Screenshot showing an open twitch poll on the left and a prototype Ren'Py scene on the right. The game shows a choice menu: what do you want to have for dinner: chiken or feeesh. The Twitch poll has one vote for feeesh, and vote counters beneath the choices in-game show the vote counts as well. There is also a bar at the top that says "Let chat decide!" With controls to configure and stop the poll.

So, upon popular request I've integrated a typewriter-effect. All characters can have individual audio files to make sound while talking.
