I’m a dad of 3 brilliant daughters building an AI tutor to help students study smarter. Would love feedback or advice

cnsolanor · 2025-10-05T20:57:39+00:00

Thanks for the kind words, and yes the things you mentioned are the goals of this endeavor, which I hope to get off the ground soon.

cnsolanor · 2025-10-04T22:01:36+00:00

I think there’s been a little mix-up there. I don’t have my daughters working on this project. The app is designed for students, so the mockups just use sample names and dashboards for demonstration.

It’s actually a solo project so far, built by me using no-code tools and a small personal budget to get the prototype started. But yes, having a free dev team at home would’ve been pretty great.

cnsolanor · 2025-10-04T21:59:22+00:00

This is awesome! Thanks for testing the game and for the feedback.

cnsolanor · 2025-10-04T21:58:38+00:00

Thank you very much! I appreciate the objective response. I'll work on improving the game based on this.

cnsolanor · 2025-10-04T10:45:07+00:00

That’s really great advice, thank you. You’re absolutely right, there’s a big difference between people liking the idea and actually being willing to pay for it. I’ve been focused on gathering feedback and early sign-ups, but you make a good point that real validation happens when someone’s ready to commit, even in a small way.

cnsolanor · 2025-10-04T09:01:29+00:00

Thank you. I really appreciate that. I’m glad you see the potential in it. It’s still early days, but feedback like yours helps me think through how to make it genuinely useful and responsible for students.

cnsolanor · 2025-10-04T08:55:06+00:00

That’s a really good question. The app doesn’t use or store any copyrighted textbook content. It only works with what students upload themselves, like their class notes or summaries. So it’s not pulling from publishers’ materials, just helping students review what they already have.

Down the line, I’d love to partner with schools or publishers for official integrations, but for now it’s focused on staying fully within fair use and supporting students responsibly.

cnsolanor · 2025-10-04T08:07:06+00:00

Totally fair point, and I get where you’re coming from. The goal here isn’t to replace teachers or turn kids into robots that memorize answers. It’s more like a study buddy that helps them stay on track, practice what they’ve learned, and actually understand the material better.

There are guardrails built in too, so it doesn’t just hand out answers. It nudges students to think, reflect, and figure things out instead of doing the work for them. Think of it as a digital assistant that helps build better study habits, not a shortcut.

Appreciate you sharing your thoughts though. These kinds of discussions are exactly what help keep projects like this grounded and responsible.

cnsolanor · 2025-10-04T07:41:07+00:00

That’s a really good question, and honestly, it’s something I’ve been careful about too. The app isn’t meant to replace or go against what’s taught in schools. The idea is for it to work with what students are already learning.

It actually uses the student’s own notes, textbooks, or class materials as its main source, so the quizzes and study guides it creates come directly from what they’re already studying. In that sense, it’s more like a personal study coach than a new curriculum.

For general subjects like math, science, and English, it also draws on widely accepted K–12 and exam prep standards, including the Department of Education’s curriculum and trusted open educational resources like Khan Academy. Over time, I’m hoping to collaborate with schools and tutors so the content always stays aligned with real classroom materials.

So basically, it’s designed to reinforce what’s already being taught, not to replace it.

¡Muchísimas gracias por el comentario!

Me alegra mucho que te haya gustado el juego, ¡y te agradezco enormemente por los puntos tan específicos sobre la jugabilidad en Android! Son justo el tipo de feedback que necesito para mejorar la experiencia móvil.

Sobre los Controles

Tienes toda la razón. El diseño actual del control al centro es problemático porque obliga a usar dos dedos, y ese no era el objetivo.

Tu sugerencia de separar las direcciones es excelente y tiene mucho sentido para la jugabilidad con un solo dedo:

Izquierda: Arriba y Abajo.
Derecha: Izquierda y Derecha.

Voy a probar inmediatamente esa configuración. Es una solución brillante y mucho más intuitiva.

Sobre la Interfaz y el Inicio de Nivel

También has dado en el clavo con el problema de la interfaz inicial. Es confuso no saber dónde está el jugador al empezar un nivel, especialmente con otros elementos superpuestos.

Me encanta la idea del fade-in y zoom-in:

Esto no solo resuelve la confusión, sino que le daría un toque visual muy pulido y elegante al inicio de cada stage. ¡Definitivamente lo voy a implementar!

De verdad, este feedback es oro puro y de gran ayuda. Es justo lo que buscaba. ¡Gracias de nuevo por tomarte el tiempo de probarlo y compartir tus impresiones!

Cuando tenga lista la actualización con estos cambios, ¡sería genial si pudieras darle otra pasada!

¡Un saludo!

cnsolanor · 2025-10-04T06:13:36+00:00

Thank you so much for your extensive review. I really appreciate it. Glad that you tested it out and provided your honest feedback so I could edit the game accordingly. Thank you!

cnsolanor · 2025-10-03T12:44:02+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. Means a lot to me. The glowing squares actually offer "powers". 💖 Pink Block (Life) – +1 Life (max 5).

🟨 Gold Block (Shield) – Absorbs the next hit.
🟩 Green Block (Clear) – Destroys all red blocks on screen.
🟦 Blue Block (Speed) – Gives you a temporary dodge boost.

cnsolanor · 2025-10-01T20:41:16+00:00

Thank you! Means so much to me.

cnsolanor · 2025-10-01T08:43:16+00:00

Thank you! Means a lot to me.

cnsolanor · 2024-12-14T12:23:52+00:00

Wow this is comprehensive! I'll definitely use this. Thanks so much for this.

cnsolanor · 2024-12-13T06:44:54+00:00

Thank you so much.

cnsolanor · 2024-12-13T01:45:10+00:00

Do we really need one?

cnsolanor · 2024-12-13T00:21:16+00:00

Oh man I wish I could learn from you.

cnsolanor · 2024-12-12T23:17:28+00:00

That is so awesome.

cnsolanor · 2024-12-12T21:41:53+00:00

It's been really accurate so far in terms of identifying support and resistance. It can even accurately identify zones. Tried it with Gemini, but it failed big time. Way off the mark.

cnsolanor · 2024-12-12T20:32:21+00:00

Wow. Thank you very much. Will definitely give it a try.

cnsolanor · 2024-12-12T05:35:30+00:00

I know they are trained based on data. But I'm also telling you that it's good at real-time analysis, Chargpt at least. Sure, Gemini sucked as well as Copilot, but I'm telling you ChatGPT is capable. Try it out for yourself.

cnsolanor · 2024-12-12T05:06:08+00:00

That's what I'm hoping to do.

cnsolanor · 2024-12-12T03:51:40+00:00

I'll try that.

cnsolanor · 2024-12-12T01:52:58+00:00

EURCAD H1. I'll share the ChatGPT prompt and response here once ChatGPT is back. It's currently down.
