"3D" Pixel Canvas on Twitch

I see submissions of people trying a creative take on Twitch here every now and then (mostly using AI or procedural content), so I thought I might as well post a little project I did two days ago. Maybe it inspires someone to do something in a similar fashion. Inspired by things like DrawBall, r/place or the recent rise of Wplace I decided to do something similar, but as a stream on Twitch. And I took the word "canvas" quite literally. You can draw single pixels using the chat. How it works exactly is in the channel description. Well, that's basically all to it. https://www.twitch.tv/canvasplace If anything is noteworthy about it it's probably that I made this using Blender and Godot, which are both excellent pieces of software that are frequently featured on HN. The Twitch integration I've done through Twitch' recent EventSub Websocket API, entirely in GDscript. Repo soon! That's it. If this gives someone else a couple of seconds of entertainment it was probably worth the evening I spent on it already. :) Since it's user generated content (which WILL need moderation) the stream will be offline at around Central European sleepy times. It will be shut down completely eventually if it dies out, or I put in more effort if there's people interested in it in the long run. Either works for me.
