Vortoj [Dashboard]

VORTOJ is an educational game that mixes learning languages, music, and jumping around on a dance pad. It’s perfect for elementary school kids to pick up new words, practice grammar, and get the hang of pronunciation while having a blast. Plus, it helps them get better at speaking other languages and using technology early on, which makes them more connected to the world and sets them up for better job opportunities down the road.

My main focus on this project was to create a simple dashboard that can be used by teachers to create questions for their students.

Due to time and budget constraints, I went with a super simple combination. Locally hosted Supabase instance (via Docker), combined with Angular as frontend. Using Supabase has allowed us to also implement the authentication flow into the game itself (the game was made in Godot btw.).

The game offers 6 types of questions:

  • Falling words
    • Decide whether the word is correct right when it hits the line!
  • Image – word
    • Which word aligns with the picture? Your call!
  • Audio word
    • What was the word you just heard?
  • Spelling
    • Which of the two is the correct spelling?
  • Gap filling
    • Choose which word best fills the gap in the sentence.
  • Adventure
    • Play a game controlling a character, meeting questions as you go along!

The questions are then split into categories, which are differentiated by their language and difficulty. 6 types of games combined with languages and difficulties allows players to mix the gameplay to their own liking.
