Hello, I'm not able to play TWA. I'm stuck on the "Login or create an account" popup, and when I press any button, it shows a blue outline but doesn't redirect me anywhere. Yyeeetlol ( talk) 14:20, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

Just a small grammar fix for admins to do. Pinging User:Pppery because you added the notice. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 02:48, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
Not sure if this is happening with other people, but the Blue Start This Adventure button is acting weirdly for me. Not every part of the button is working. The left part of the button is clickable while the right part isn't.-- Mrb Rafi ( talk) 13:11, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
I've mostly finished a rewrite of the Wikipedia adventure to fix a bunch of bugs. Major changes include:
Code is at MediaWiki:Guidedtour-tour-twa1sandbox.js through MediaWiki:Guidedtour-tour-twa7sandbox.js, but unfortunately it's difficult to test since internal links and such hardcode the name of the tour. What I did was add logic at User:Pppery (alt)/common.js to auto-load the sandbox version, but that workaround itself sometimes causes stray guiders to appear that shouldn't.
A few things are dependent on upstream patches to the GuidedTour code (i.e the "I'm logged in" screen should be auto-skipped but isn't pending gerrit:1031109, it generates a redundant back button for most steps pending gerrit:1031113, etc.), so it isn't ready to be deployed for a week or two.
It's also a known issue that when using VisualEditor the boxes occasionally appear in awkward places - VisualEditor's Javascript scrolling and GuidedTour don't always mix perfectly. I tried to put it in a reasonable place all the time, but I may have missed some. * Pppery * it has begun... 03:30, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
I liked how TWA covered most of Wikipedia's main points like NPOV and BEBOLD. It's a pretty simple tutorial for new editors.
Many of the images I had to add to the Earth article didn't seem like images that would be on such an article on the real Wikipedia. This could be misleading. The whole game was also glitchy (for example, on many pages the "talk" "page history" etc. buttons were invisible, so I had to randomly click near the top to access it. Also, I know your progress "saves" after each "level" but I forgot what level I was on so had to start near the beginning.
You couldn't actually analyze the citations and had to guess their reliability by their titles. Also, the game provided the actual citation for you. I wanted to learn how to do that formatting myself.
The cool "space" design on every page, since it feels different than real Wikipedia.
It's a nice game. Thanks for making it. It's very glitchy, though. There were a few grammar errors.

...The UI
...More visual
...Nothing
...Excellent way to start
