Project file for my version of the Hangman game.
This is the second part in this Hangman series.
Rather than type up all of the code and explain it in text, I thought I would record it.
For those of you who are truly interested – you can watch both videos for a little over 30 minutes of explanation of the game creation. One video for each slide.
For those who really don’t care about the explanations and just want to use the game – OK fine – I offer two things then.
- You can modify the onEnter Actions of slide 1 – which is JavaScript – if you follow the formatting carefully. This is where you can enter several default – or persistent words.
- You can modify the code – which is JavaScript – on the Validate button action. You should be able to find the password there. Change what you find between the two sets of double quotes for the variable myPass and make it your own.
This was created with Captivate 2019 version 11.5.0.476 so my apologies to those with older versions.
I give this freely to you to use at your discretion – and – while not required, I would certainly appreciate a shout out in the comments with a like if you download and plan to use it.

Done my first example project to my style with success !… (And learn a bit more of Javascript in Captivate by the way !…). Big thanks again !… Your next challenge : a memory game ???… 😉
I started toying with the idea of a Memory style game. I currently have a total of 36 tiles to flip (18 pairs), and the ability to scramble the tiles to create a new game using the same thing on the flip side of the tiles.
Matched sets will fade away and increment a point while mismatches will flip back over and count against you. The goal would be to end up with the highest positive score.
I may rethink the scoring but that is what it is looking like at the moment.
In the end – one should only have to swap out the flip states of each tile to create a totally different game.
…
Great !!!… I hope we could change easily the number of tiles to make progressive versions of the game ?… The Captivate widget was not very good as the tiles were not fully mixed (always one above and one down)…

Maybe you could insert a timing system ?
The flip system could be very nice also to make exercises like translation… discover results of calculations… I remember having seen a video from Paul Wilson with such a flipping system which was nice !…
Happy Captivate !…

Hello Greg !… I try to answer you here two days ago… But as I put links in the answer, it doesn’t appear yet… So I try to contact you by private message on the Captivate Forum… (New feature ?)…
Please tell me if you read it !… 😉
Got it.
I sure hope someone is working to fix the community experience.
It does not make sense that one should have to switch to a different community in order to communicate with others in the same community.
I think it’s a big struggle having changed these platforms (here and the forums) and they are still at it, no doubt !… I just sent you another private message to give you the link of the hangmen I done with your awesome resources !… 😉
I was waiting for it as you know already !… I download the project and will use (and abuse) it !!!… Big thanks for the cptx !!!… I’m in other projects now but I will come back here to show you my examples…
