Ha, ha - very entertaining.
Having grown up in Ghana, the first game I tried was chaskele.
Was expecting a reference to BBC (Bela Boys Company) somewhere. Rather disappointed not to find one.
Never mind any issues about playability etc. Just the fact that AI has allowed someone to create a project that will make many people think a little bit more about Ghana make me happy.
Thanks for creating this and sharing it!!!

I like the music. Nice that you give credit to the artist too.

As a Ghanaian, I think this is a cool concept but needs a lot of improvements to make it work.
Many controls don't work well. Might be better to focus on a few games and make dedicated UIs for them that are adapted to each game.
I guess it is a nice introduction to street games in Ghana though.

I just sit on the home screen, listening to the music and taking in the vibe. I don't even need to play a game. Very pleasant.

I saw Ludo but no games of the mancala family (Wari, Bao, etc).

The idea is good but it looks like a one-shot AI slop. I think you should put much more effort into each game until releasing so many games.
