30 second Youtube demonstration:

I’m sure there is a better name for it…I made a little character and environment to help my students learn their first form at home. It’s not really much of a game, as all you can do is click “GO!” to watch the next animation.

Still, I think it’s fun to watch the little guy go.



You cant post a web player, but you can post a executable file, cant you?

It looks great!

Awesome idea !

I mean it :wink:

Si Jak !

Heh, thanks! Good to know what a fellow Tae Kwon Do practitioner thinks of the idea!

Surely you ought to use a more anatomically accurate model than this when depicting form?

Good work though!

I think a model that could show hand and foot positions a bit more clearly would be better.

Thanks for the feedback!

I thought about that, but decided that it would be better to make the model more cute than functional for two reasons:

  1. this isn’t meant to teach people Tae Kwon Do techniques; that’s what classes are for
  2. the moves are clearly presented in text form

I just want to encourage them to practice at home using a cutesy video game tutor. :smile:

Thanks!

Ta-da! :smile:

Added: continuous mode (or step by step), front/back camera views, secondary camera, pretty stuff on the walls, sounds, and music.
