Last night, I played through Portal for the first time -- for homework. I have to write a journal entry on it over 500 words and I chose to do it on how the rules...I'm in a video game theory class. It's a new field and my professor is one of the first to really delve into it.
In the class we garner assignments by moving around a game board. When we land on a certain space, we do the assignment. There are movement rules and you have to plot your own path. At the end of the semester, all your points are totaled. 450+ is A+, 450-425 is A, then I think it goes by 45 points for every letter grade (not sure).

I want to develop a map where people could mouse over the icon over a particular area to see the assignment, average points, have hotlinks to other files (like short paper assignment would link & open the guidelines) and have a space which made it easy to record where/what points you received, basically create a comprehensive class package for the game in an all-in-one folder (which could be easily edited if you needed to change assignment details for [interdisciplinary] classes).
No specific requirement is critical, if it can be equivalent that's good enough (like instead of opening another file it would be a giant file with hyperlinks to different sections)
I'd want this to be made in a format which is widely available (msword, pdf, something like that) -- basically anything on my school's network. Or if the program creates a standalone file which can be easy downloaded, that works too.
so far I'm planning on doing this with msword somehow, but I'd like to consider all of my options before I start. I have no idea where to look. If you think you know of some software which could help point me at it.
