twitch-plays-doom is a Python Twitch IRC->restful-doom proxy to control doomguy with a staggering 8 second delay.
The project was Saturday night's 'I wonder if I can make this work' session. Since it's been live there has been a team of four successfully make it to half way through E01M01.
I've since added godmode to the chat (you can guess the command).
This was fun, hope others get some enjoyment out of it.
