would have been nice if the notebook stayed open whilst typing responses.
You can keep it open, actually. You don’t have to click on a response field to start typing, it’s active by default.
Oh nice, guess I was just too use to having to click on UI elements to edit them. Thanks for the clarification!
80% correct YEEEEEEES! I really love this game. Took me like 15 minutes to play and I'm enjoying trying to translate. I still don't get all but still a good first try for me! Awesome game and would like to see more planets with other translations + clues around. It would be great if the original words will still appear below the translated one just like the one below for example. But still, a great game!

A very solid game, the art is outstanding.
AWESOME GAME
always loved your games.
got 68%. will play again to get 100%
Thanks! The scoring system may be a bit wonky, I think I got 96% one time despite obviously knowing every word by heart :D
