I'm the developer behind JPN Burst, a game where you learn the basics of Japanese through flashcards and typing.

JPN Burst, the Typing + Educational + RPG adventure, has two new mini-games to embrace!
It's Snake! But I messed with your controls so now you have to play it... in Japanese! Think you can do that? Hah.
The second mini game is easier... so easy, you'll be tempted to mash through it. In this test of intelligence, you are your own worst enemy.
Watch the devlog for more details!
Like a teacher to a class of elementary students, I want my lessons to be 100% engaging. However, there is no "forced attendance" here. The students have no rules and they will dismiss themselves if I can't stop them. And I don't get paid without students.
So my master plan is to incorporate as many of these mini-games as I can. I have the relaxing Fishing mini-game. I have the tense Office mini-game. I have the fast-paced Raceway mini-game. But I need more.
More NPCs. More stories. More rewards. More content.
I am the designer, programmer, and marketer behind JPN Burst, a game where you learn how to type in Japanese.
In Tetris 99, after you win or lose, you get a little leaderboard, right? There are tons of English names and Japanese names. Well, if you played and beat my game, JPN BURST, you'd be able to read those Japanese usernames!
If you are into anime or manga, your level of understanding of the Japanese world gets a +1. You're not just glossing over it anymore, you are WOKE.
But the problem is that studying is boring. Rosetta Stone. Duolingo. Memrise. They're not engaging. People try them every day and drop them in the very next. Why? I don't know. I dropped it and I'm trying to get back into them.
This is my solution. I'm building a small project that focuses on just Japanese and I'm putting it on a platform that you go to every day: Steam. You're going to see my game on your Steam library. You're going to see "Hiragana Typer" in your Steam trophy case.
It's going to have RPG elements. It's going to feel like real progress. It's just a matter of time.
Play JPN Burst. In Early Access.
