Top Down Office Escape Arcade Game
I have created a fire safety office top-down game, the game allows you to put out fires using fire extinguishers, heal using first aid kits and evacuate burning offices. there are three levels with this game, and I am very proud with how it comes up. I'm sharing this project so that everyone realises the true capabilities of Storyline 360.
Everything that I had to build to make the game function:
- Created custom office layout
- Created custom legend of all safety symbols
- Sourced icons and safety symbols
- Writin custom text for game
- Created custom transitions
- Created and written custom instructions for user
- Sourced and created custom keyboard key icons
- Created interactive movement so when user cliks WASD they move either up, down, left or right
- Created custom character with different angles depending on the key the user presses
- Placed safety symbols around levels.
- Created custom and fully working healthbar so when character interacts with fire it goes down.
- Created custom layers for when healthbar reachs 0 to try again,
- With safety symbols such as first aid kit and fire extinguisher, created it so they can be picked up and used.
- Created working fire extinguisher that puts out fires
- Created working first aid kit to recover fire damage health.
- Created custom UI icons to show when user picks up items.
- Created custom Layers for when user completes level by either escaping out of fire exits or extinguishing fires.
- Created custom level counter so text goes from level 1,2 to 3 automatically
- Created custom layout so if user needs too see instructions again they can view whenever.
- Sourced custom sound effects for picking up items, using items, level completion, level fail.
- Created 3 different custom levels.
- Created last level so that both fires have to be placed out before escaping
- Created custom flashing buttons to entice user to press.
This game took 21 hours to make, I hope you enjoy and if you have any questions feel free to reach out :)

HarryLawrence​ , you are truly awesome for this share. Not only are you showing us such an interesting result, but really letting us in on your process—I particularly appreciate the note about how long this took to make, that's always amazing context to understand.
One question I always have for gamified examples like this—where does an example like this fit into your overall learning journey? How do you imagine others might be able to customize this for different subject matter?- HarryLawrenceCommunity Member
I believe this game can work with multiple different subjects, the basis is there for a top down game, the character can collect items around different scenarios beside an office, it can similate day to day office life, safety based training also, as long as there's imagination this can be changed into endless possibilities.
Love this idea! Really thrilled you shared, and excited to see whatever it is you're working on next :)
