What are Evotars?

• Evotars are free browser-based avatars in Twitch streams, where viewers and chatters will turn into interactive game-like characters that react to chat and perform commands.
• It’s lightweight and easy to set up, perfect for small streamers who want to engage with their audience and grow their channel.

Features

• Active Commands: Chatters can make evotar !jump, !dash, !grow, !color, and more.
• Channel Rewards: Chatters can use channel points to do actions like jump or change skin.
• Chat Bubble and Emotes: Evotars will show show bubble speeches and emotes, with 7TV emote support.
• Customization: Chatters can customize their avatar’s appearance — from color to skin.
• Raid Support: Raiders' evotars will 'fall' from the top to welcome the incoming community.
• Easy to Use: Web-based, so no downloads or complicated setup needed for OBS.
