What is this?
TwitchPlaysPokemon is a social experiment, it is a stream of the Gameboy version of Pokemon Red (151 romhack) running on an emulator. An IRC bot translates buttons said in chat into keypresses (simulated in software, no fancy typist robots).

How do I play?
Say the button you want pushed in chat (a, b, start select, up, down, left, right), please be aware that there is considerable input lag (see below) and will take awhile before your inputs are registered.

Only one button per message is accepted, there's no combos or holds.

you are definitely not the only one. Im kinda amazed that it holds a viewer audience of 50k people, but I love they managed to get past the 4th gym leader. I dont think itll take more than a week for them to beat the game at this rate, but anything could happen i guess.

This is the most interesting least interesting thing I've seen.

This is definitely amazing. Hearing that they got past the fourth gym leader is impressive. Sucks having input lag though. Makes the game that much harder.
