Update to my Japanese study game for iOS, KanaSwirl
1 points by sartakdotorg 4813 days ago
I've been working on my Japanese learning game for the past year. I love Anki but it's kinda vanilla and once your reviews for the day are done there's not much you can do to continue studying with it. So I made KanaSwirl which is what I wished existed when I started learning Japanese four years ago. Because I learned the kana by just writing them down a lot. Booorrring.

So please, check out KanaSwirl in the App Store:

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/kanaswirl/id525332301

The changes in this version are:

★ Selectively study only Hiragana or only Katakana (suggested by Daniel)

★ Tweak accuracy coloring (suggested by Daniel (he's on fire!))

★ I love my shiny new icon. I hope you do too!

★ KanaSwirl is now 25% smaller. That's almost another photo's worth!

★ Starts up a little bit faster too :)

★ You now get Katakana as well in the start screen swirl. ナイス!

Please let me know what you think!
