CMinds game #372

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Firefox 23.0.1 on Mac

The CMinds game does not start. It loads, but only the initial page is visible. 

Also, the menu says  "Create New Forum".

Menu corrected.  The game itself seems fine, it's working exactly as it always 
did.  I'm using Flash Player 11.2 - could you check your version if problem 
persists?

It is confusing that there is no hand showing that one has to click to start 
the game. Perhaps that can be added?

I am not sure about this. In this case awarenet only serves the game and 
displays it directly as it is. So there is not much we can do here. I must say 
I find it hard to figure out how to play the game just having looked at it for 
a few seconds.

What we could do is to add a user's guide explaining the first simple steps of 
what to do and how to play the game?

I wrote a short introduction for CMinds and explained the meanings of the 
buttons on the right site.

"Eight different math and programming games are waiting for you. Can you think 
logically? Do you want to learn it? Then let’s get started!

After the game has successfully loaded, click somewhere on the screen to enter 
the main menu."

What do you think?

Yes, this is simple and hopefully easy to understand. Thank you. 

Michael, can you integrate this into awarenet somehow?

I have integrated introduction text and Buttons.jpg image into cMinds. Please 
have a look and let me know if it is okay like that. 

I tried many different locations where to put the Buttons.jpg image, decided on 
the current location because like that you have the explanation right where you 
need it.

This is just what I imagined. Thank you. It can also be updated on awarenet, 
please.

It would be interesting to find out now, if the users actually see the 
explanation of the buttons, but this can only be tested live, I suppose. - 
Antje and Rieke, would you go back to Vongai perhaps and ask her if this kind 
of solution/introduction is enough help, of if she would recommend to place the 
picture somewhere else, of if one needs an additional sentence on the previous 
page that draws attention to the explanation, e.g. something like "Use the 
buttons in the top right corner to play the game or get further information."

What do you think? Would that explanation be enough for yourselves? :-)

Perhaps it would be good to place the Buttons.jpg with the explanation next to 
the text on the front page. So you make sure that no one misses it. What do you 
think?

Yes, I like the idea. In this case, the text could say: "Once the game has 
started, use these buttons in the top right corner to play the game or get 
further information."

This can be additionally to what/where Michael has placed the picture. 
Repetition always helps.. ;-)

I integrated text and Buttons.jpg into summary of cMinds game. It is uploaded 
on Mothsorchid. 

Please let me know if it is okay like that and can be uploaded to awarenet.eu.

I thinks it looks good like that and makes sense. Thank you.
