New Feature: Leveling System

We’ve added a new feature to Read the Kanji: A Leveling System.

Now your experience finally adds up. With every correct answer you earn points (wrong answers do not count against you), and as you earn more points you level up! It’s all contained neatly in your Session Bar at the bottom left corner of the quiz.

Let me break down the Session Bar.

Your Details

Your avatar (which can be changed at gravatar.com) and email are displayed. Only you can see your session bar; your email address is not shared with other users.

Progress Bar

Your current level is displayed to the left of the Progress Bar. This represents the range of experience you have earned so far.

The Progress Bar itself will fill up as you earn points by answering words correctly. You’ll see how many points you earn float up from the Progress Bar. A word’s experience value decreases slightly each time you get it correct, encouraging you to learn new (and perhaps more challenging decks) as you master your current decks.

To the right of the Progress Bar is the next level you’ll achieve when your Progress Bar fills up all the way.

Session Stats

Your Session Stats have been around for awhile, so there’s nothing new here. The total words seen, total correct answers, total incorrect answers, and your success ratio are displayed. You can reset your “session” with the Reset Button at the end of this Session Bar.

We’ve included this leveling system to be used to enrich upcoming features we have planned; but for now, we hope it serves as a fun, simple addition that helps you make more sense of your progress while making Read the Kanji even more enjoyable to use.
