Hi Articulate Heroes! I was super excited about this week’s challenge (I love Halloween!), but time got away from me between all the spooky—and not-so-spooky—activities. My original plan was to create a full Halloween Edition of my Jeopardy-style game: new graphics, UI, questions, and sound effects (based on the same build I used for my cooking-themed game). But since the deadline arrived and my idea turned out to be a bit ambitious, I’ve only managed to complete the first category: Creepy Creatures (and it still needs some testing too). Feel free to check it out! I’m hoping to finish the rest of the game and do some proper testing by the end of the week. Happy Halloween, everyone! 🎃 Wings or FlamesReading a Micrometer
My first foray into Rise Coding using ChatGPT and very little knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I am excited with the results so far, but I know I have some refinement to do. Maybe making the overall package smaller. For example, when I upload it into Rise, it takes some time to load, then it works fine. I am not even sure how to upload the file here.49Views1like1CommentThe best weigh to make an espresso
Hello! I like to mimic real-life machinery, dials, switches, and buttons in eLearning where it's appropriate. Sometimes learning by doing can be very literal. But these features can also impact #accessibility. In this week's coffee-themed demo, I have ensured the drag and drop, slider and dial interactions are also accessible from the keyboard. All of the vectors in this week's demo were 'handmade' in PowerPoint and Storyline using the 'merge shapes' feature. Most of my time was spent making sure the interactions perform as intended when the keyboard is used instead of a mouse. But I'm pretty pleased with the overall effect. What do you think? PLAY HERE

I took a dull and uninspiring cover slide and transformed it into an engaging, visually appealing introduction — all in under 2 minutes! Here’s what I did: Used the same background image, but with a fresh visual approach Added simple shapes to create depth and realism Applied a transparency effect on the character to blend it beautifully with the layout This small makeover made a big impact — and fulfilled the challenge requirements with style!

Hello! For this challenge, I reused a character I created way back in 2020, for Challenge #292 (Using Variables). In case you wondered, Zardoz is a cross between Sean Connery and the Zoltan machine from Big. I've upgraded Zardoz with a few tricks I've learned in the meantime, including live polling, a speech animation cycle, and some sneaky Javascript. If Zardoz doesn't successfully read your mind, he can still surprise you with what he does know about you. Does Zardoz know what you're thinking? TRY IT OUT HERE
Double Trouble: Two Arcade Games for the Halloween eLearning Challenge
I couldn’t resist diving head-first into this month’s spooky-themed Articulate eLearning Challenge. What started as one quick idea turned into… well, two complete interactions (and the beginnings of a third). 👻 Project 1 – Wanda the Witch (Rise + HTML Block) I built a Rise experience using a custom HTML block to bring Wanda the Witch to life, think Pac Man but well with a little bit of magic. The code gave me all sorts of grief, but persistence (and a little bit of digital sorcery) finally got it running. Link: Play it here! 🧛 Project 2 – Whack-a-Vamp (Storyline 360) Because one spooky game clearly wasn’t enough, I also created a Whack-a-Mole-inspired mini-game where learners try to “whack” mischievous vampires before time runs out. The challenge? Getting every trigger, variable, and timing loop to play nicely together, but the result was worth every resurrection. Note - this was shared earlier here Link: Play it here! 🏚️ Bonus Idea – Haunted House Induction Somewhere in between, I even started storyboarding an induction for a haunted house attraction. I only made it as far as the eerie intro video before the clock struck midnight, but maybe next year’s challenge will see that one rise from the grave. Sometimes the fun of these eLearning Challenges isn’t about perfection; it’s about experimenting, breaking things, fixing them again, and seeing how far creativity (and caffeine) can take you.

Take on the Haunted Quiz Challenge, where every correct answer opens the door to the next spooky room. But watch out — one wrong answer and the ghosts will wake up! Ready, set, BOO! 🎃 https://www.brilliantteams.com.au/interactive-halloween-quiz-game-elearning-course/Haunted Hayride
Learners hop on a Haunted Hayride and risk their lives at each stop to make it through to the end. This course was created for a sales promotion at my organization; we wanted learners to refresh their consumer and business loan knowledge and pass some fun (and spooky) challenges along the way. I had a lot of fun with the AI tools! https://360.articulate.com/review/content/d98b8200-3c27-478d-bc39-b4b8ce4c051a/review
