New Code Block Game

It's been a long time since I shared my work, but I'm really pumped up about the potential of the new Code Block in Rise.

I started with a basic idea and then started vibe coding. It's amazing what can be achieved in a short space of time, and have been resisting the temptation to just have fun, and instead focussed on keeping my work learning focussed.

A couple of learnings:

  • The power of the code block will be really unlocked if Articulate can...
    1. Allow us to upload zip folders with images in them. Everything says you can, but I have yet to have a single successful upload.
    2. Provide code/facility to allow a code that can report course completion based on the code i.e. when a game is completed completion can be sent - even better if scores can be included.
    3. When course continuation can be linked to code block completion it enables true gamification.
  • Not being able to include images is a limitation, but not a blocker - you will notice I have included some very rudimentary graphics by encoding the images as base64, however it seems Rise has a limitation of not being able to read base64 strings longer than 500 characters at present. As I suspect will be the case for many others, I, work for a company with very stringent security policies, so we aren't allowed file storage solutions. If there can be a basic image storage allowance for zip code blocks, that changes the game!

 

Would love your feedback you wonderful humans.

    Super cool Graham! Although I needed more processing time to answer the questions. Time limit was short for me. :)
