The Games feature allows you to create & tweak your own games for your channel. Mix It Up comes with tons of different game types that you can add to your game. With each game, you can use the “stock” version of it that we build for you when you first create it or you can completely re-vamp it to your hearts content. You can also create multiple different versions of the same game type. For example, you could create 10 different versions of the Spin game, each with their own command triggers, probabilities, and payouts.
Currency Requirement
When creating a game for the first time, it will automatically add a currency requirement using the default currency if you have one. You can optionally remove any currency requirements for some games, but not all games as some functionally don’t make sense with a currency requirement.
Special Identifiers
All games have various sub-commands that are part of them; these are how the game will interact with your viewers, such as saying things in chat. When using these sub-commands, you can use the regular Special Identifiers in them, plus the following additional ones:
