It was a one by one challenge when completed players knew and moved one to the next one. They could always check the summary of compelted actionos to remind thesmelves what they had learnt.
Hints and feedback were tested to check it was enough with the Research Lab, we didn't want to overdue or lack of guidance.
Fail state behavior (“rebooting the flow”) as teachable recovery, not punishment to help players truly learn harder actions based on sounds.

We avoided creating new signs and feedback to reuse the ones in game to avoid players getting used to a different language, which created some issues as some pings and level design elements were not clear enough some times.
From our continuous tests we saw how the comms display states adapted very well to each player's level of knowledge as only players who needed more stopped to watch additional media. It also provided great feedback on what was done correctly or what needed to be repeated. Moreover, it was a great tool to teach conceptual knowledge and key motor skills related inputs.
