Twitch Integration

Please make an integration that each duck in the pool could be one of the viewers/subscribers.

I'm not very expert with twitch (read: not expert at all), could you articulate a bit more?

Twitch is a streaming service Twitch.tv where there are plenty games being broadcast daily. The website offers API integration that collects info from the channel's chat (which is IRC-based) and it can be used to create chat bots or even interact with the game played.

For example: chatter nicknames, subscribers nicknames, sometimes voting polls can activate features in the game played, etc.

Here are some examples:

yes please add twitch integration for chatters / subs / followers so people can use a command in chat to spawn a duck. in our channel people were a bit disappointed that !duck had no effect

The stream I watched just named the ducks after viewers who asked and were regulars. Twitch integration can be pretty buggy as seen with Cult Of The Lamb's integration and raffles for viewers to be named as a cult member. Just do it manually if you stream it works better.

Back when I created this topic you couldn't even rename the ducks, my friend.

There are even multiple ready-made solutions for integrating twitch from a technical side, eg. this here: https://github.com/lexonegit/Unity-Twitch-Chat

There are basically two different APIs that Twitch offers: Chat (via IRC) and via a PubSub API. The latter is the more complicated one, but you get events like "someone spend points or money/Bits to do X" which could be "spawning a duck".

An example for the API (not chat) integration would be this: https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/integration/twitch-connect-2-160178

For a streamer, it is always nice to have a game that viewers can interact with. In the case of the Duck Simulator a scenario could be to have it on screen while the streamer is having a break. Viewers can then send either commands via chat that have an effect in the game or spend channel points or even money (bits) to do stuff in the game.

Just my two cents, not a streamer myself. ^^

Modding is always an option. Similar mod exists for minecraft called twitch spawns. So you can play modded and have custom spawns and drops for subs and bits etc. Just need someone who knows what they are doing.

True. And since it is Unity we already have bepinex/HarmonyX, but it is always nicer when the creator either implements a feature themself or has a proper modding API. So let's hope for a proper integration, and maybe someone also creates a mod, whatever comes first.

Currently i’m running a friends stream, where i added some basic twitch interaction with mods: twitch.tv/floofyplasma you can spawn ducks unbox them and even change the camera. (aswell as screenshot but they don’t show up yet) I’ve done this by modding the game with some C# mods, i’d love it there was official mod support or twitch integration

Nice! Will you be sharing this? Is there a github repository?

[Eva]

I most likely will release it onto github soon!

That would be great. I found this game because of someone streaming it. Integration could make more stream it so in turn help more players find the game,l and it'll be fun for viewers and streamers.
