Virtual Tour as an Escape Game

Feature requests

Hi,

I was thinking that adding to the great new content type "Virtual Tour (360)" these features:

1)to be able to turn the transparency of the icons (arrows, questions, pictures, etc.) up to 100%

2)to ask "Fill in the Blanks Questions" (aside of the multiple choice)

3)to change the orientation of the arrows (in order to make them pointing in the right spatial direction on the picture- to the left, to the right, "back" pointing to self)

4) and to create a dependency between icons (an icon shows up only in case of a right answer to an another question)

would turn this content in a terrific tool to easely create pedagogical online escape games, with a "find hidden object" feel (because of the icons made invisible to the user: you have to find some hidden riddles), and some codes to fill in (codes resulting of some pedagogic work by the students).

Keep good working,

D.BODIN

Hi D.BODIN,

Thank you for contributing your ideas on how to make H5P better! We’re now working on something called the H5P supporter program allowing the H5P community to vote for and fund the top voted H5P features. Also there are developers in the community who every now and then works on a feature they find interesting or useful.

Hi,

Ok.

Thanks for your answer: with the current "Escape Game" trend in education I hope these four little tweaks to easely convert the "Virtual Tour" activity into a virtual escape room will gain some votes !

Best regards,

D.BODIN

As proposed in the main text, I would really appreciate these features that are already proposed by the site Genially to create escape rooms.

Thank you.

I can't agree more on this. The possibility to use H5P as an escape game creator would mean a great deal for many instructionnal designers. I am currently creating an escape game about FOSS to promote FOSS in education, but I can't find an alternative to Genially or Articulate that fits the bill. H5P has to be the contender on this topic, as it already has most of what's needed, especially branching scenarios and Virtual tours.

How do i get the latest v0.6.0 version of this? And do you know if they will officially release this in the near future? It is one of the best and fun h5p there is. I'm kinda sad that it is not completely yours, because you would made it even more amazing just like you do with your h5p gamemap content. :D

Hi finn!

I don't think there's a pre-built version around, you'd have to do that yourself using the source code on github.

NDLA is going to put everything on display at https://explore.ndla.no/ and also wants to bring the content type to the H5P Content Type Hub, but the latter requires H5P Group to take action, of course.

Best,
Oliver

Thank you for your response. I know that i can download it from github. That is where NDLA links goes to. But when i download it i cant upload (wordpress) it. Is there a tutorial how to turn it to a .h5p file?
