Is "hieroglyphic" different in Brazil?
To be fair I forgot the name even in PT-BR lol

It is close enough "Hieróglifo"... not that common here.

I'm open to more conversations, but I just want to keep only three threads stickied at a time.

The picture reminds me a lot of the symbols you'd see when you're running around in the Animus loading screen in Assassins Creed.

It looks really cool, can't wait to see them in the game.

I'm curious if the language is phonetic or pictorial

judging from the picture I'd say leaning more phonetic, but with subtle pictorial cues that can make a difference in how something is interpreted

Interesting observations.

Fun thing happened just about a week ago.

I lost the entire language!!! :(











Yup. Have no fear though. I'm rebuilding it and it's better than ever. One of the things I finished yesterday is a "written text generator." I'm still a ways off from getting the alien "dictionary" remade so here is the written text generator producing a random result.




I'm also free to answer some basic questions about the language if you have any.
