Streamer guide
A battle royale your chat plays: viewers type !join, get an AI viking, and give it orders.
Free, nothing to install, and every result counts on your viewers' profiles.
Setup (2 minutes)
- Open the Streamer dashboard and log in with Twitch (we only read your name and id).
- Pick how to show it:
- ▶ Play — opens the game in its own browser window. Show it with OBS Window Capture (or any screen share). Keep that window open and not minimized — browsers pause hidden tabs. Click the game once to enable sound.
- OBS Browser Source — copy your private link from the dashboard, add a Browser source, set width/height to your canvas (e.g. 1920×1080 or 2560×1440) and untick "Shutdown source when not visible". Tick "Control audio via OBS" to mix the sound. Never show this link on stream.
- That's it — the game connects to your chat automatically.
Running a battle
| You or your mods type | What happens |
|---|---|
!open | Opens the pit — viewers type !join. Small chat? Draugr fill the pit
up to 6 fighters (change or switch off on the dashboard): they hunt viewers, count for nothing and crumble
when one viewer is left. Even a single viewer can fight the horde (a solo battle is just for fun — not recorded). |
!open jarl | Opens a Jarl battle: you fight as a giant Jarl against all of chat (needs at least 1 viewer). The Jarl's strength scales with how many join, so it's a fair fight at any size. You don't !join yourself — the Jarl is you. Whoever fells you is the Jarlslayer. Your record as the Jarl goes on the Top Jarls chart, separate from normal stats. |
!roar · !stomp · !summon | Your Jarl's powers (only you, during a Jarl battle; also buttons on the control bar). Roar stuns everyone near you (25 s cooldown), stomp blasts them back (15 s), summon raises draugr to fight for you (45 s). Ignore them and your Jarl uses them on its own after a short wait; time them well and you'll win more often. At 50% and 25% health the Jarl becomes enraged: it roars and attacks faster. |
!begin | Starts the battle. |
!arena night / day / snow | Switches the arena look (remembered). |
Prefer clicking? Move your mouse over the game: a control bar appears (New battle, Jarl battle, Begin battle, Arena) and hides again after a few seconds, so it stays off stream.
A battle runs about 2–3 minutes (longer with Valhalla). At the end, the top three stand on the podium,
then the full results appear until you !open the next one. Share
How to play with your chat.
Hands-free mode
On the dashboard, turn on Auto-start battles (a countdown in the pit, default 60 s — !begin
still starts early; if too few have joined it waits, then starts 10 s after enough are in) and
Open the next battle by itself (30 s after the results, same mode as the last battle). Together
they run battle after battle while you just stream.
Settings
On the dashboard you can tune the Valhalla chance, hazards, max vikings, volume, and each chat command's success chance and cooldown. Changes apply from the next battle.
Troubleshooting
- Commands do nothing — check the bottom-left corner says "#yourchannel connected".
Only you and your mods can use
!open/!begin. - "Jarl battle unavailable" — the game hasn't finished connecting to your chat yet; wait a moment, or type anything in your chat, then try again.
- "stats not saved" in the corner — log in on the dashboard again (Play mode), or use your current OBS link (old links stop working after "New link").
- Frozen or slow — the game window was minimized or its tab was in the background.
- Your OBS link leaked — click "New link" on the dashboard and update OBS.
