The Classrooms

The entities can hear you: chat makes noise with gifts to draw them in, unleashes Ganglers, Smiley or the Demon Dog, or buys you silence and a breather.

A GIFT'S JOURNEY

How a gift reaches the game

Four stops, in under a second.

  1. A viewer sends a gift

    From TikTok, Twitch, Kick, YouTube or Starvios: a gift, a follow, likes or a chat command.

  2. OverInteractive

    Receives the event, checks your active profile for the matching effect and sends it.

  3. The Classrooms mod

    The app installs a mod loader (BepInEx) and the OverInteractive mod in the game folder. The mod feeds sounds into the same channel as your microphone and uses the game's own entities.

  4. The Classrooms

    The sound plays at your position and nearby entities hear it as if you had yelled. An on-screen notice says who sent it.

STEP BY STEP

Getting started

Everything happens from the game's status bar, at the bottom of the app.

  1. 1

    Detect The Classrooms

    The app finds it in your Steam library. If it doesn't show up, press «Set up» in the bar below and pick the folder that holds The Classrooms.exe.

  2. 2

    Prepare the mod

    With the game closed, in the wizard's «Prepare the mod» step press «Install» on the BepInEx loader and then on the OverInteractive mod. No original file is touched.

  3. 3

    Open The Classrooms

    Press «Launch game» in the wizard or the bar, or open it from Steam. The first time after installing it takes longer to start: the loader prepares its files once.

  4. 4

    Wait for «Connected»

    At the main menu the bar below switches to «Connected». Effects apply as soon as you enter a level.

  5. 5

    Choose what each gift does

    In «Profiles» create the example one in a click or build your own: each gift, follow or chat command fires the sound or effect you pick.

EFFECTS

What your chat can do

Each effect is assigned to a gift, a follow, likes or a chat command.

Sounds the entities hear

Screams, roars, a child's laugh, shattering glass, slamming doors, explosions, a fire alarm, barking dogs and crying babies. They play at your position and draw entities in like your voice.

Entities

Spawns Ganglers, Manglers, Smiley, Screecho, The Tenant, the Centipede, the Demon Dog, Wyrms, dolls and more, hunting with their own AI. It can also send them all after you or speed them up.

Help

Freeze, slow down or lure the entities away, god mode, speed boost, super jump and silent steps.

Chaos

The game's own effects: shrink, grow, slow down, zoomies, rocket jump and the mystery gumball.

IMPORTANT

Before you go live

Which sounds they hear

Entities hear the game's sound commands and «Custom Sound», which lets chat send your own audio: it plays on your stream and reaches them at the same time, so you only hear it once. Each sound command has its own reach (70 m by default, 10 to 150 m); your voice keeps its normal range, about 23 m. The rest of the app's audio (alerts, TTS, disrupts) doesn't reach them.

Only inside a level

Effects act on the level: at the menu or while the level is generating they wait for the run to start. App audio that plays outside a level doesn't reach the game.

The first launch is slower

The first time you open the game after installing, the mod loader generates its files and takes much longer than usual. Don't close it: after that it starts as normal.

They spawn far away

Spawned entities appear 40 to 90 meters away by default (each command has a minimum and maximum distance, 10 to 200 m), at the map points where the game spawns them, and look for you with their own AI. A noise brings them much sooner.

FAQ

No. Chat sounds go into the same channel as the microphone, so the entities hear them even with your mic off.
