I like it so far. Do you already have plans for translating? I think I can read just enough french to understand what is going on and I'm interested in helping out.
Thank you for the encouragement, and waiving the rules...
The game has just been released in French (36 hours) after two years of work; but yes I'm already thinking about translation...
Unfortunately, for budget reasons, the game wasn't originally designed for multilingual support; so there is work not only for translators but also for developers. The good news is that it is open source so we can make that happen.
Another solution might be to crowd-fund the translation and leave the multilingual support to Digitalcusine who know well its own source code and have done amazing work so far (especially considering budget constraints).
Anyway; I'm open to any suggestions and help on the matter; please email me if you'd like personnaly to help out so we can organize ourselves !
It would help if you can open the issue tracker on this project, like this we can discuss new features such as translations. For that go to settings and tick the checkbox for issues.
It's quite clever, but I think the pedagogical function is questionable, because I don't think that the geometric interpretation will be particularly clear to players who haven't read these articles.
The idea of the game seems to be to show people that public-key cryptography exists and can work, yet the actual method of creating the public and private keys (and the fact that the public key can be created easily given the private key and not vice versa) won't be especially obvious.
Indeed it was our idea; with the opportunity for the most curious players to learn more about Crypto, Algorithms and Math. The articles (and the whole "documentation" menu) are for the curious kids (of all ages...)
After 24h hours the game is already a success. I will for sure put a lot of effort in getting the game translated !
