This is a weird one. I decided to make a twitch-powered game for this Ludum Dare! A small island is populated by twitch chat "tribes" and indirectly influenced and controlled via twitch chat commands.
the villagers will act by themselves, but can be influenced by players!
The following commands exist:
- !tribe - available until all tribe spawn points are filled. Creates a new tribe and automatically joins it!
- !join - joins a tribe, you will be placed by auto-balance and will "control" one specific villager.
- !wood - focus entirely on collecting wood!
- !build - focus on expanding! Will also cut wood when necessary.
- !attack [colour] - lead an attack on another tribe! This is very dangerous! You will rally any nearby npc villagers from your tribe to assist you in your attack.
- !defend - focus on defense! Will mostly idle, but will ignore other tasks like expansion and act against aggressors from a further radius and with increased strength.
- !retreat - very useful! Run back to your villager's "home". Will slowly heal once they have returned if left to idle.
Due to its nature there's not really much point me uploading the game for you to play. So I'm going to be running it as close to 24/7 as possible for you to play and observe. Will also upload some video footage.

*disclaimer: the version being streamed is Post Jam. As I couldn't resist adding more stuff, sorry! And as I can't viably stream the original at the same time I'm happy to accept if you don't feel comfortable rating this without playing the original properly. Some footage of what that game was like can be seen in the timelapse below (at the end there's some real time speed footage + commentary!)*
If you try to run the GameMaker Studio 2 source code, you will need to edit oMain's create event and insert your own twitch client id, channel name, user name, and oauth key. Google around for how to find these.
