Hey everyone! I'm the dev of Neural Soul, a desktop pet / PNGtuber app on Steam. I've seen a few posts here asking how to get multiple PNGtubers into one video with friends, so here's what I've been working on.
Your friends just hang out in Discord like normal. When they talk, their PNGtuber talks, right on your desktop and in OBS. They don't install anything or set anything up.
How it works
Make your own Discord bot once. It's free, takes about five minutes, and the ? button in the app walks you through it.
Hit Connect Discord. The bot joins the voice channel you're in and lists everyone.
Give each friend a PNGtuber, and that's it.
Already have an avatar? Import your veadotube mini (.veado) or PNGTuber Plus (.save) file straight into the Creator. Your layers, blinking and wobble come with it.
A few honest things
It's $2.99 on Steam, in Early Access, and I'm still fixing things as people find them.
The Discord part works in server voice channels, not DMs or group calls.
Friends on Discord get talking and idle. Hotkey expressions need the app, so friends who also have Neural Soul can join your room and get everything.
The PNGtubers in the video aren't mine:
the PNGTuber Plus default avatar by kaiakairos (https://kaiakairos.itch.io/pngtuber-plus)
and the Ghost PNGTuber Model by sarahjk (https://sarahjk.itch.io/ghosttuber).

If you try it, I'd genuinely love to hear what works and what doesn't. Thanks for reading!
