Votan v1.0.3

Votan turns YouTube live chat into a multiplayer RPG overlay for streamers.
This release is a single self-contained binary — no install, no extra files.

Run it

Windows — download Votan_<ver>_windows_amd64.exe and double-click.
SmartScreen may warn on an unsigned binary → More info → Run anyway.

macOS — download the build for your chip (darwin_arm64 = Apple Silicon,
darwin_amd64 = Intel), then in Terminal:

chmod +x Votan_darwin
xattr -d com.apple.quarantine Votan_darwin
./Votan_darwin

(The binary is unsigned, so macOS Gatekeeper quarantines it until you clear the flag.)

The app opens its admin panel automatically. In OBS, add a Browser Source
pointing at http://127.0.0.1:8080, then enter your YouTube video id, OBS
WebSocket address/password and an admin token in the panel.

Highlights

• Single-file build — overlay + admin UI embedded in the binary
• Graceful shutdown, dependency-injected engine, async persistence
• Loopback-only bind; constant-time admin token check; structured logging
