Sidequest

About Sidequest

Sidequest is a portfolio that visitors walk through. As they scroll, your character walks through five chapters, Hello, Skills, Work, Projects and Contact, while the day turns into night.

The walk

  • Hello: your name drops in letter by letter next to a little house with a smoking chimney.

  • Skills: each skill is a flag that climbs its pole to your level (1–5).

  • Work: up to four jobs grow out of the ground as buildings with years, role, company and a note.

  • Projects: up to four projects float in on hot-air balloons; each card can link out.

  • Contact: the road ends at a campfire under the northern lights, with a copy-email button and your links.

Details

  • The character walks in step with the scroll, turns around when you scroll back and hops over rocks.

  • Parallax mountains and forest, sun and moon, stars, birds, wind turbines, fireflies and a shooting star.

  • Chapter bar to jump to any chapter, and a Plain résumé button.

  • All text, skills, jobs, projects, links and the character's colours are edited in the properties panel.

  • Your fonts, a scroll-length setting, and a Canvas Scene slider to preview any moment while you edit.

Good to know

  • The walk is one code component. It plays on the published site; on the canvas you see a still frame set by Canvas Scene.

  • The résumé page is made of normal layers and is edited separately.

  • Looping animations pause off-screen and switch off for visitors who prefer reduced motion.
