Wow, this end result is actually really cool! Those were some really creative uses of those tools, never thought about how you could use video for more immersive effects!
Brilliant! Years ago I made a Family Feud game manager in PPT. The cool thing was using VBA to read the game definition file for the match, which made it easy to configure and use over and over again without modifying any slides. Soooooo ... you could add in a VBA initialization routine to access different background videos, songs, and logo spawning sequences and you'd have a tidy little reusable engine :)
Amazing. As a person that used to make fanart comics in Powerpoint, I highly enjoyed seeing the more advanced things you can do in it! ;p 10/10 will watch this video again.
Proud to be here before you upcoming millions of subscribers 🔥 you are doing a crazy work on both video games, video storytelling and montage. It's such a good moments to watch your videos man !
Yeah, I always made Point and Click Escape Rooms and even did a Five Nights at Freddy´s in PowerPoint, which was actually very good. There were hidden timers, that changed "buttons" without the player noticing, so it was some sort of random. Like when you click on something "in game", every second something different happened. And lots friends loved it! XD
I like the way you describe things- random comment but I found myself being able to comprehend what you were saying very easily! Very entertaining video
did you know that you are able to import 3d objects into powerpoint and animate them like any other object with animations. Powerpoint has a bunch of free assets that you can use
You damn cray cray and I love it! Thank you for this glorious creation! Now I have no excuses and can only be shamed for not doing something for myself.
Wow! The game at 2:34 looks really cool! I just got done playing it and it's so good! Thank you for showing me it. I highly recommend everyone plays it.
Have you heard of Storyline 360? It's like a glorified version of PowerPoint, and we genuinely make some of our games in it where I work. It's horrible. We've managed to make entire point-and-click adventure games in it. It's built for quizzes. Why do we use it. Also i still cant get over the quality of your videos, you are SMASHING it
This is insane! I can barely make this is any other game engine, let alone powerpoint! I can't believe you aren't at 50k yet, you make content like a youtuber with millions of subs. Well done!
this is such an excellent sequel to that random video i watched years ago about programming in powerpoint which was mostly a joke but also quite fleshed out, glad to see theres a whole community about it now
This is absolutely awesome, but if you added a rectangle so that people who are playing know when to hit you could maybe have the inside of the rectangle a neon green color and the outside's orange or red love to hear what you think about this
Should've used a sequential trigger, like splitting the blocks into two (or even 4 or 8) triggers, to detect swiping motion and direction, and ensure only cutting blocks in the correct direction counts.
This is totally fantastic "hack" - but arguably a lot more work than using a real game engine because of the painstaking placement and animation of each target by hand. Any decent 2d engine would allow the same basic method of using pre-rendered backgrounds to make it look pretty but would allow automating of the moving targets so that you could write the whole thing in an afternoon. Or multiple days if you are learning the tool for the first time (but then you have new skills to use for your next game, so... that's still a win). Nonetheless it's really cool to see how far you pushed powerpoint.
theres a roblox game that started off as a beat saber clone that has VERY similar gameplay to this. the main gameplay difference is that its a 3x3 square instead of 2x2
Hello i have made powerpoint games in the past and there is this glitch that if you dont move the mouse at all it doesnt detect the hover over collisions triggers but i havent seen anyone make a rythm game like this
Lol! Dude, every time I saw the guy who kept showing up with the afro, white shirt, black tie, black pants (like at 1:11), for the entire first 7 minutes or so of this video, I legitimately thought it was just some random guy from a stock video website. 🤣 It wasn't until about 7:36 when you crouched behind the projector that I realized it was just you, the content creator, filming himself. 😆 Idk if that was intentional or not, but it blew my mind. I need to check out more of your content
Wow, this end result is actually really cool! Those were some really creative uses of those tools, never thought about how you could use video for more immersive effects!
Thanks Banana! Your project was a big inspiration!
Hello
hello banana man
I am a huge fan of you DevBanna and I am also a huge fan of you to Emeral
hey dev banana I am a big fan notice me please
OK, this is the first Im hearing about using PPT to make games and now I have a rabbit hole to go down, thanks!
haha, you're welcome!
Bro I love this video
Wait until you hear about powerpoint operating systems. The lore is incredibly deep but most of it is unfortunately gone

This should be top
You could've just made this a game and called it a day, but you went above and beyond with the whole VR headset thing!
haha, it's always nice when you drop by, Seegol!
It's not really above and beyond
It’s not VR just because you use Virtual Desktop… this video is clickbait.
@@emeralgamedevSorry but I gotta dislike man
@@SimoneBellomonteIt's still way more immersive than a fucking projector and a remote
Someone give this man a team and a studio please!
That's hilarious, I've seen some power point games before but this is truly the pinnacle. Nice work!
Thanks, xen! We out here trying to push the boundaries of PP!
Cool cool stuff! Powerpoint games are always amazing to me, I could barely make a slideshow with it. lol
Thanks, Wesley! Powerpoint definitely has its quirks haha
I've not a clue as to why I am subscribed to you, but boy howdy am I glad I am
I'm glad you are too, gungle!
Amazing. As a person that used to make fanart comics in Powerpoint, I highly enjoyed seeing the more advanced things you can do in it! ;p 10/10 will watch this video again.
This is pure genius. I am so impressed I am speechless. All the tricks you use and different technologies, bravo 🎉
I'm glad to find a video like this that actually doesn't lie about what they achieve. Gg my man's
Proud to be here before you upcoming millions of subscribers 🔥 you are doing a crazy work on both video games, video storytelling and montage. It's such a good moments to watch your videos man !
You know what, that's really nice of you to say, BlackRec! Imma tape this comment to my wall.
Haha well if its a good motivation booster every time you see it so go for it haha. Hope to see it somewhere in your next video 😏😂
TH-cam was fast to recommend me this
fr
Same
This is awesome. I used to work in the DoD and the people there would be in awe of your skill with their favorite program
This is amazing!!! It actually looks really good!!!! Well done, Sir. I doff my cap to thee.
Dude this is lit. When I saw the thumbnail I was expecting something barely playable but this genuinely looks like a decent VR game. Nice job

This is art! A couple of months ago I created a Google slides game and it's so cool see that there's a much larger community than I ever thought!
8:35 on your oculus quest, that a option called "oculus link" that can you let access your pc (whit cable or not) and this is FREE.
Great video btw !
Thanks, Terrafin! Sometimes the best solution is right under your nose!
I love how crazy your ideas are, and how you end up making them working
I like the way you describe things- random comment but I found myself being able to comprehend what you were saying very easily! Very entertaining video
did you know that you are able to import 3d objects into powerpoint and animate them like any other object with animations. Powerpoint has a bunch of free assets that you can use
I was vaguely aware of it, maybe I could do some more investigating!
Freaking bravo. Any other channel I would've called that video title clickbait. 10/10
Shucks, thanks Stimpicus. I'm glad I was able to deliver!
Fun Fact: The logos in Point Saber are just apart of the video
Loved this video! I havent heard of this before and it looks cool👌
Underrated channel!!! You sir, are a genius !
You damn cray cray and I love it! Thank you for this glorious creation! Now I have no excuses and can only be shamed for not doing something for myself.

Waiting for a doom port for PowerPoint that I can run at work lmao
How does this channel only have 60K subs??? I never imagined making a VR game with ppt was possible. You've earned a subscription.
the name pointsaber fits because you're basically pointing at notes and not slashing them 🤣
good work~!

Also i still cant get over the quality of your videos, you are SMASHING it
I haven't heard of it but it sounds cool! Maybe I'll try it for an upcoming vid. And I'm glad you enjoy the silly content!
Powerpoint was my first game engine and Beat Saber is one of my favorite games.
This is the version of nerd I love the most. Good job.
Pretty cool man! Love this stuff 🔥
Ayyyee, thanks! You're an inspiration!
Amazing, Creativity Never overstay its Welcome, great video
Aww, thanks Eddie. I appreciate that!
This just shows that anyone with a computer can make a game (or sometimes without a computer!)
AS DUSK FALLS, the real PowerPoint game.
Emeral this is awesome!
Thank you, Leah!
Who knew powerpoint could do this? Now I'm waiting on a game made with excel! ;D
Actually someone made Doom in Excel and even some ray-tracing :D
This is insane! I can barely make this is any other game engine, let alone powerpoint! I can't believe you aren't at 50k yet, you make content like a youtuber with millions of subs. Well done!

Nice storytelling through the research section. You didn’t even work on your own project for 5 minutes of the video but you kept audiences interested.
I've been watching your videos since you hit 1.5k and I'm glad to see how fast your channel is growing. Keep it up! 😊
Thanks Cyrus, I appreciate that!
@@emeralgamedev :-)
holy gaming development! another good content!
edit : i watched the whole video this is superb quality game & content
You can also program in powerpoint using the compiler
This is absolutely awesome, but if you added a rectangle so that people who are playing know when to hit you could maybe have the inside of the rectangle a neon green color and the outside's orange or red love to hear what you think about this
that’s really cool!
I enjoyed watching this video!
now thats a real slide show
Hey mom could i get beat saber?
No we have beat saber at home
Beat Saber at home:
Nice Beat, Nice PowerPoint. I need to do this for my next homework
Well done! Huge points for creativity.
Jeez, I came here because I was interested, I've been waiting for this for a long time, the team wanted to make this type of game too lol
This is a reminder that ppt is Turing complete, you can program anything in ppt
Should've used a sequential trigger, like splitting the blocks into two (or even 4 or 8) triggers, to detect swiping motion and direction, and ensure only cutting blocks in the correct direction counts.
that was so clever! awesome work dude
No idea why this video got recommended to me but I’m here for it! Nice work man
PowerPoint also supports VBA code, maybe something interesting could be done with that?

Bro Fr did this, that’s actually lit 🔥
Omg -- you're even using one of those ppt clickers that I also hate. 😄
Thanks for the video!!!
Yes finally someone else who sees the true potential in PowerPoint.
Oh my goodness. This is amazing! So clever.
calling gamemaker an unpopular niche engine is so funny
This is actually very ingenious
I loved loved loved this idea!!! Make another PowerPoint game!
Emeral: You must download a Virtual Desktop app to control your desktop.
Oculus Rift S: Am I a joke to you?
Fantastic video, clever and educational! Please keep doing weird stuff!
thank ya, I'll try my best!
Fun fact gorilla tag has more downloads than beat saber making it more iconic 🤦♂️
i love this vid
Getting it going on the VR headset really took this project to the next level
amazing work
Thanks, low!
Really amazing video, thank you!
no way you did this man big respect
I made a Super Mario clone in PPT in 2005, I still have it and it still works.
theres a roblox game that started off as a beat saber clone that has VERY similar gameplay to this. the main gameplay difference is that its a 3x3 square instead of 2x2
this is the most mind blowing thing for me today thank you for the video
Hello i have made powerpoint games in the past and there is this glitch that if you dont move the mouse at all it doesnt detect the hover over collisions triggers but i havent seen anyone make a rythm game like this
I fully expected you to tape that air mouse controller to the headset xD
New emeral upload lets go!
Darth Vader: Impressive verry impressive
I'm glad I didn't skip this video for the 5th time in my recommendation list.
This is amazing! good job lol
If I had PPT like this when I was in corp, maybe I'd still be working there. Nah.
Thanks for the video!
The music choice was on point
I used to make games in PowerPoint and command prompt in school when I'd get bored
Another banger vid brother.
Thanks, Pro. Glad you keep on liking them!
recreating a game in powerpoint is just like making a game and playing it cuz your computer is a potato
Your pretty cool and here we go on the cardboard
Desmos calculator is fun to code on, you should try it, someone even made a calculator in desmos calculator!
Rush e is going to be near impossible to play lol
Good content
I refer to Dr Ian Malcom: “Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.”
Lol
Powerpoint was my first game engine as a
This is ingenious at sooo. many levels,,,,
i remember i was bored in class so i made a point and click escape the room game who knew there was a whole community for this
You could also make just dance by just making the shape more strict and moving them so that it is easiest to dance with the person in the video
Lol! Dude, every time I saw the guy who kept showing up with the afro, white shirt, black tie, black pants (like at 1:11), for the entire first 7 minutes or so of this video, I legitimately thought it was just some random guy from a stock video website. 🤣

Did anyone else have a sudden flashback to another game featuring a maze design @ 3:03 with the red cube and a black BG?
It looks really good 👍
