I.C.U The Interactive Game Horror Show - A game which integrates Twitch Chat into its gameplay

[Overcast]

So I just saw this today. Keenan Mossimann, aka Criken, a Youtuber with a large following has opened a Kickstarter for a game where a live Twitch audience controls what the player has to deal with in-game. Basically like a game show.

Thoughts?

Personally, I'm impressed. Whether or not this turns out to be successful, I have to give Criken credit for attempting to using streaming as a core game mechanic. (Unless there's someone else out there who already did it that I'm not aware of)

There was some indie game on steam that had a free to play thing where you could alter the game for a streamer.

Also the You Don't Know Jack games use streaming as a core component with the audience votes and what not.

But while it's not the first to integrate streaming into a game, it does look interesting and unique.

Yeah, the 2 Jackbox games collections can let the viewers participate.
