MASTER HIRAGANA & KATAKANA IN A SNAP

Learning the basics of the Japanese alphabet doesn't have to be a slog. Kana Snap strips away the bloat of modern language apps and turns memorization into a high-speed arcade game. Designed by a student developer who is actively learning the language, this tool combines the science of SRS (Spaced Repetition System) with the dopamine of an arcade shooter. 

KEY FEATURES

🧠 Powered by SRS (Spaced Repetition). This isn't just random shuffling. The game uses a dynamic Spaced Repetition algorithm to track your hesitations and mistakes in real time. It intelligently resurfaces your "problem characters" right before you forget them, ensuring maximum retention with minimum effort.

🔇 Visual-Only Learning (Windows) On Windows and Steam Deck, the game is a pure test of visual memory and reflex. Zero audio distractions—just you and the grid.

🔊 Native Audio (Mac Exclusive) On macOS, the game utilizes Apple's Neural Text-to-Speech engine to provide native pronunciation for every character.
