H5P Content Types
Game Map
-
As an author you can now set a maximum time limit for the whole game and a warning time for an audio hint. If the user runs out of time: Game over!
-
As an author, you can now place dedicated “finish stages” onto the map. There’s a new button in the editor for that purpose. These “finish stages” work just like the main finish button in the main toolbar, but they inherit a stage’s features as well: they could be locked or hidden until the user reaches them.
-
The main finish button will now pulse gently when the user has collected enough points so he/she could finish safely. Even without placing “finish” stages it will not be a little more obvious how to finish the game.
-
Besides the “finish stage” as a special stage type, authors can also place “extra lives” stages and “extra time” stages onto the map. They do what you think they do :) They allow to add some tactical elements to the game. For instance, gaining access to the extra lives could be bound to solving a difficult question that imposes a risk of losing lives … Oh, and you can assign audio events for gaining a life or extra time.
-
The stage labels will not have a horizontal offset anymore but be placed centered to the stage. Also, they will now always be on top and not hidden under a stage sometimes.
-
In the editor, the buttons will now have a tooltip attached to them explaining their function.
