What is player input?

Why is it important for apps and games? 

Player input allows players to make meaningful choices in videogames

Player choices can open up entirely new ways to play the game, depending on what the player picks

What games have you played that allowed you to make a choice?

Quiz Panels allow us to test the player

How do we do use them in CoSpaces?

Let's log into CoSpaces

Visit www.cospaces.io

First, we need a quiz host

We will program this NPC to ask the questions when they are clicked

Let's call them Quiz Master for now

Next, look under the "Actions" tab for the Quiz Block panel

The first field is where our quiz questions will go

Let's write our first question!

The next few fields are for the answers

Make sure you write one correct answer, and a few incorrect answers

To add more answers, use this button:

Make a question with one correct answer, and three incorrect ones

Let's add a couple more questions

Task
☐Create a quiz with 3-5 questions. Each should have 1 correct and 1 incorrect answer

10 min

Create Goals

☑Create a short quiz with correct and incorrect answer choices

☐Change game outcome based on the player's choice

Next, we will code how the game reacts to different answer choices

First, set your correct answer

This will allow us to program the game to respond to correct and incorrect choices

Set your outcomes

CoSpaces allows us to program the game to react to a correct answer, and an incorrect one

Bonus: Try adding animations when correct and incorrect!

Task
Finish the your quiz by programming in the correct answers, and how the game reacts to them

15 min

Test your game!

Place it into the Cardboard and let someone else try it
