A few (ok a lot) of people have asked how I did the whole twitch implementation for Tribal Tension and my stream. It's pretty easy and can be done without actually knowing anything about networking because "kbjwes77" has done all the heavy lifting for you.

Here's a video tutorial on setting up and using his github project to work with just twitch chat, say things to a chat, recieve info from a chat, just by calling his ace scripts.
