Help
Problem: The website is blocked to my students
Do your students get a message such as "website can't be reached"?
Solution: Contact your school's technology department, or someone at your school who's in charge of the internet, and tell them you wish to use this website with your class. They can simply unblock it by adding it to their list of approved websites within a couple of minutes.
Problem: I’m using a Mac and the website isn’t working
If you’re using a MacBook or an iMac and the website isn’t working, then try using it with a different browser. If you tried Chrome for Mac and it didn’t work, then try the Safari browser instead (it’s already installed on every Mac), or Firefox (it’s free to download, quick to install, and works great).
How can I save my lists?
After you type your list, click the "Save list / Open saved list" button. Then, type a title for your list, and click the "Save" button.
You can save this way up to 24 lists. They will be stored locally in your browser's cache. Note that if you delete your browser's "history" then your saved lists might get deleted.
Problem: I can't save lists / Saved lists are erased
Your lists might not be saved due to the following reasons:
1. Too strict privacy settings in your browser. (try reducing it, or try another browser).
2. Too strict anti-virus or firewall settings. (try reducing it).
3. In schools, web administrators often disable some features of the computers such as the ability to save changes that you've made.
If you can't get your lists saved, you can always save your lists in a document, as described in the following section:
Saving lists permanently
You can save lists permanently in a text document.
Copy the sharing code (see the section below about sharing lists), and paste it inside a text document (such as MS Word or Google Docs). Type your title above it. You can paste this way as many lists as you wish. Save the document.
In most document types, when you click the sharing code it will automatically open the website with your list inside it.
How Can I share my list with my students?
After you type your list, click the "Share this list" button. An address that contains your list will appear. Copy it, and paste it in your class's website, or in your Google Classroom.
Problem: A game stopped working (can't hear sound, or the screen is black, or doesn't load)
Note that old computers (older than 4 years) might have trouble running some of the games.
Solutions:
1. Try reloading the page (use the "reload" button on the browser, or the F5 key on the keyboard).
Does it work now? If it doesn't, then try the following:
2.
Close the browser, including all its open tabs (better save your word list before closing). If you can, close other computer programs that are open too.
Now wait a few seconds (to let the computer's memory get flushed).
Now open the browser again, get back into spellingtraining.com, go to the problematic page and reload it again.
If it still doesn't work, then:
3. Try the website with another browser (Google Chrome, Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Safari, etc.). If it doesn't work with one - it might work with the other.
If it still doesn't work - please tell me about it! Send me an email to: [email protected]
But also in the meantime, the following solution will probably work -
4. Try using the website from another computer.
Problem: Some games are suddenly missing (Rollercoaster, Dragon)
Solution: If you browse from a computer and this happens, try the following:
1. Maximize the browser's window size.
The games might now reappear.
2. Try zooming out by clicking "Ctrl" with "-" (pressing Ctrl with the minus key). If you zoom out the missing games will appear.
Note that those 3d games (rollercoaster, dragon island, jungle speller etc.) won't appear on tablets and smartphones.

How to properly mess up a game you're writing
Lexsis
Thanks for helping me write "Sveto4"
A short guide on how to write bad games correctly very game”, so to speak “game *O*BUT”? But what about the srach on the topic: “authors - we will now tell you a lot of new things about you and your personality”?
No. So things won't work.
To everyone who is not indifferent to maintaining traditions, we dedicate this small manual to you.
Preparation stage
Do not play for at least half a year before you start writing your first game in your life - otherwise you will spoil the whole buzz!
What kind of writers are they who know what it's like to be a player? Disorder.
Throw away the idea of a plot or concept - it's a waste of time, they won't appreciate it anyway, so why bother?
Be sure to put all the ideas that come to mind into the game. The game is rubber, and the balance is a bad form.
Write a game with friends and be sure to quarrel because someone did not take someone's task, and in general "no one does anything, it's two days before the game, and I don't write games with you anymore."
Each problem you come up with must have at least several decision branches and answers.
If these are coordinates, then in variations of solutions they should hit different parts of the city.
And of course, the CORRECT answer must be OBVIOUS, and how can anyone decide otherwise...?
Do not forget about the "author's logic", it is characterized by decisions in the style of "this is how I see it."
The absence of comments, descriptions, warnings, phone numbers for feedback and other services is also good - only hardcore!
Be sure to choose the scariest locations. Although dirty, smelly and small-sized will do for the entourage.
The worse the lock, the more shit even during the game. Bad PR is also PR.
Marking step
The most important thing in this business is to reach the last. The ideal thing is to finish the last levels already during the game, and the height of skill is right in the presence of teams at the location.
Don't forget about such chips as: black on black, red on rusty, ultra thin markers a la "mosquito breeding organ".
It is important to write codes in such a way that they are not readable at all.
Or not found. And it is even better to write codes that are not suitable for remoteness to the label.
And it is obligatory that they mislead, like: “Is it generally a letter or a number?”, “I see zero here alone”? etc.
Do not indulge players with stencil marks and codes, you do not have a circle of crazy hands, but a serious occupation - an autoquest.
Do not take pictures of the applied codes, develop your memory. Do not write on a piece of paper either, otherwise you will lose it.
Well, in no case do not take into account the ratio: the number of codes - the time of arrival - the complexity of the task. These are the problems of the players that they will not be able to remove 80 codes in 5 minutes.
Testing
And delete this word from your lexicon... This item is missing in the algorithm for writing a bad game, because you have already done everything in the best way for our genre.
Errors should not be edited either. No, but what? The players came to the autoquest, and not to the spelling exam.
On the game
Start celebrating the writing of the game even before the briefing, by the end you have to be in bad shape, it's a tradition.
You can all drink, but the agents on the levels must be barely standing or sleeping in the bushes!
Forget to charge the phones indicated for contacting the authors, or better yet, turn them off on purpose.
During the game, do not forget to “leak” information to your pets. Let them win “brilliantly” at least once and no one will notice it.
After the game
It is very important to remember a number of standard expressions here: you don't know how to use it!" etc.
The main thing is to breed more srach.
Everyone who says that they didn't like the game is to pour insults in response and not draw any conclusions.
In general, as the devil said in the famous Soviet cartoon: sneeze at everyone!
The most important thing to remember is that the more players you discourage the desire to play your games, the better the bad game was!
Good luck with your nasty things!

10 Fun Online Games for Designers
Online games are ideal for learning new tools, practicing unfamiliar techniques, and developing basic UI/UX skills, and help designers keep up with a rapidly evolving industry.
Successful designers are constantly improving their skills and learning something new. However, finding extra time to study during the work week is not easy. Online games are a fun and educational way to hone existing skills and acquire new ones. Through interactive, addictive (and often free) online games, you can master technical aspects of design such as alignment, typography, and color theory.
Online games not only teach us new design techniques, but also lift our spirits, increase our creativity and help us to use the basic principles of design more effectively. Whenever I have free time or I face a serious problem at work, I play one of these games, which allows me to look at the situation with fresh eyes.
Train your eye
Alignment is a fundamental design principle that defines visual composition, usability and readability.
It's Centered That is a great game to practice your eye and help you quickly spot placement errors. Your task is to determine if the point is in the center of the figure.
It's a simple concept, but the game is quite complex because the dots are often very close to the center.
The game develops compositional thinking by having you analyze geometric shapes and find anchor points in intersecting and adjacent shapes.
It's Centered That tests the players' eye by asking them to determine if a point is centered.Learn more about type design
Understanding the nuances of type use helps designers establish visual hierarchy, ensure text is legible, and better convey meaning.
The game "I shot the serif" ( pun: literally translated “I shot the serif font”, meaning the expression “I shot the Sheriff” - I shot the sheriff ) tests how quickly you can recognize serif fonts . At the very beginning, you see two letters, one of which is serifed. You must "shoot" the last one by clicking on it before the time runs out. As you move forward, you will see more and more letters at the same time, which makes it harder to find letters in the right style and “shoot” them.
This game will keep you on your toes! I play it every week and I'm always surprised how difficult it gets after a few rounds.
The game I shot the serif allows you to test how quickly players can recognize and "shoot" various serif letters.Typewar is another type trainer that challenges your ability to identify type. In each round, a letter appears on the screen, and you must choose the correct font name from the two options presented.
By answering questions, you gain or lose points, and their number depends on how many players answered the same question correctly. Instant feedback, real-time statistics, and familiarity with little-known fonts are great motivation to keep learning.
Typewar develops players' ability to identify different fonts.Learn to identify correct kerning by eye
One way to improve the readability of digital text is to adjust the correct kerning, or spacing between characters. Kerning often goes unnoticed by designers as it is predefined in every font.
However, it's helpful to know how to correct kerning if you find character spacing wrong, or if you need to create a unique logo or font for a client.
Kern Type will help you hone your kerning skills by testing how good you are at placing letters in words. For each word, the player receives a certain number of points, the maximum is 100. You can switch between three view modes: your solution, optimal kerning, and their combination for comparison.
I keep coming back to this game because it's really hard to score 100 points. She reminds me that we always have room to grow.
Kern Type tests players' ability to properly adjust letter spacing.Take color to the next level
Improve your color skills to make smarter and more meaningful design decisions in your projects. Color is a game where you have to identify hue and saturation levels as well as complementary, similar, triad and tetrad color combinations.
On the screen we see an interactive color wheel, in the center of which one or another color / colors is located.
You must determine what color it is within 10 seconds. The task becomes more complicated when you need to match shades for triad and tetrad color schemes.
Master Your Vector Techniques
Tools like Figma, Sketch, and Adobe Illustrator allow designers to create vector digital graphics that scale without loss of quality, unlike pixel art that loses resolution when enlarged. However, drawing and working with vector shapes and curves can be a daunting task.
The Boolean Game will introduce you to Boolean operations designed to quickly create and modify 2D shapes in vector graphics editors. A figure appears on the screen that needs to be repeated. After a few seconds, the shape turns into an outline. On the left side of the screen are several shapes that you can drag inside the path to reproduce the given shape.
At the bottom of the screen are four Boolean operations: union, subtraction, intersection, and difference.
When the player presses the "Continue" button, a step-by-step animation starts showing how the selected boolean operation changes shapes. If it is chosen incorrectly, the animation will help you visualize your mistakes.
Shape Type is another "vector" game that should be given a chance. The player's task is to give the letters the correct shape by dragging the various anchor points. In this case, you can get a maximum of 100 points.
As with Kern Type, you can switch between three view modes to compare your result with the original shape. Shape Type not only allows you to improve your drawing skills in vector shapes, it is a great way to get a closer look at the anatomical features of various fonts.
Shape Type allows you to practice changing the shape of vector letters. The latest game to improve your vector skills is The Bézier Game. With it, you can master the pen tool to create more professional graphics.
Introductory lessons demonstrate how to use controls such as alt and shift to position anchor points and manipulate their tendrils. The game will teach you how to draw simple geometric shapes, as well as more complex shapes such as a heart and a car, using a minimum number of anchor points, or nodes. To keep you interesting, the number of available nodes for each level is limited, and their countdown is constantly on the screen.
I love this game because it shows how the thoughtful placement of anchor points and the correct angles of their handles can help create smoother lines and curves.
The Bézier Game helps players hone important pen skills such as placing anchor points and dragging their pens.Master the basics of coding
Whether it's about career advancement or productive interaction with developers, understanding the basics of HTML and CSS makes a designer a critical asset for a cross-disciplinary team. Moreover, knowledge of the front-end helps designers to not flirt and create solutions that can be implemented in practice.
Flexbox Froggy teaches you the basics of coding step by step. You'll be introduced to CSS flexbox, a CSS3 layout model that simplifies the positioning of UI components, allowing you to adjust alignment, element spacing, and element wrapping on web pages with just a line or two of code.
In the game, you write CSS code to help the mischievous frog and his buddies navigate the screen. Above the code editor is a mini-guide containing various commands you can use. As you write code on the left side of the screen, corresponding changes occur on the right side. Did the frog reach the water lily? So you did everything right.
Flexbox Froggy teaches you how to write basic CSS code.Gain new knowledge about UI/UX
Online games help designers expand their knowledge of UI/UX and design effective experiences that increase conversions and ROI (return on investment).
Can't Unsee test your knowledge of basic design concepts such as hierarchy, contrast, alignment, typography and styling.
Two components appear on the screen, your task is to choose the more correct and user-friendly option.
Components may look the same to the untrained eye, but an experienced designer should be able to tell them apart by looking for small differences, such as misaligned text or uneven padding.
In Can't Unsee, players need to determine which of the two design options is more correct and user-friendly.Get the most out of your online games
I'm often amazed at how fast the design industry evolves. Sometimes it becomes too difficult to keep up with new tools and methods and the pressure starts to take a toll on my creativity.
I do my job best when I approach problems with a childlike spontaneity, which is why I love these games so much: they allow you to learn and practice while maintaining a sense of play and wonder.
Whether your goal is to change careers, upgrade your skills, or learn a new UI/UX method, online games for designers will test and develop your artistic and technical abilities.
