Linguist FPS - The Language Learning FPS

Stress-Induced Reinforcement Learning (SIRL) —think flashcards, image recognition, and language commands under duress. It involves practicing the chosen language in response to rewards or penalties in high-pressure or challenging conditions. In layman’s terms, it’s like a timed quiz with escalating rewards for correct answers and penalties for mistakes, driving you to strengthen vocabulary through focused repetition. I’ve found SIRL to be an enjoyable and effective learning aid for German, doubling as a mental warm-up for my academic goals. The intensity of these high-stakes challenges sharpens retention and builds confidence under pressure, making learning both fun and impactful. Thank you, Rocket Boy Games, for creating this innovative game!

So I am a linguist and there are a lot of things they do right here. A number of lines are context specific which is really useful. Its like go up stairs, go down stairs... etc. The vocabulary is very basic but useful. This game, really the concept, is really good. I think it has really good bones for a cod like fps or maybe even battlefield or perhaps something with even more depth. Like Ghost Recon Wildlands or Splinter Cell Double Agent where you can question locals. Various geographic areas where where they use varying degrees of the native language and target language. So maybe an FPS RPG? There are instance when you can walk to things in the environment and it will give you the words in the target language

I feel like the idea is cool, but there are too many bugs and bad designs to recommend. I think the devs should play their own game more and they'll easily see the pain points and issues.

I’m disappointed. It’s too boring, and there are very few words to practice.

Excellent game, taught me a few words and phrases and got me to think quickly as I went through the levels.. Oh, and the soundtrack is great! It felt like playing DOOM again in the 90s but I was learning at the same time, and the graphics for an indie game are on point. Recommend!

well its fun only for those who are truly immersed however id like to see more niche langs like hungarian or other ♥♥♥♥

Eu entrei no jogo pensando que eu ia treinar inglês, no final eu só estava preocupado em dar bala nos robôs e fugir deles kkkkkkkkk joguei o treinamento mas isso aconteceu no modo normal (mais alto), depois que você pega por volta de 7 cristais, o jogo começa a aparecer tantos robôs que fica insano, morri por que eu estava sem munição com uns 100 deles atrás de mim kkkkkkkk Ainda não testei em outros idiomas, em japônes deve ser legal. Se esse jogo tivesse mais umas boas horas de polimento e ajustes no código, somando com isso a divulgação para youtubers, o jogo ele seria nota 10 e venderia bem. Acho que com poucos ajustes ele já ficaria beeeemmmm melhor. IDEIAS: - Poderia ser bem mais dinâmico. Ao acertar cada mini desafio, após passar a "porta" para o próximo, em vez de ouvir a voz dizendo "Muito bem!", já dizer a próxima tarefa como "abrir a porta verde". O motivo: Precisa chegar muito perto da porta para aí sim ouvir o áudio. - Ao clicar no teclado para digitar a senha, pausar o jogo pois se tiver robôs em volta você toma dano kkkkkk - Se tivesse um mapa pressionando M seria muito bom, e nas "dungeons" pendentes que você não fez poderia ter um icone na porta de entrada. Até agora joguei apenas uma hora, quando eu jogar mais e tiver mais ideias eu volto. Desenvolvedores, se quiserem que eu faço esses testes e dê mais ideias, entre em contato na minha Steam, abraço!
