I Made a Game in Powerpoint
Can you make a video game in Microsoft Powerpoint? I put that question to the test by challenging my friend to see who can make the best Powerpoint game in one hour!

I'm no game dev, but I have dabbled into making interactive PowerPoint presentations before. There are more things someone could do if they ever approach creating games in PPT. Triggers and Actions are a huge thing, but I hope using Macros and VBA can also be explored in the future. Good video! Glad to see you two having fun with PPT.

@microdavid7098 Жыл бұрын

vba is pretty fun. I could see it being a huge thing in making powerpoint games. Though I think the idea of a powerpoint game is to make it simple. VBA and macros depending on the version could make a powerpoint game unplayable. I remember trying to make a microsoft word game with vba for ludum dare with ms word 2010 and it was unplayable because people using more modern and supported versions had problems; maybe it was the settings or the syntax- I wasn't too sure

As a kid, I made an entire "impossible quiz" type game way back when that game was still popular. I used hyperlinks and buttons to do this. I unfortunately lost the file 9 years ago, and I don't have it anymore but I basically copied a ton of mechanics and levels from that game and put it into Microsoft PowerPoint as a game that literally only me and my friends would play. It was a ton of fun. Man, I'm honestly impressed at how motivated kid me was to create a 50 level quiz game on a PPT.

Reminds me of the "Escape The Powerpoint of Doom" games I made in highschool. You can make full blown boss battles, if you spend enough time on it, and have rather complex puzzles, due to the way you can cause different animations to activate, by clicking on a piece of clip art, and just keep all unused assets off screen, until you need them, and use animation paths to bring them onto the slide.

Making silly things in Powerpoint was always great fun, especially as ways you can play games with your friends by circumventing the school computer restrictions with powerpoint. But if you're new to coding and decide to do this, for the love of God try some actual programming languages too, or else you can get stuck making these things for a very long time
