Vincent Battaglia@vinch · Slasher
Thanks @bramk for hunting Ludus! It feels great to be here! My name is Vincent Battaglia and I’m a Co-Founder and CTO at Ludus. We are happy to finally show the world what we’ve been working on during the past few months. Right now, you’re probably wondering why the world needs another presentation tool so we wrote an article to explain why it makes sense … See more

@vinch it's funny that you explained why you called it Ludus but didn't mention the connection to Ready Player One! (If you don't know the connection, you must go read the book!)

@chrismessina Originally, that's the reason why we called it Ludus! RPO is one of my favorite books! Can't wait to see what Steven Spielberg will do with it!

@chrismessina @vinch Oh goodness. I didn't make the connection. RPO is also one of my favourite books, my favourite book last year (along with When Breath Becomes Air): http://fredrivett.com/2017/01/01... Very cool naming Vincent 🙌

@vinch I you had me at "drag and drop anything." I used to be a Keynote power user (pre-revamp 'mobile' strategy). The efficiencies I'm imagining are making me excited - kinda excited (like when RPO lived up to my anticipation) :). I hope this will also. Any chance to be on Beta list also somehow?

@vinch Congratulations! This looks sooooo rad! Yes, the world does need a new presentation tool. I have tried them all. I hope Ludus will have animated features and html export similar to Visme. I just signed up for beta release and would be happy to share notes.

Congrats on shipping Vincent + team! I had the privilege to play around with Ludus a couple weeks back and it's clear a tonne of attention has gone into it. Even at launch it feels super polished, which I'm sure will increase as the team respond to customer feedback. What I like most about Ludus is that it's just intuitive. It does what you want it to and g… See more

@fredrivett Thanks for you comment! It means a lot!

Ivan Dergachev@dergachoff · The Clients
As a heavy and at the same time frustrated Keynote user, I'm pretty interested in this thing. Any plans to add animation support?

Vincent Battaglia@vinch · Slasher
@dergachoff Definitely! It's in the short-term roadmap!

@dergachoff This is already on the roadmap, we will keep you posted for sure!

It looks great! I look forward to it. You can change your meta description though. "The web is full of beautiful ideas and services. Ludus is the first one to provide an easy way to gather them all in a single place." It doesn't mention slides; sounds more like automated curation.

@shrutikaushikit You're right, we'll change that.

Great job on the video--this looks stellar! The smart blocks is so obviously necessary at this point, especially given Sketch's success...! A few thoughts: compatibility with Sketch files and symbols? What's the ability to share and collaborate with others? Can you share smart blocks too? Pricing model?
9·
Vincent Battaglia@vinch · Slasher
@chrismessina Thanks! We plan to work on some Sketch export features pretty soon. About collaboration, the current plan is individual but we are working on a team plan which will allow multiple people to work at the same time on the same presentation. The pricing is here: https://ludus.one/pricing/

I WANT THIS SO BADLY. PLEASE. I'M DYING OUT HERE. Just for info, how secure is it? And are you implementing multiple users working on the same presa? Thanks, and good luck!

Dorian Van Bever@dorian_van_bever · Chief Marketing Officer @Ludus.
@ross_mccurrach It's totally secured ! And multiple concurrent users is part of our roadmap, keep you posted :)

Looks beautiful! Can't wait to try it. I really hate using presentation tools, but it's a necessity at my job. Ludos looks like a tool that takes care of all the things I hate about restrictive presentation tools.

Would be interesting to see if this was a good tool for low-fidelity prototyping

Vincent Battaglia@vinch · Slasher
@livejamie Interesting! We didn't think about that but it could be a possible use, indeed.

Jamie Martin@livejamie · Senior UX/UI at Raven Software
@vinch Signed up for the beta, would love to provide lots of feedback in regards to prototyping. A lot of us designers use Keynote/Powerpoint for that kind of work already so I can see this being a natural extension of that.

Xavier Castaneda@xcast3d · Developer of kittylauncher.com
wow, this seems amazing. At our agency, we've used powerpoint, keynote and google slides and never really been satisfied. The features here look amazing. The video does an excellent job of really demonstrating it. Animation support would be killer. We're already looking into this as a solution for agency use. Good work!
5·
Dorian Van Bever@dorian_van_bever · Chief Marketing Officer @Ludus.
@xcast3d Thanks Xavier ! Surely keep us posted on your agency use-case, we're highly interested in it ! And as said elsewhere, animation are part of the roadmap already :-)

Justin Fyles@justifyles · Product Strategist, Intrepid
@dorian_van_bever @xcast3d Excited for this use case as well. I create at least 3-4 client-facing decks per week with help from designers and account people. I am curious to see how collaboration works with this, especially across disciplines.

This is amazing and affordable. $99/year for individuals is great!

Jibril Quincy@mou_jb · UX / Brand Designer
Wow!! This is impressively cool. You've given Powtoon something to chew on. However, I do feel that for your product to get a powerful appreciation by users, your team should engage in some free time samples. These should be listed under EXAMPLES or some appropriate word you may choose. And while you do these samples, attached to them the time it took to com… See more
