This was an idea I came up with and shared with my $5+ backers on Patreon a
couple months ago. If you would like to see such behind-the-scenes details,

So what is Tangomon? Tangomon is an educational monster battling game, in the
same sort of vain as Pokemon. It was designed with vocabulary in mind, but
can be theoretically used for all kinds of learning. Your monsters, known as
tangomon, attack with words, known as tangojis. When you have completely
memorized a tangoji, you can convert it into a tangokan, which you can use to
convince other tangomon to join your team. Your goal is simple: collect them
all! Of course, I am personally a player, of course, which is why I developed
it; I use Tangomon to study Japanese vocabulary and practice reading kanji.
A short video showing some Tangomon gameplay can be found here:
