Maskonauts: Chat'Attack

About

Maskonauts: Chat'Attack is a chaotic arcade shooter that turns Twitch chat into live gameplay. You pilot a Maskopod, battling waves of text spam, emoticons, and digital enemies while scavenging for power-ups. Every message typed by viewers directly impacts the action, new threats spawn from chat messages, and your responses shape the battlefield. Survive escalating waves, tackle boss fights, and collect loot to upgrade your ship. Play solo or team up with others for co-op runs. The game thrives on real-time interaction, making each session unpredictable. What sets it apart is the direct link between players and the community. Your chat isn’t just passive, it fuels the game’s chaos. Android and PC cross-play keeps the action accessible, while co-op modes encourage teamwork against relentless waves. Though the 2022 release date hasn’t sparked major awards, its quirky concept and reactive design earn praise from fans of social gaming. If live interaction and fast-paced looter-shooter action appeal to you, this one’s a standout.

Storyline

In 2020, the quanty bandit research lab made an incredible discovery by observing strange interferences in our data streams: “Fabulous creatures live in electromagnetic waves!” Because of their mischievous character, their versatile appearance and their amazing abilities, they are named “Maskotios”, in reference to small festive masks. It is quickly discovered that they feed on the information (text chats) and emotions (emoticons and emojis) exchanged in our various data streams and transform them into a large amount of energy, the Emogy. In order to observe, study and interact with the Maskotios, quanty bandit is developing a panel of applications and a dedicated artificial intelligence. Overwhelmed by the incredible number of different creatures, quanty bandit creates the Maskonauts project, allowing the whole world to participate in the study of the Maskotios.
