that's literally it
oh yeah, and Frog Fractions, but good luck getting it to work in 2024
Looks like fun. Do I need to make a teacher account to have full access?
There's a free online version that teaches python and javascript. You can get a subscription for Java and C#.
Are there any good games or programs for learning Japanese? I've been using Duolingo so far but I've seen people criticize it for not going deep enough.
duolingo is a waste of goddamn time.
read tae kim's grammar guide.
learn basic kanji, correct stroke order, and how dictionaries work
then play an old jrpg or some shit
Ignore this homosexual. Watch Cure Dilly videos on Youtube and try Memrise for pronounciation.
Don't do any of this shit.
Read more, and listen.
If you can't do either of those things yet, then do whatever the frick it takes to get to where you can read more and listen.
>read tae kim's grammar guide.
Tae Kim's grammar guide has caused irreparable damage to the Japanese learning community
>Memrise
Years ago it was just a worse Anki, then they tried to completely reinvent it into a paid service with no community content at all, everyone should stay the frick away from it even if they haven't killed it yet.
Correct
as you can see by the replies there is literally no consensus on the best way to learn jap except that all the most fun ways are also the worst
just wait until AI eliminates the need to learn entirely
I've been using BunPro to drill on stuff. Seems pretty good. The best thing is to move as soon as possible to actually reading real world stuff.
Frank's Adventure was very educational

Want to LARP as an assembly programmer?
i can actually pogrom asm
qrd?
Just as an example, in the 6502 assembly(which the NES uses) you can write:
>COMPARE
> LDA $10
> CMP $20
> BEQ EQUAL
> ADC $01
> JMP COMPARE
>EQUAL
> STA $30
Which is the RPGM equivalent of:
>Label: 1
>Control Variables: V[01] = 16
>Conditional Branch: V[01] == 32
Variables: V[48] = V[01]
>Else
Variables: V[01] += 1
>>Jump to Label: 1
>End
They're closer than you realize on a basic level.
it's not that they're close, it's that early rpg maker scripting was really primitive because it was meant to make simple event logic. RPGM will do the whole game controls and rendering for you, 6502 will not draw sprites and sound and handle IO for you and THIS IS the hard part of assembly because you actually need to read the technical references and manuals of the chips you program for
Treasure Mountain gang rise up.
The snowy one was so comfy
I like that one that takes place in a TV Studio more. I don't know why. Might just be that I hate those fricking elves on that mountain.

Learn Japanese so you can learn English.
does Maitetsu count as an edutainment game?
Depends. How much train autism is REALLY in there? Will I come out smarter by the end?
depending what do you need that knowledge for, Maitetsu can teach you how to turn a train into portable gas chamber
Does anyone remember a game from the 90s or perhaps very early 2000s that was a point and click adventure game about archaeology and dinosaurs? It had a third-person cartoon aesthetic and you could get a game over early on by interacting with a half-dug up skeleton and it collapsing on you. That's all I remember.

Does this count as edutainment? Because I've always really enjoyed it
