Reviews for "Learn Italian Pronto!"

Not as advertised.

This is titled 'Learn Italian Pronto!', but the game you made is more along the lines of 'See How Much Italian You Already Know!'. It's a test, and if the person wanting to learn Italian doesn't already know Italian, then they're screwed.

I'm personally really interested in learning Italian, so this got my hopes up and then immediately frustrated me. Sigh.

Further, I think some more engaging visuals are in order.

You are right i did not realize how much this flash was more a test then a teaching program! thank you for your truthful input!

Keep it up!

The graphics are a little bland, but aside from that I really liked it!

Poopoothegorilla responds:

Well i am glad that you enjoyed it so far, i am sorry about the graphics i guess i need some more interesting effects! :D

Not bad, but...

I always try to rate something based on what it sets out to do, so I won't comment on the idea of a learning oriented flash on the site.
This could be improved in several ways. First, while visuals are obviously unimportant in such a program, they still help to make it feel much more accessible. Even just choosing any color other tham grey would make this much better. More importantly, rather than simply plunging into the test, consider a brief introduction before each section, outlining the main things that need to be learnt, and THEN testing. In its current form, the flash merely forces the person to guess at what the correct answer is rather than actually learning it. A couple of more steps in the learning process for each category would be very helpful. Try browsing through some language learning sites and note how they lay out their lessons. The sound quality and the menu could be spruced up a bit also. With a bit of effort, this could become significantly better. Hope my criticism helps!

Poopoothegorilla responds:

Thank you for your great criticism. I must say you are presenting great ideas and comments. greatly appreciated. regarding sound quality i do hope people realize that this is an extremely low budget production, But if anything is gained from this some sound equipment would need to be purchased! Thanks alot !

awesome, but..

great, i just wish i knew which one was the correct answer; maybe more of a review at the end of the level of the incorrect answers is needed.

Poopoothegorilla responds:

Hey thanks for your input! i do agree actually knowing the right words would help alot! haha Thanks
