Plan-It (Twitch Chat Game)

THIS IS A TWITCH CHAT GAME. YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PLAY IT ON YOUR OWN OR WITHOUT A TWITCH ACCOUNT.

If you're having issues with signing into Twitch through the itch.io page, try playing the game at https://vykri.com/gamedevjs/ .

Instructions:

Click the "Login to Twitch" button to get redirected to a Twitch page to authorize the login. After pressing "Authorize", you'll be redirected to https://vykri.com/gamedevjs/ and the game will automatically start.

While the game is running, anyone can type in your Twitch page's chat to play the game (even if you're offline).

The game starts in overlay mode with a bright magenta background and instructions on how to overlay the game on your stream. You can turn this off by clicking on the options button in the top left and disabling overlay mode.

There is a scrolling How To Play text at the bottom of the screen, but I'll repeat it here.

To set a unit's action and direction, type "[ID] [shoot|reflect] [left|right]" (ex. "2 shoot left") into the chat.

After x seconds are up, all of the shooting units will shoot their guns. Whichever team has more units alive at the end wins the round.

You can optionally type "join [red|blue]" into chat to join a team. This will just change the color of your name when it appears to that team's color. You can still control both team's units even if you've joined a team.

By default, after half of the round time has passed, half of each team's units will become locked. This can be changed in the options menu.

About:

This game was created in 14 days (didn't start until there were 7 days left though) for the gamedev.js jam. The theme was "Mirror" which is incorporated in this game by the units having a "reflect" action which uses a mirror shield to reflect laser beams back at the shooters.
