Live Coding Stream Night: 104 - Youtube Live Avatar Chat : react, phaser, webrtc, webgl, node

🔴 WATCH CHAT COME ALIVE

Building Kynto — every person in chat gets their own avatar with a unique TTS voice they can control. Type commands, your avatar moves, speaks, and reacts. All built live, every night.

⚡ TONIGHT'S BUILD:
→ New avatar reactions system
→ Chat-triggered animations
→ Voice customization features
→ WebRTC experiments (screens, cams, guests)
→ Maybe some PSP web dev chaos

💬 INTERACTIVE COMMANDS (Try them NOW):
!whoami → highlight yourself (glow, jump & speak)
!move up/down/left/right → control your avatar
!jump → make your avatar leap
!dance → bust a move
!shrink → become tiny
!grow → get HUGE
!crawl → lie down and chill
!float → defy gravity
!warp x y → teleport anywhere (e.g., !warp 500 300)
!wardrobe → change your look
!identify → see who's here from where
!help → full command list

🛠️ TECH STACK:
JavaScript | WebRTC | WebSockets | Canvas | WebGL | TTS APIs | Next.js | React | Phaser | Node.js | Python

🎯 WHY I'M BUILDING THIS:
Recently laid off after 20 years as a self-taught dev. Building the streaming tools I wish existed — where chat isn't just text, it's alive. No OBS plugins. Just browser-based magic.

📍 THE VISION:
✅ Every viewer gets a persistent avatar across streams
✅ Chat controls games, overlays, stream elements
✅ Multi-platform (Twitch + YouTube + Kick sync)
✅ Fully open development — you shape what gets built

🔔 Subscribe to watch:
→ Chat avatars evolve with new features nightly
→ Real dev work (bugs, wins, and "oh shit" moments)
→ Honest tech career talk (layoffs, upskilling, pivoting)
