My games always follow a similar style. Music, sound effects, video clips and the constant irritation of those things being botched by ppt 2007. Using the ppt viewer remedies this problem, but then the numbers won't disappear after selection and the scoreboard will often reset. This is my Maplestory game, as seen by a few people at the Gyeongsangnam-do EPIK teacher's workshop in April. I'd prefer any of the games I upload don't end up on co teacher computers and subsequently pages other than waygook. A lot of time goes into making some of these games. The scoreboard is from a mario bombgame found on waygook.

Game list:
Detective Conan (2 versions)
Naruto
Bleach
Maplestory
Frozen (uploaded somewhere in the 4th grade books)
Exo
Studio Ghibli
one piece
Fairy Tail

They're all made in ppt 2010 or higher. File sizes vary. This maple story game has always been a success during class and all of my games follow a similar number selection lay out of 25 questions. Like some of the greats, Kyle Ludeke and Sprite, please given credit where it is due. Thanks!

I used this in a review lesson a while back so maybe it's preloaded with useful tidbits.

Detective Conan v.2 "Is this your" set up.

ViktorMestrovic · « **Reply #7 on:** April 23, 2015, 10:49:45 AM »

League of Legends BG.. Not a favorite for the girls. Makes the boys happy, for sure.

ViktorMestrovic · « **Reply #8 on:** April 23, 2015, 10:53:51 AM »

Studio Ghibli. This game is well received by boys and girls. My homeroom co teachers have always enjoyed it.

Slide 48 has my name in it. Be sure to replace it with your own or just delete that pop up altogether.

Exo game: By popular girl demand. I'm not sure if EXO is still a big thing to the girls in your classes. They're fading from interest in my elementary schools.

The file size of the naruto and bleach games exceed 60 and 80mb. I'll try to chop out the content and see if I can upload them without compression later.

Frozen: For those who missed it in the grade 4 book abyss.

If a moderator could move my thread into the games section, it may benefit a greater number of people. In hindsight, that would have been a more relevant place to post all of these. >_<

Love the games Stemarty.
One question, the numbers are not disapearing once the question has been answered. This is happening with only your more recent games. Am i doing something wrong? My Ppt skills are far below average or i would just fix it myself.

ViktorMestrovic · « **Reply #13 on:** April 23, 2015, 12:44:34 PM »

These are my games.. not Stemarty's.. -_- it's because they are made in 2013 PPT. If you use the power point "viewer" on a pc... the numbers won't vanish. In PPT 2007 they will vanish, but then you lose the sound.. if your school's computer uses Microsoft power point 2010 or higher, then the gameboard and numbers will function 100% I wish power point wasn't riddled with so many compatibility issues, but there's no fixing it without remaking the entire thing from scratch in the original ppt version (that I've been able to discern through testing) Just saving the file in a format isn't usually enough. >_O

hey,man, my laptop computer is running 2010 verion,the numbers 1,2,3 will disappear when I click the "x" on the bottom left But if i click the "√" on the bottom right. Can you help fix this? And can I delete the scoreboard page and write down the scores on the white board? Will my deleting disfunction any parts in the PPT? Many thanks in advance!

For Jason: the x will always work. You could try saving the game as a pptm format, but tbh with you there's no fixing this issue that I have been able to find. When you click the checkmarks it takes you to a new slide, sometimes a bonus slide or regular points slide which has been animated. This causes versions of ppt to reset other slides, even when they're not set to rewind etc. If you want to skip the sound effects and music, you can download the microsoft ppt viewer for ppt 97-2003. The sound etc. will go away, but the numbers will then disappear as intended and the scoreboard usually works. Mixing sound files or too many subsequent slides tend to cause problems in powerpoint 2010.

These games were made in office professional 2013 and will always run smoothly when played in the version they are originally created in. I just write the score on the whiteboard and the numbers then erase as we go, though students often volunteer to do so. You'd think the ppt viewer would resolve some of these issues, but it doesn't. These same issues plague some of the other bomb games on Waygook, but none that were formatted originally in 97-2003 or 2010. I don't have a school computer so I do my work on my laptop. If you attempt to save these games as 97-2003, it will convert the sound files etc into pictures, thus they no longer play.

I work at 3 different schools each with homeroom computers that either have ppt viewers installed, ppt 2010, or ppt 97. It's frustrating, but more a limitation of the technology being worked with. If I find a new solution that doesn't strip the games of all their desired effects I will post the fix here.

Buddy,thank you very much indeed for your detailed explanation. You really did a great job ever. I'll try to get a 2013 version to run the game. I am really a ppt game buff.

Np. Presently working on a Toriko game in between my other work. Will upload several other games after I finish this distance uni course around the end of May.
