A community, dedicated to playing games interactively through stream chat on PeerTube.

Current Fedi Plays: Peertube Plays Chocobo Dungeon 2

Stream on pause for now: Fedi Plays Dragon Warrior: Monsters

Available commands:

Type these commands in the chat to control the game:

up/u - Move up
down/d - Move down
left/l - Move left
right/r - Move right
triangle/t - Press triangle button
square/s - Press square button
cross/x - Press cross button
circle/o - Press circle button

start - Press Start button select - Press Select button

use "x o 4" to do 4 "cross and circle" button presses. the number has to be the last character and it goes up to 15

I'm [solidheron] able to get the latency down to 7 seconds and hopefully the ability to string inputs will make fedi plays easier

How It Works

enter a command into chat
closets command to the 4 second check will get executed
Multiple viewers' inputs create chaotic and unpredictable gameplay

Thanks for the initial idea and current stream to solidheron:

I keep twerking the script hopefully it doesn't execute a previous chat anymore. The script won't parse any data until a new message appears in chat. Also I lowered new messages check by 2 seconds so latency is reduced by 2 seconds and commands can be stringed faster.

I have looked at old VODs of twitch plays Pokemon the one involving final fantasy 7 and the commands get put onto a stack and executed in chronological order. These vods are 4 years ago and the original design idea was based on twitch plays Pokemon red that seemed to execute whatever is most recent

Now I'm working on a script that takes peertube chat and puts them into inputs on a virtual PS4 controller. So far it works but it needs a way to do two button presses

I might make a fedi plays for chocobo dungeon on the ps1
