Not sure how far in that is but was playing for a few minutes. I think it is good, neat concept. I think the writing was funny and It fits the theme in my opinion.

I've managed to decode \"SOS\" but the next message is something. Might be I am the only one who has troubles recognising the code but if I am not then there is a reson to think about it. If I understand correctly it just repeats letters of some word and it feels like missing one letter might make the word unrecognisable especially for non-native english speakers. Might it be better to make a special signal on the first letter of the word so the player could know where to start and could count written and unwritten letters?  Overall as Swordfish said it might aswell be a skill issue but in that case I want a record to see what's next in the game!

I don't really know all the morse code by heart, but this game was very fun and a nice way to teach people how to understand morse code, and that mistakes need to be evaded at any cost. People who write morse code fast must have trained a lot, because writing fast without mistakes was really hard.\n\nThe font is good but some text could me mistaken, like O with 0, and S with 5.
