Twitchoos RUN: Socks & Stream

An audience interactive platform game. I’m always on the lookout for more ways to interact with Twitch viewers and so I decided to try this game out when the dev approached me for a review. I gave it a spin and concluded that is a great idea for a game, but ultimately it lacks content. There is one level. The different modes of play are basically the same. The game mechanics aren’t explained even though they are basic, there isn’t an option to custom the controls if you wanted. There is a bit of a hiccup when it comes to fully translating languages. I chose to play in English and some of the text still came up in French. There was quite a bit of game delay between chat input and my game play. There was a lot of standing around doing nothing. And finally, the way the character is designed to run is very stereotypical “effeminate gay man” run and feels like a jab at the LGBTQ+ Community. If you want to play a quick, yet frustrating game with your live streaming viewers, feel free to go for this game. If this isn’t free to play, I would not recommend anyone buying it. A lot more work needs to go into this title. Achievement Hunter’s Note: N/A Achievement Acquisition Difficulty: N/A
