The trigger warming made me laugh untill I played the game. Then I realised it was needed! If you made this into a game like twitch marbles, and made it accessible, this would be a great hit for streamers. 
Very simple but very unique gameplay! 

Developer

Jea, i am maybe a bit too cautious but it's better than risking it.

Do you know by any chance how these streamgames work? In my mind its:

The game with greenscreen background, running in the streamers pc, somehow monitoring the chat and spawn in marbles by chat commands. Or do I use Twitch APIs?

Submitted

Hmm I have no idea how the back end works sorry, but it is probably something to do with the twitch API. I don't think you have to look at the green screen background, just find a way a streamer can connect their account for you to read their chat. OR an easier option would be to make a web-app/twitch add-ons where the chatters can vote there.

I would also add 2 more options to the game, I think 3 options is too little. And a last thing you really need is live feedback. It would be way more exciting if you are a chatter and you're waiting to vote till the end, because you want to pick strategically, the biggest pile will not always be the best pile. But eventually everyone will wait till the end so it turns into pure chaos anyway :)

This needs twitch integration with 300+ players xD Kind of a fun concept!!  Well done!

Dammn I can't win xdd.
There's a cool multiplayer possibility I wonder if you just handled it with random placed elements?
Overall it could become a cool implementation for full mobile game :)

Developer

Jeah, its kinda perfectly balanced with 33,3% chance to win, for one player it probably feels unrewarding xdd

But the goal was improving my skills on shaders and showing the concept of a multiplayer game. But i definetly need to add some non-random elements :D
