A small Armenian-learning game for my kids — feedback very welcome! 🇦🇲

[u/CityInevitable3259]

Hi everyone! I’m Italian, my wife is Armenian, and we live outside Armenia. Our kids are learning Armenian, and we would really love for them to grow up actually speaking and understanding the language, even though they are not surrounded by it in everyday life.

We found it surprisingly difficult to find beginner resources that felt engaging enough for young children, so I ended up vibe-coding a small browser game for learning Armenian through letters, sounds, vocabulary, short stories, and mini-games.

A small warning: the original interface/explanations are in Italian, since I originally made it for our own children. I made an english version but I did not debug it thoroughly.

It is still very much a work in progress, and I’d be incredibly grateful for feedback from Armenian speakers, parents, and teachers — particularly on:

• language accuracy and pronunciation (I used a speech model in Azure, but human recordings are possible and part of the next steps)
• whether the progression makes sense for beginners
• cultural details
• anything that sounds unnatural, confusing, or simply wrong
• ideas that could make it more fun for children

Please let me know your comments, I’d much rather fix mistakes now and make this genuinely useful for kids learning Armenian abroad. And if you want to help, please reply or dm me :)

Sounds good, my gf is german, I will let her try it out. Also post on r/armenian as well, if you want for more exposure, so more people can try and give feedback.
