Question 1

🟩 Start

Accepted Answer

The Start block is used to start each graph. Therefore, it is not possible to erase it.

Question 2

🟦 Airtable

Accepted Answer

Example: https://creator.celestory.io/project/X2hu1xLcU

Airtable base link: https://airtable.com/universe/expv5ePD2Qfw7lIlK/nocode-serious-game-data-base

🟦 Airtable block

This block allows you to exchange with your database of your Airtable account (collaborative online spreadsheet).

1) To start using the Airtable block, you must Enable integrations

(Main Menu/Integrations). You must enter your API Airtable key which allows you to

this connection to one of your databases (i.e. your spreadsheets).

2) Copy the API key located by clicking on your profile picture, then "Account". In

On the "Account overview" page, the API section displays a pink area. Double-click on it and copy the key. Back in the Celestory integrations menu, paste it.

3) You can now create Airtable blocks. This is an evolving block. Start by selecting your database, then your table (this is your sheet).

From then on, 4 operations are proposed to you:

Create, Retrieve, Update, Delete

➕ Airtable operations

As a reminder, each line of y

Question 3

🎭 Visual Novel

Accepted Answer

Example link: https://creator.celestory.io/project/ETZKLG0ZZ

🔺 To activate the Visual Novel, you must create a new Module and choose the Visual Novel Template.

The Template created by default in a new project is the Chatbot Template.

Only the blocks linked to one of the templates are not compatible with the other.

🎭 Visual novel

In Celestory, there are 3 types of blocks: logic blocks, blocks linked to a template and blocks not linked to a template.

There are 2 templates: Chatbot and Visual Novel.

If the Chatbot template displays a wall for publishing messages, the Visual Novel template has several particularities:

It is made up around the scene, a decor that is cut in X places of the same width, which adapt to the size of the screen.
The characters have dialog images (a still image to the left of each dialog to indicate who is speaking) and moods, each of which can be associated to an image.
It has new blocks to animate the characters.
The actions of the blocks have delays.
It is compatible with an animation software that allows to have skeletons with 2D or 3D effects: Spine.

The specific blocks of the Visual template are

Question 4

🟩 Load video

Accepted Answer

Example link: https://creator.celestory.io/project/OqkScT5D5

The Upload video block allows to create a video value which can then be sent to another block via a constituent point. It allows to use the url of a video (direct link) to display it in the user interface.

To display a video player, like YouTube, read this article: https://documentation.celestory.io/en/article/insert-a-youtube-video-1horjlj/

Here we have indicated the direct link of the video in the url field of the block.

By connecting the output value with the constituent point of another compatible block (here, the media point of the Video Choice block), we can play the video file from Celestory's built-in player.

Now you know how to use the Load video block.

Question 5

☑️ Set up true/false conditions

Accepted Answer

Example link: https://creator.celestory.io/project/bzbrSDzy

Conditions are lead by variables in a graph. A variable is an indicator which can have a varying value.

Here is the value that can have each type of variable:

Boolean: True or False
Number: 1, 2, 3…
Text: chainofcharacters

We will see here how to create the most simple type of vairable 'boolean variables'.

1. To Start in Celestory

Go to https://creator.celestory.io/home/examples

**Let's open the example that is titled *02✅ Conditions true/false* this is a project that is pre-edited for the purpose of this tutorial.

Simply click on the cover picture to open the project.

2. Click on the Main Menu / Variables

To remove a variable go to the Main Menu, in the far left corner with the name of the project file on. Scroll down to Variables click once on Variables to open up a pop up window then click on Remove

Click on **Add va

Uniques choices:

The "Unique choices" block acts like the Choices block, and remembers the choices made by the user, and does not reproduce these proposals.

Finally there is an "end" output that will redirect the flow once all the choices have been used.

In this example, the user has a choice: A, B or C. If he chooses A, this choice will not be made again. He will only be able to choose between B and C. Once he has also experienced them - he will then be automatically directed to an end that will redirect the flow.
