| I liked this actually, but overall, I think it was more trouble than what it's worth. Maybe if tweaked or done differently, it would be much better. Rather than bash it though, I'll give some constructive criticism. 1. I noticed a few glitches during the tour. As the guy runs through the world, some of the effects lagged, and didn't display the parts of the resume/portfolio that it was suppose to. Once I ran back and forwards through the level multiple times, only then did they displayed correctly. 2. With this being interactive, it kind of distracts from actually looking at the resume itself. I felt myself more concerned with progressing through the world, than actually looking at the qualifications. 3. The controls would have been better if it were <- and -> to move the guy. Pressing up and down is a bit strange, as I think most people prefer using a keyboard over their mouse to go through this. Pros: 1. Very Creative, and cool idea. 2. Refreshing take on a resume/portfolio. 3. Shows off your design and coding skills. 4. It's unique. Cons: 1. Probably not the best way to convey your information to possible employers. 2. Controls are a bit weird. 3. Not all the animations worked off the bat, and were delayed (I had to run through the level multiple times before it worked). Suggestion: I think if you're going to do an interactive resume/portfolio, you should just make it into an actual video game. Simple one level game where the user unlocks parts of your information as they progress through the level. However, I think you should include at the bottom of the page or something, a link to a normally structured resume and portfolio as well, for people that may not have time to do the interactive/game thing. Closing Point: You've got a lot of negative, and positive feedback from your post. Don't let yourself be discouraged, but also be willing to listen and use this feedback to do it better, and adapt/change things where needed. Good luck with your ventures! |
