Next step
What to do next
Type your name, open Pong, send friends the room code. Works on iPhone, Mac, and desktop.
No password. Pick a name and play — iPhone, Mac, or desktop.
Color
Owner tools — Go Live, stream key, host logs. Not needed to play.
Optional. Auto-loads your stream key so you don’t paste live_… every time.
Checking Twitch connection…
Tap a chip — that opens the game.
Play with friends
Pick a game below → play → Start room for friends. Go Live after you're playing.
Expand only if Twitch doesn’t go live.
Errors, warnings, every keystroke, taps and room events with EST time (hh:mm:ss · mm/dd/yyyy). Use this to report a bug — Copy log and send it. Nothing here leaves this device.
Easy path: Guest → Open Pong → room code → Copy invite.
Waiting…
Play · stage is the main product.
Pick a game above — it fills this frame. Then Go Live if you want Twitch.
These may need Screen share of another tab. Easy path (Pong) does not.
Xbox / GFN: open the service, then Stream → share that game tab. Arcade / Flinch: share this SquadForge tab if the game doesn’t composite.
On-site games (Block Drop, Orb Rush…) stream like Pong. Cloud needs tab share.
Squad · one Room code for friends · optional Duel.
Friends join on their phones. Everyone sees the same active game.
Your Room code — send this one code to friends
…
Locked: nobody new can join. Going live locks automatically (the code is on stream). Tap a name's ✕ to remove someone.
Phone cams: friends open the Cast link (Copy cast) → their camera shows on the stream.
Select a game in the Games tab — it syncs here for everyone.
🧠 Trade Desk — is a Sprite trade fair? What to counter? Spots scam scripts.
Both players sign in → same Room code → host starts. Higher card wins · first to 5. Then Stream this duel to Twitch (this tab).
Not in a room yet — open Room tab first (or Practice vs bot).
Join a room, then host taps Start duel.
One-tap Duel scene + Go Live. Paste stream key once if Host login didn’t load it.
Live · red Go Live is enough · Studio below is optional.
Most people never change scenes. On-site games (Pong) stream automatically.
Fit zone (what Twitch focuses on)
Yellow frame = fitted picture. Outside is branded padding. Twitch always gets 1280×720.
Scenes
Best: Connect Twitch once (auto key). Backup: paste from Dashboard → Save key on this device.
One encode, two destinations (our relay fans out). Key stays on this device.
One tap → live everywhere. Add a site's Stream URL + key, flip it on. Keys stay on this device.
On-stream squad overlays (friends' phones drive these — no OBS sources)
📷 Squad cams (phones via the Cast link · tap a name to feature it big · Just Chatting scene shows them large)
One Go Live button — use the big red Start recording bar at the top. Scene, zone, mic, and stream key below all apply to that button.
Host: open Stream logs (expand panel under Start here) for Go Live debug.
Watch: twitch.tv/jojodpd7
Replay buffer OFF — turns on when you open a game or go live
Anyone in the room taps 📎 Clip on their phone (or you press C) → the last 15–30 seconds of the stream are saved here as a video — live or off-air. Tap Share / Save to send it.
External games on pure iPhone still need Streamlabs for full-screen app capture — iOS blocks that in every browser. Studio covers card games, chat, and show screens natively.
