I recently purchased an Xbox One and decided to recreate the dashboard in Storyline.
The "Game Center" demo allows a user to customize their dashboard, play a fully customizable word search game, check out leaderboards, and gain achievements.
Brilliant. I'm working on a 4-Door concept (Thiagi's 4 Door Model) and this gives me some great inspiration. Tom, as always you produce some great work.
Thanks for the comments. My organization is starting to request different types of training games so I threw together a demo to show how learners can interact and access multiple games within the same course. I plan on developing notifications and achievements to use as motivation to complete each game.
I'm still developing the project so I haven't had the opportunity to track progress. However, you could track learners by using variables and a quiz result:
Create a trigger which updates a variable when the status of all games is completed (e.g., Set "Completed" equal to true when the timeline starts, If "game1" is equal to completed, and "game 2" is equal to completed....).
Create another trigger to direct the learner to a T/F quiz when the timeline starts if the variable "Completed" is equal to true.
Set the correct answer of the T/F quiz to True and modify the button to something like, "Click to Complete this training course".
Track course based on this quiz result slide.
There are probably other ways to go about this but that is all I can think of for now. Feel free to experiment and let me know if you discover anything else!
I believe the images and text in the buttons were added in the states. Double-click the icon, Edit States, and each state was created individually. Very neat!
I first added generic names in the LeaderBoard homepage (e.g., Tom Smith: Score 170, Jane Wilson: Score 150). I then placed the variable %username% over these text boxes in a 'hidden' state which will only display when the user receives a score in a given range. For example, the learners name would become visible and replace Tom Smith's name if his/her variable for "score" is > 170.

Hi Tom,
Thanks for sharing the example here! I especially liked how you could customize your avatar and color.

Very cool, Tom. Tx for sharing.
This is very beautiful.
Thanks for sharing.
Amazing Tom!
I've just purchased an Xbox One too and thought it could be great to develop the dashboard for an eLearning course one day!
And here it is! You made the job! Really thx for sharing!
Nice job and perfect timing. Going to show some people how to use variables and this is a fun example for them to dissect.

Bookmarking this to review later. Dropbox files always get blocked by my employer's web filters but this looks very interesting.
This looks like it would be excellent to use for employee orientation and on-boarding. Even recruitment. Thanks a ton for sharing!

Hi Tom. You are pretty amazing!
Question: How is all the data captured/reported? Are you using Articulate online and quiz results?

Great template, Tom. I just added it to our Storyline downloads gallery: http://community.articulate.com/downloads/p/228699.aspx
Thanks so much for sharing!
Thanks for sharing Tom! This is cool!
How were the buttons (objectives, leader board, etc) created? I see they are rectangles, but how is the symbol and text added?
Mike F,
I believe the images and text in the buttons were added in the states. Double-click the icon, Edit States, and each state was created individually. Very neat!
Ahhh. Very slick. Thanks Raul.
This is very cool. It shows that layers can be created within the slide master which I have never seen done before. Thanks for sharing this!
This a amazing!! Loved all of the interaction and the way you used variables and triggers. Great work Tom.
I'm loving this template! Quick question: how do I go about editing the content that goes inside "Home", "Trending", and "Help"?
Hi Tom, I love this! Quick question. What did you have in mind for the Leaderboard that would compare each person's score?
Hi Ellen,
Thanks for the comment!

Thanks Tom ,,, amazing effort.
