Text entry game
I had an enquiry from a client this week for a game they were trying to build and didn't know how. I gave them a high level overview of how to build it.
But the idea wouldn't leave my head, so I took some time out yesterday to build it.
Let me know what you think.

I will share the file when I sort a few things out, I really want to get the Enter Key to submit.
What a lovely design and concept! I would love to know how it's done and it would be great if you can tell me about the graphic resources too.
I also had a project where I needed the enter key to replicate the function of a submit button. I copied and pasted the triggers and changed the prefix to "When the user presses ENTER after clicking on this slide" and that resolved the issue.
Thanks James, with a text entry field you would need to remove the line return that is created created when you press the enter key and also lose focus on the text entry field, in this case I use a couple of lines of javascript to do both
Very Sweet!
Hi,
I've been tasked with developing a Human Trafficking course. Any ideas on how to get started I would appreciate.
Thank you,
Gina
Great game, I really enjoyed it. It does not take space after the correct answer though. And Apple is in the image but It was not listed as correct answer.
Phil,
Great looking design :-) I see you got the enter key to work and that you got rid of the red squiggles after deleting the typo, can you share this file as i have been trying for some time to fix these issues?
Hi Darren, this is on my list of things to sort out, I used some javascript for the enter solution.
I will tidy the file this week and post it here.
Look forward to seeing the java script :-) not found this solution anywhere
Hello, this is a great game. Do you know when you would be sharing the source file. I have some ideas on how this could be used to create other variations. Thank you in advance
Not 100% sure hopefully this week. I have not had anytime yet to clean it up and get rid of any odd bits.
Love it. This would have so many applications in our training! Can;t wait to see the source file :)
Having english as a third language makes it difficult when spelling is crucial.
Watermelon? Water melon? Melon? They all come out with a lost life... Pitaya ... has loads of other "calling names" etc.
So I feel I'm missing out on the good stuff. Like the finale :)
But it looks great :D
I like that you get the red swiggly line under misspelled words, but it would be even better if you could click on misspelled words and they would give you the correct spelling like spellcheck in MS Word.
Sorry, just seeing your fuzzy text entry logic here https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/halloween-text-entry-game#reply-720672
