Gamecast

Saito’s P2P platform introduces Gamecast, a feature that combines secure cryptographic gaming with decentralized livestreaming. This feature integrates Saito’s long established Arcade with the recently launched Swarmcasting service.

Saito users are now able to both play and livestream any game on the Saito Arcade – opening the door for all manner of content creation around the arcade. Not only is this an opportunity for Saito regulars to build an audience while using the platform, but an avenue to onboard new users and teach games like Twilight Struggle or the soon to release Here I Stand.

It’s Easy

Gamecasting could hardly be easier. Unlike Twitch or YouTube, where OBS, and an account each have to be meticulously configured, setup and registered. Saito Apps requires no registration, and starting a Gamecast takes just a few clicks.

1 .Start playing any game on The Arcade

2. Game Menu -> Share -> Cast game

Casting recently added YouTube support, so you can amplify your P2P Cast to YouTube and also save that livestream as a video. To see how to simulcast on YouTube and other information about Swarmcasting, consult the wiki page.
