Abstract: Viewers of a computer game can send reactions such as graphic-based reactions to another person playing the computer game. The reactions are then used to trigger in-game power-ups such as health power-ups and character ability power-ups. In some examples, meeting certain criteria for the reactions may trigger the power-up, such as a threshold number of reactions being received within a threshold period of time and/or a particular sequence of different reactions being received.

Abstract: Game-specific screen share features can be provided to viewers of a video game livestream. The viewers can control a themed or adaptive cursor presented to the gamer during gameplay, and can also provide themed or adaptive sentiment-based reactions to the gamer during gameplay. The cursor and reactions can then be surfaced to the gamer a number of ways and can even be tied back into the game execution environment itself.
