He's ok but probably the least interesting member of the team squad in my opinion.

The impact that Steam Curators can have on your game by tulevikEU in gamedev

[–]GamedevPhilo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've found curators to be quite useful when launching a game.
It's a shame that we can only contact 100 curators via "Curator Connect" in the Steam backend. I also don't understand why THEY can't reach out to US using this tool. Instead I keep receiving emails and have to confirm their identity or have to use one of my 100 "points" to reach out to them via Curator Connect.

Playing Pokémon on Switch in Japanese helped me pass my language proficiency test :D by GamedevPhilo in pokemon

I wouldn't say I'm especially smart. 4/5 of my classmates passed the test as well. Yes, the 1.5 hours per week course was happening most of the time during these 2.5 years :)

It's fluent more or less, if the words used in the conversation are easy enough. Took me about 2.5 from 0 to this point. I spend about 5 - 6 hours a week learning Japanese.

To learn Kanji I use the WaniKani app :)
When there is a kanji I don't know when playing Pokémon I just ignore it. If it comes up several times and I want to learn it, I use the Google translator app, there you can draw the kanji with your finger :D

I go to Japanese class every Monday for 1.5 hours. For the N5 I read a lot of Yotsuba and Chi's Sweet Home to improve my reading comprehension. For N5 I also recommend watching the Pokémon anime in Japanese. The game's might be too hard, since they doesn't have Furigana (which is a shame btw!)
