Tip of the Iceberg
Happy New Year! When I take part in a Challenge, I'm often asked, "How long did it take you to build that demo, Jon?" The answer can vary, depending on whether I'm experimenting with a new feature, revisiting an earlier concept, or building something completely new. What you see is just "the tip of the iceberg". The next question is: "Is the juice worth the squeeze?" Maybe. Maybe not. Depends on the project, your audience, and the subject matter. Remember, interaction doesn't always aid knowledge transfer. But by regularly practicing with your tools, you can bring your development time down, and make interactions like this one more viable on a real project.

Spookily Accruate
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
Can We Be Friends?
Hello! Everyone hates icebreakers, right? With that in mind, I've created this mobile-optimized Storyline interaction to help you make new friends. Are we cool? There are 30 different feedback options, which are selected at random by Javascript. If you have any other questions, please ask. We're all friends here!
