Pixel Avatars Controlled by Chat? | Building a Live Coding World
Feb 15, 2026
Interactive coding stream where chat directly controls pixel avatars live on screen. Think old school online game energy mixed with real time development as I build this system in public.
This project connects multiple live chats into one shared world where viewers can spawn, equip, and guide their own avatars while I develop the tech live.
Live features:
Pixel avatar overlay driven by chat
AI moderated YouTube chat
Dozens of commands like !help and !spawn
Dress and equip your avatar
Choose a unique TTS voice
Send your avatar after collectibles
Merged YouTube and TikTok chat
I build everything live, so you will see real coding, testing, and debugging across WebRTC, websockets, Node.js, React, Python, Elixir, TensorFlow, WebGL and canvas rendering, DevOps, and native app development.
For developers, retro game lovers, and curious builders who enjoy deep tech breakdowns and watching systems evolve in real time.
This is not a company production. Just one developer building a living system in the open.
How many avatars do you think it can support? Let’s find out live.
