====== Backseat Gaming Protocols ======

**Backseat Gaming Protocols** was a special collaborative livestream on 12th May 2020, the fifth anniversary of Invisible, Inc.'s release. The event was streamed live on Twitch in two sessions, totalling 10 hours; the recordings can be [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSzYc9hNynCUVUFqU-wVim2YJz0iOx2Pf|viewed on YouTube]].

Seven players from the community took part, each controlling the actions of just one agent:

  * [[twitch>alpacalypsea|alpacalypsea (aka panth3reon)]] as [[:agents:Banks]]
  * [[twitch>AndrewKay|Andrew Kay]] as [[:agents:Monst3r]]
  * [[twitch>chistosoloco]] as [[:agents:Decker]]
  * [[twitch>Hekateras]] as [[:agents:Central]]
  * [[twitch>SuperStorm_8]] as [[:agents:Shalem 11]]
  * [[twitch>WhiteWizard42]] as [[:agents:Derek]]
  * [[twitch>wodzu_93]] as [[:agents:Internationale]]

We beat the game on [[:modes:Expert Plus]] difficulty, using the [[:mods:Agent Reserve]] mod and debug-spawning [[:missions:Detention Center]] missions to rescue enough agents for everyone.

===== Rules =====

  * Players take it in turns to move their agent, in order.
  * A player cannot perform additional actions after taking their turn, even if they have remaining [[:AP]].
  * Players should not negotiate strategy, though they may express their wish that another player act in a particular way on their turn.
  * The current player also decides how to use [[:Incognita]] or hacked [[:drones]] for the duration of their turn.
  * Decisions about [[:skill|skill upgrades]] and other purchases outside of missions are determined by turn-based [[wp>rock paper scissors]].
