A lurker sends their first message
It notices and smiles. A meeting, not just another message.
OBS overlay · Twitch · Closed beta
LiveGotchi puts a pixel creature on your OBS overlay. It hatches during your stream, grows with your hours on air, and reacts to what happens in chat: a first message, an emote spam, a sub, a raid. Neglect it too long and it gets sick.
100 free credits when you sign up: enough to hatch several creatures.

Welcome back
Off stream, your creatures sleep: they haven't aged a minute since your last visit. Set up the overlay, go live, and your chat takes over again.

What your chat can do
No commands to learn, no tutorial: chat does what it already does, and the creature answers. A few moments you'll see on a stream:
It notices and smiles. A meeting, not just another message.
It gets hyped and starts dancing.
It jumps for joy.
Heart eyes: it falls in love. Gifts make it dance.
It bounces, hyped. The more there are, the more it feeds.
Party time: it dances to welcome everyone.
Proud as ever, it dances at every level.
It spins around. Create a “Feed the creature” reward: your chat feeds it without paying a thing.
And that's not all. A command like !feed makes it jump. A timeout makes it angry, a ban scares it. And every egg has its own triggers: emojis and words picked by its creator, for your chat to discover on air.
On your stream
Not an overlay gadget looping forever: a creature that hatches in front of your chat, grows with it, and wastes away if everyone forgets it.
Your webcam, the chat box, the alert box become its platforms. Move a source in OBS: it moves along.
Messages, follows, subs, bits, raids, hype train: every event raises its health, strength, precision or mana. Its evolutions take hours on air, not one evening.
The hatching and every evolution happen live, in front of everyone. What it becomes depends on the care it got: nobody knows before they see it. Clip-worthy.
When a stat drops, a bubble above its head says so in a second: ❤️ 💪 🎯 🔮. A call left unanswered counts as a care mistake, and it remembers.
Training, ranked, tournaments: battles replay frame by frame. A defeat costs neither the creature nor its progress.
Floors, wallpapers, borders, decor items: drag and drop them onto the scene, and some react when chat goes wild.
Time only counts while you're live: off stream, it sleeps. Health under twenty, it gets sick; at zero for too long, it dies, for real. That's what makes every stream an appointment.
How it works
It is free. The beta is closed: your account is ready, and access opens in waves.
In the Incubator, every egg is drawn by a creator: its look, its evolutions, its powers, its reactions. Hatch it in the Nursery.
The OBS script adds the source at the right size. Link Twitch with a six-letter code, and it also hears follows, subs, bits, raids and hype trains.

Questions
LiveGotchi is a pixel creature game for Twitch streamers. The creature lives on the stream's OBS overlay: it hatches from an egg, reacts to chat, grows with hours on air, evolves stage after stage, fights in the arena, and can die if it is neglected during the stream.
Chat, first of all: a first message makes it smile, an emote spam makes it dance, a command like !feed makes it jump. With Twitch linked, it also reacts to follows, subs, bits, raids, hype trains, channel points, polls and predictions. A timeout makes it angry, a ban scares it. And every egg adds its own triggers, picked by its creator.
An egg is a creation drawn by a player in the workshop: a creature's look, its evolution stages, its powers and its reactions. It is bought with credits in the Incubator, hatches in the Nursery, and is resold between players at the Trading post when its copies are limited.
Creating an account is free. Some eggs and decorations are free, others are bought with credits. Credits are available in the shop.
OBS and a browser source, which the OBS script sets up for you. obs-websocket is optional: it lets the creature walk on your sources instead of a bare floor.
No. Without linking, it already hears chat messages. Linked to Twitch with a six-letter code, it also hears follows, subs, bits, raids and hype trains. No password ever goes through LiveGotchi.
Yes, only during a stream: of old age, or if its health stays at zero for too long. Off stream, it sleeps. In the arena and in tournaments, never. Only a battle to the death, accepted by both players, can put it out; the copy stays in the collection and starts again from its egg.
No. LiveGotchi has a closed in-game economy: credits, bought or earned, are spent in the game, on eggs, decorations, slots or publications.
