Flash Game
This is a REALLY rough demo of what can be done with Flash, audio files, and an XML document.
The game itself is very basic - you click on a shape, it plays its corresponding audio clip and displays text that defines the object that has been clicked. You click the shape again and the sound stops and the word goes away.
Note that the answer and sound files have not been hardcoded into the game. These are taken from an XML document that contains the "English" word, the "Translation" word, a title of an audio clip, and an extra text message that could include usage instructions, etc. This means that a person could replace the sound file and the translation text with another sound and word and it would still work. If we had updated graphics, translastions, or a better recording, we could simply swap out the text files and sounds without having to rewrite and upload the whole flash animation. Also, it could be shared with other languages, so there could be an Eyak set of games, an Aleut set of games, etc.
Better animation will be coming now that I have the basic mechanics of the game figured out ... I can definitely do better than a box and circle when I get a bit more time.
