I really like the landing page!

Thank you!

I built it with Kirby:

– super easy, really great to customize!

(And multi-language!)

This is cool. Just a tip, your mobile site’s overflow is messed up, so you can scroll way off site to the right.

Ahhh, stupid me. I made a last minute change with the newsletter field, and that had a fixed width. Should be better now. :-)

Doesn't come up for me, timed out

well, it's loading now but the document is taking around 10s to load.

Let's hope that server will not collapse under today's attention overload ;)

Awesome :D we played through these a couple of years ago and I’ve been checking in every so often for an update.

I have missions 6-9 on my desk, the audio is recorded, and finally, our daughter gives us some time to launch the update in the next weeks ;)

Lovely project - but I hate the printing paper bit. Not only it's creating rubbish, I don't even own a printer, so I would need to go to the local library to print a new mission.

I take the alternate view. Tangible stuff is great and I like having something to toss on the kitchen table for the family to work through.

And a little rubbish is not a problem. Paper does sequester CO2 afterall.
