Design Your Own Snow Globe For the Holidays

At this time of year I'm always working on my year-end holiday story/message for colleagues and clients, and by chance, it included variables. This demo has three number variables and button sets that customize the end result based on your choices. You can choose between 15 characters, 15 settings and 10 songs. If I remember my sixth grade math, thats 2,250 different combinations. Please let me know if you encounter any glitches in your choices. I didn't check all 2,250 combos.

- ElishaGraham10 months agoCommunity MemberI love the snow globe!
I wonder if you could add a snippet of the songs when you get to that section?
Also, my son clicked my mouse and reported some comments! Ooooopsie I do apologise, I haven't reported anything!
Working from home shenanigans - NicoleBoswell-d10 months agoCommunity MemberMy snow globe was perfect! Very very cute.
- LauraHansen-06510 months agoCommunity MemberI LOVE this! I did the penguins with the ski lift and marshmallow world with no issues. So cute. Is the snow effect something you made in storyline or did you make all the graphics with a different platform?
- JodiSansone10 months agoCommunity MemberHi Laura. Who doesn't love penguins? I loaded the story file if you want to see how the snow works. It's just a simple, semi-transparent picture that moves along a motion path and then starts over. All the visuals are vector graphics that I have in my library. I didn't make them myself--I just edited them to match the concept.
- LauraHansen-06510 months agoCommunity Memberthank you Jodi! This is helpful to "see in action". I have used a similar semi-transparent effect to create a lightning effect in storyline. I sometimes forget we can use a set of triggers now to have the effect go on forever!
