“We’re seeing a demand for more flexibility when it comes to how people engage and grow their communities online. While existing streaming platforms are designed to only support one person performing for a single audience, we’re building a way for creators to involve each other’s followers and grow together.” said Yaprak DeCarmine, CEO of Game Jolt.

Livestream concerts come as the latest announcement from Game Jolt as yet another publicized use for the feature, following a conference-style event, “Girls in Games”, in partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS) for Games. Nearly 10,000 viewers tuned in during the stream to receive live mentorship from executive speakers from Electronic Arts, Netflix, Warner Bros. and Sony.
