Hello, Joseph Evans! I am new to the episode community, and so far you are the best youtuber! I love your videos. Keep posting and goodbye! I have already subscribed and your tutorials are very helpful.
I love this new feature that Episode has added. I've recently read stories that had tappable overlays and I really appreciate this tutorial on how to create them! Thanks! xx
I just started writing my story a few days ago, and I thought I’d never figure this out. But after watching your videos, I got the hang of it now :) thank you so much!
Jeez Joseph!! The time you probably put into this!!! Creating the buttons, uploading them, filming, doing the scripting (taking twice as long because of explaining!), editing and uploading. Let's just all appreciate you. 👏👏👏👏 Omg!!!! I was like halfway through the vid when I commented this. TWO EXAMPLES!!!! Plus coming up with ideas to tell us!! Wow!!
Already watched that yesterday but still came here to give a big thumbs up^^ Your tutorials are always sooooo helpful! Your explanations are just so easy to understand. :)
I've been asking around on Episode's new Post features, but no one replies. "How do you allow the player to pick the gender of avatar? Like the choice of playing a male or a female character."
Hello Joseph! I just wanted to let you know I love your Episode stories so so SO much! They help me out a lot! Like if I'm having trouble trying to figure out something in a story, I come STRAIGHT to your channel! :) And I hope you continue you to make these videos!
All you need to do is make/find text overlays that have the context you want (example: "bored") then spot direct them to where you want it, and like in the kiss list, shift the overlay slightly above the head of the character meanwhile changing the opacity. Remember to use the & symbol!
Hello joesph! When is Episode going to release glitch girl? It’s been so long and we want to read because it is so exciting to read your stories!! Please tell us when?
This is really helpful, thank you! I saw a similar feature where you had to tap five glass bottles in less than 10 seconds (because the character was practising with guns) and I was wondering how I may be able to do that. Can you please make a video on how to do something similar to this, where in a certain amount of time, the player needs to tap a certain amount or a certain type of overlays in order to gain points or to progress in the story?
How to make sure that a reader has searched for every clue in a particular scene before it can move forward. I mean I want the reader to be able to go to the next scene only if they have looked for all the possible clues.
This is absolutely incredible! Thanks so much for this tutorial. I’ll be sure to check out your Patreon page to see how I can help you continue to make these amazing videos. 😄
Hi Joesph! I just wanted to say thank you for all of the videos you post. They are a SERIOUS help! I'm having issues with figuring two things out and was hoping you either had videos about them already or if you could make some on these things. I can't seem to figure out how to move the speech bubbles out of the characters face. and I wanted to know if you knew how to use the red cop light overlay for blush on characters also. Hope to hear from you soon!
Sofie Thomsen I have but right now something is wrong with my account and when I log in it brings me to a new account. I've filed a support ticket but so at nothing has really happened.
I've tried putting this on the episode forum, but I still haven't found a solution. Whenever I use overlays, they don't end up in the right spot they're supposed to. For example, in the code, I have an overlay that is supposed to ‘shifts to -361 -4’. But when I look at it in the app, it says that it ‘shifts to -675 9’ and I don't know why.
My only question is how you got the overlays like the beach and the village with the background cover and the colorful "lines" around it, either way, this was really helpful! Thank you!
If we want to make a tappable button that will bring the reader to his closet, how do we send them back with the choice « Go back to the story »? I tried with labels, but it didn’t work. :/
I haven't played around with overlays at all but I love the video. A question I have is for overlays or choices. When a reader picks an overlay that they want (location) how can you tell how to continue your story? For each place that they pic do you have to have a continuance from that location in the script?
let's say your character is already in the center, all you have to do is @CHARACTER walks to screen left @CHARACTER walks to screen left and then repeat this a few times.
Amazing tutorial! But why is only 1 of my 8 tappable overlays working? I'm sitting here for hours trying to figure out why! I'm desperate guys! Please help meeee!
Thank you so much for this video, but I have a question. So basically, I have three tappable overlays that need to be tapped in order to get to the next scene, but it doesn't work. So, after I tap one overlay, the scene changes, but I need the reader to tap all three overlays so that the scene can change. I don't know if this made any sense um... Please help
You need to upload the overlay first, wait for it to be approved then you can publish it. Coding the episode, however, doesn't need an approved overlay. Go to art catalog, you'll find that feature!
so i used one of episodes script templates (Avatar - Name Input) and then I get an error in that code saying "ERROR: You cannot have a label inside if/then statements or {}". I'm getting really frustrated because I don't know what I'm supposed to do and I haven't messed around with the template so I don't know if it's just episode that is wrong or if I did something wrong
ok, the problem is when you use this tappable thing, it doesn't go on to the scene change, it stops right after the curly bracket ends. The tappable overlay works, but it doesn't go on to any scene changes or events that happen after you cut off the curly bracket. It just stops right inside the code in the curly brackets. To fix this, I just used a label in the beginning of the scene change and the goto command at the end of the code in the curly bracket. It takes you to the next scene instead of looping back in the code of the curly brackets or stopping entirely. Hopefully, this rant helps if any of that ^ happens while you use this lol.
Hi, how do you change its layers because I would like to place an overlay above another overlay but I couldn't place them whilst its shown as an error? Please help :)
You know your better at explaining things than my maths teacher
RIIIIGGGGHTT!!!
My math teacher needs a program to get the answers. Might as well let the board teach us.
My math teacher can legit explain something for a whole hour and when he’s done I don’t know what to do cause I fell asleep😂
Abi Rush 😂agreed
My math teacher is on meth... She made us decorate the whole school and we had a test the next day!

THANK YOU FOR THIS!!
Can you possibly do a video on how to use Gimp please and my friend and I love your videos
can you teach us how to make layers of overlays? and how to make them in front and behind characters?
Hello, please make a tutorial how to make people talk at the same time please! I have a problem with it In the limelight one.
I've tried putting this on the episode forum, but I still haven't found a solution. Whenever I use overlays, they don't end up in the right spot they're supposed to. For example, in the code, I have an overlay that is supposed to ‘shifts to -361 -4’. But when I look at it in the app, it says that it ‘shifts to -675 9’ and I don't know why.
THIS DOESNT WORK FOR ME PLEASE HELP!!!!!
My only question is how you got the overlays like the beach and the village with the background cover and the colorful "lines" around it, either way, this was really helpful! Thank you!
My exact thoughts. They're really nice. I assume he made them himself.
I really wanna learn how you did an explosion scene in Glitch Girl. Can you make a tutorial of it? :)
Can you show us to use tappable on foods??
i just spend a half hour trying to figure out what i did wrong cause it would not work. i had written a p instead of d in tappable
R.I.P
So we don't have to ask the reader whether they are able to tap on the overlays in case of the island? Cuz i am doing the dresses!
If we want to make a tappable button that will bring the reader to his closet, how do we send them back with the choice « Go back to the story »? I tried with labels, but it didn’t work. :/
Hey Joesph I really like your stories do you know how to add the gun prop
How should i code an overlay to be able when the reader press one of them...like a manequin with a dress and she wants to chose one of them?
And can you tell us.. how do you do that with outift choices?
I haven't played around with overlays at all but I love the video. A question I have is for overlays or choices. When a reader picks an overlay that they want (location) how can you tell how to continue your story? For each place that they pic do you have to have a continuance from that location in the script?
how to create our own overlays and make Episode to accept them?
where's the remembering choices video? i believe you said in tutorial 7 you'd make one. did i miss something?
What if you can't tap/move a tappable overlay? Can you fix that?
great
Would you make an tutorial on the first scene about youre series, Glitch Girl.
This moved all of my speech bubbles... what do I do?
When you move ur first one, when u have the other speech bubbles (ik it’s a pain but...) you set them where u want them
Can you do a tutorial on how to make the characters walk side to side?
let's say your character is already in the center, all you have to do is @CHARACTER walks to screen left @CHARACTER walks to screen left and then repeat this a few times.
Also make sure you put @CHARACTER faces left in between, because otherwise they'll start walking to the left when their face is still to the right.
I would really love to know what cut to zone 123 means
mine doesnt seem to let me click in preview is this a window thing or is something wrong?
How do you make the overlays and add them? My computer says the overlay doesn’t exist
Amazing tutorial! But why is only 1 of my 8 tappable overlays working? I'm sitting here for hours trying to figure out why! I'm desperate guys! Please help meeee!
Thank you so much for this video, but I have a question. So basically, I have three tappable overlays that need to be tapped in order to get to the next scene, but it doesn't work. So, after I tap one overlay, the scene changes, but I need the reader to tap all three overlays so that the scene can change. I don't know if this made any sense um... Please help
Is there a catalog where overlays are already accepted?
You need to upload the overlay first, wait for it to be approved then you can publish it. Coding the episode, however, doesn't need an approved overlay. Go to art catalog, you'll find that feature!
How can you have 2 overays that are the same? It keeps saying I already created that overlay but I want the same one twice. How can I do that?
How do I make the choice of the reader read the episode or miss the episode? (For ink)
I am new to script writing, and I am watching your videos as I go. But I wanted to know how do you switch back and forth between scenes?
How to get bubble with many picture for choices?
How did put someone behind the counter
It doesn't work for me ): It stops and doesn't let me tap on anything.
so i used one of episodes script templates (Avatar - Name Input) and then I get an error in that code saying "ERROR: You cannot have a label inside if/then statements or {}". I'm getting really frustrated because I don't know what I'm supposed to do and I haven't messed around with the template so I don't know if it's just episode that is wrong or if I did something wrong
How do you do that "gain" thing you're talking about ?
How do you make people text each other on the phone??
ok, the problem is when you use this tappable thing, it doesn't go on to the scene change, it stops right after the curly bracket ends. The tappable overlay works, but it doesn't go on to any scene changes or events that happen after you cut off the curly bracket. It just stops right inside the code in the curly brackets. To fix this, I just used a label in the beginning of the scene change and the goto command at the end of the code in the curly bracket. It takes you to the next scene instead of looping back in the code of the curly brackets or stopping entirely. Hopefully, this rant helps if any of that ^ happens while you use this lol.
You can use labels
Hi, how do you change its layers because I would like to place an overlay above another overlay but I couldn't place them whilst its shown as an error? Please help :)
please can you do this in ink?
does anyone know where I can find these overlays?
