I made a concept of really different type design software

in Type Design Software
I'm looking for few brave man or woman to play with extremely irritating app. 
I made this concept app to proof myself it works or not and after few days of shouting on myself and crying discover it could be very useful (and irritating as much is different from other tools).
Brief explanation is on www.typoland.com
I have no idea what to do with this stuff and how to responsibly share.
Someone interested?
(MacOs only, better new one.)

    I think there's some really, really interesting ideas in here, but I'm afraid the explanations are currently a bit too abstract to be able to evaluate them well. As a result, it just looks really complicated. I'd like to see, for each of those new features, a short explanation of (1) what problem does this solve? (2) how does the feature help me solve it? (3) what do I do as a user with the software to solve it?

    The first one is headed "multiple coordinate systems" but then you don't describe these systems - instead it sounds more like you're talking about smart components. Multidimensional values: for what? Values have targets: What's a "value"? If it's what I think it is, "you can define a point's coordinates either absolutely, or relative to other coordinates in the glyph", that's very powerful. Objects can be shared: what's an "object"? Is it a component?

    I think it just needs to be explained in more type-designery language.

    Tantalizing stuff! 

    I would love to see some screen recordings (perhaps with https://github.com/ishandeveloper/Recordify) so you can show us how you use the application, as what you describe on the web page feels like small glimpses of a bigger picture. 

    (You could record in Polish and allow YouTube AI to transcribe and translate what you say.)

    Ok, try to improve it. Somehow hard — first it's a really hard to explain because it is similar to nothing I know :). 
    Put some screen recordings on page

    I updated little bit a page, and made an ”O”. It's painful, but only for first glyphs. https://typoland.com/Movies/O.mp4
