Streamlabs Desktop setup

Add a game to Streamlabs with one link.

A StreamArena game goes into Streamlabs Desktop as a Browser Source: add the source, paste the game link, set 1920 by 1080, and viewers play from their phones by scanning the code on screen. It sits next to your alerts and widgets like any other source.

Is StreamArena a Streamlabs widget?

No, and that is the point. Streamlabs widgets like alerts react to your stream. A StreamArena game is a whole game, with rounds, a timer, a reveal and a scoreboard of your viewers' names, in the same Browser Source your widgets use.

Can Streamlabs chat play by typing?

Not in Streamlabs. Chat play reads chat through Upstream.so's multistream chat, so it works when you stream with Upstream.so. In Streamlabs, viewers play by phone wherever they watch, and guests do too.

Do I click inside the game?

You don't need to. Streamlabs can let you interact with a browser source, but the host remote on your phone or second screen runs the round: start, reveal, skip, next.

Where should the game sit in my scene?

Give it its own scene, with your camera small in a corner, so the question and code read on a phone. To keep it running while you talk, add it to your main scene too. It keeps its place unless the source shuts down when hidden.
