Add Toki Pona option to language metadata? #1302

Open billsmugs opened 2 years ago

billsmugs commented 2 years ago

There are a few games on the site that can be played (in some cases exclusively) in the constructed language Toki Pona, but currently it's not possible to select it as a language for a game in the metadata section of an upload, or to browse via language code. Toki Pona now has an official ISO 639-3 code ('tok'), so it would be great if it was added to the list - currently a game that's playable in English and Toki Pona either has to leave the language metadata blank or in a misleadingly incomplete state.

ISO 639-3: https://iso639-3.sil.org/code/tok

Examples of games currently using the toki-pona tag: https://itch.io/games/tag-toki-pona

I originally posted this on the forum here: https://itch.io/t/1957384/add-toki-pona-option-to-language-metadata before finding this issue tracker, which I assume is the more official location for feature suggestions? Apologies if this is just creating a duplicate feature request, feel free to delete one!

There's quite a few toki pona games on Itch already. Me and my partner would like to include language support for it in our upcoming games.
