Vocation : a strong feeling of suitability for a particular career or occupation

Ever questioned your career ?

Well, at least asked if this is the right line of work for you ?

Recently I cherished a moment that confirmed that I made a great choice becoming a Computer Engineer :)


So my daughter was having trouble distinguishing small case letter.

And I kept thinking about the best way to help her identify them.

I know she (like any other) kid loves games & stories.

Especially the "Ground is Lava" game :)


I remembered an old game that I loved which helped me improve my typing speed.

Tried to find it, but couldn't. However I distinctly remembered how it worked.


So I created this game where small case letters fall from sky & head to a sea of Lava !

They can only be saved if you type the correct letter :-)


She loved it ! I think this is what "product-market fit" means.

All in all.. she was sitting on my lap, squealing to save the letters by frantically trying to find the upper case letters on my keyboard. Not suspecting I wanted to teach her something. What else does a Dad want :)


Enjoy it here - https://ltmd.co/small-alphabet-falling-game.html

"Escape" key - pauses the game

"Enter" key - toggles lower case to upper case to give them a hint.

I've limited the number of letters to 5 to not overwhelm the little brains.

Disclaimer : My JavaScript is rusty, hence if the game glitches, just refresh the page.
