Cool. I guess I am the first to enter.

I repurposed an eLearning Game I created for the 2019 Game Show Challenge because I entered the challenge long after the last person entered.

This is a game called Smooth Operator. It uses background video, a timer, sound fx, glassmorphism, eLearnnig characters, text-to-speech audio, audio recording, updated text boxes, user input and lots of variables to engage the learner in three different levels.

    Awesome game Ron! This was really fun to play. I like the subtle use of looping video in the background.

    Ron, that was fun. I liked the little sound effects on the timer and other elements. It kind of added to the sense of urgency, which is relevant to the position of keeping up with incoming calls.

    Interesting game, Ron! Why do I get a -150 score even though I have followed the correct lines to direct?

      Scoring is based on right answers and wrong answers. You loose some points if you get it wrong. The challenge is to always be in the white box when you type the extension and to always select the right line.
