After captivating a bigger audience than normal when you accidentally kill the wrong character on stream, you discover an opportune strategy to grow your following: play EVIL to appeal to a wider audience.

Stream Evil is a research-creation project funded by SSHRC and the mLab that investigates tandem play: playing single-player games with multiple people. Research into tandem play shows that players often make different choices, take bigger risks, and/or lean into spectacle when playing together. Consequently, Stream Evil is a game developed to explore how audience feedback can shape moral decision-making during gameplay.

The team, Josh Spatzner, Jules Maier-Zucchino, Justin Roberts, Mia Consalvo, and Beck de Heuvel, have been working on this project for two years and are excited to finally share it with fellow TAG members! Please join us for a launch party in which we will finally publish the game and have it available for members at TAG to play it.

Join as Friday January 16th at 3:30 across from TAG in the Milieux Atelier (EV 11.425) as we celebrate the launch of Stream Evil!
