What is livegameanimator?

Live Game Animator is a tool that turns live-stream comments into interactive games you can show on screen. It is built to work with OBS, the popular broadcasting software used by streamers on YouTube and TikTok. The project supports both standard widescreen (16:9) and vertical phone-style (9:16) layouts, so it fits different stream formats. The tool ships with nine ready-to-play games: Boss Raid, Country Wheel, Football, Trivia Quiz, Guess the Emoji, Word Hunt, Number Battle, Falling Pickaxe, and Tetris. Viewers participate by typing comments in the live chat, and their messages drive the action on screen. The system listens to YouTube live comments directly and can also receive input from TikTok or other platforms through an external webhook bridge. Beyond the games themselves, the project includes several streamer-friendly features. It connects to OBS through WebSocket, supports automatic rotation between games, and offers an infinite mode for continuous play. There is also built-in moderation, an XP system for rewarding viewers, and analytics to track engagement. The interface, game content, and chat commands are available in both English and Turkish, and the exclamation mark prefix on commands is optional. To run the project locally, you need Node.js 20 or higher, OBS Studio 28 or higher, and Windows 10 or 11. After installing dependencies with npm, a single command starts the development server. The dashboard and the OBS source are served at local URLs, with a language parameter to switch between English and Turkish. The README also notes that secrets like API keys, stream keys, and OBS passwords are kept in process memory and should never be committed to version control. The project is released under the Apache License 2.0, with separate third-party notices included.
