Storyline Demo: ‘Risk Towers’ – with immersive graphics and sound

Came across this by chance searching for something else.

Excellent work mate! You and your team have nailed the era: excellent choices in style, music, and sound effects. Feels very much like the computer games I used play back in the day.

Question

If I may ask, where did you source the music? Was it from a royalty free site and if so would you let me know which one?

Some Feedback

Repetition

Like some of the other posters have commented some of the content would benefit from more variety. For example, "if you dare" rapidly became stale, and varied sound effects when knocking on doors in the corridor of doom would be nice: perhaps a scream at one door, a creepy child giggling at another?

Clarity

Did not have time to go through all of it and only tried one of the quizzes. Regarding the quiz "Based on what you've just read, which of these scenarios are true?" It was not clear to me that more than one answer was required. I recognize now that "are" is the key verses "is", however, at the time I didn't catch that and only provided one answer. That might be due to the fact that I have dyslexia, however perhaps it wouldn't hurt to make it clearer.

Positioning

In the desk scene I found myself clicking around to see if I'd missed anything: old game habits die a hard death. At first I didn't notice the overhead banner stating the number of objects found. Perhaps the location is an issue as people tend to look to certain parts of the screen instinctively and directly overhead is low on the list as far as I'm aware.

Content

Personally, for me it seems a bit too wordy and not reader friendly. One of the things I'm focusing on is communicating information in images to reduce requiring the need to read long passages of text. However, very challenging to accomplish with things like this I know.

Nonetheless  "Risk Towers" is inspirational and has given me some great ideas for the eOrientation I'm currently working on. I'm taking a gaming approach to its design and your program has stimulated thinking regarding backgrounds, theme, and music.

Thanks for sharing this and I hope my limited feedback will prove useful to you and your team even though this was all back in May.
