  • Uh...Why use PowerPoint?

Why not? It is known that PowerPoint is capable for making games along with adding VBA  to code things! Consider this a challenge to create something out your comfort zone. Here are a couple examples of it's capabilities!

- Hyperlinks - Triggers - Mouse Over Detection
 - VBA/ Macros - Animations -Layers  - Grouping Objects  - Many More

  • I don't have PowerPoint! 

No worries! There are other programs out there that allow you to make and play most PowerPoint files. 

 Here's a list of programs you can download/use:

LibreOffice

PowerPoint Online

Google Slides
