Pixel Quest

01 How it plays

Every tip is an attack

A tip hits the monster for as many tokens as it is worth. 25 and up casts a spell, 100 and up lands a critical hit. No commands to learn.

Tippers join the party

Your first tip of the show puts your hero on screen: a knight, cleric, mage or rogue. The six most recent tippers fight together, the latest one up front.

Bosses and zones

Four kills bring out the zone boss. Beat it and the party travels on: village, forest, cave, castle, then the abyss, and around again.

Heroes that show it

Regulars level up their look: a cape at 100 lifetime tokens, a helmet at 500, a crown and golden weapon at 2000. Big tips get coin showers, treasure chests and fireworks.

02 Screens

Captured from the overlay running in demo mode. In OBS it wraps around your camera: the world sits behind you and the heroes step in front.

A 300 token tip drops a treasure chest in front of the party in the castle — Big tips crack open loot chests

The 3D battle strip: four heroes with capes, helmets and crowns face an imp on the castle ramparts — The battle strip

Boss intro: letterbox bars and a nameplate as the dragon Cinderwing enters the cave — Every zone ends in a boss

An 800 token champion tip: fireworks over the party and a Champion Tip plate — Champion tips light up the sky

The full-frame view: the village, the party on the left, a goblin on the right, the top tippers and the zone progress dots — Top tippers and the road to the boss

A 260 token tip in the Abyss: a treasure chest lands in front of the party — Every tip gets a moment on screen

03 Stream it anywhere

Yes, you can stream Pixel Quest.

You are free to stream, record, clip, upload and monetize footage of Pixel Quest on any platform: Chaturbate, Twitch, YouTube, Kick, TikTok, your own site, anywhere. No permission needed, no fees and no revenue share.

A shout-out or a link to pixelquestlive.com is appreciated but never required.

04 For streamers

Runs on your machine. A small local app; nothing is hosted for you and nothing is sent back to the platform.
Drops into OBS. Add it as a 1920x1080 browser source, as a compact battle strip or as two layers that sandwich your camera. Optional sound.
Mods stay in control. Mods can type !pq pause and !pq resume in chat; the private control panel can also call a boss, change zone or undo.
Nothing to set up for viewers. They just tip as usual. Anonymous tips still count, they just never show a name.
