Silk Worm on Twitch — competition and audience

Silkworm is a classic horizontally-scrolling shoot-em-up. The main difference between this game and many other side-scrolling shoot-em-ups is that you will be on land as well as in the air. The first player would play as a helicopter, but if a second player joins the game, they would play as a jeep. Both players would have to protect each other as well as themselves. After a certain number of kills, a "goose" helicopter would form on the screen. If the players managed to destroy it they would get a weapon's powerup. This would go on throughout the entire game, and a "goose" could appear even during the fight with the end-of-level baddie.

Should I stream Silk Worm on Twitch?

0/100 · Closed off· 151 viewers per streamer on paper

Probably not. The only English stream here holds all 151 English viewers — once you take it out there is nothing left to reach.

The only English stream here holds all 151 English viewers. There is nothing left over for a second.

Almost nobody here is available to you — either a couple of streams hold the room, or nobody is watching in English, or the category is empty, or you would be buried.

This reads the room as it is right now — how much of the English-speaking audience is reachable and where you would land — not how many followers you would gain. That depends on you.

Where to buy

All plain links straight to the official stores. Some will become affiliate links later, and they’ll be marked with a ♥ when they are — you’ll always be able to tell, and the unmarked ones will always be there.

Is Silk Worm too saturated on Twitch?

Not crowded, but not open either. Only 1 person is streaming Silk Worm, and the one English stream holds all 151 English viewers — so the room is quiet because that audience is already committed, not because it is waiting for you.
