During a run, the equivalent of a season episode, the channel’s format is fairly simple. A viewer simply has to input the command into the chat window, and that command is translated to the game. For example, if one user were to type 'up' into the chat, the character onscreen would move up. User commands are generally shown as a reverse-waterfall like scroller situated to the right hand side of the frame. The username of each command contributor is shown alongside it. | During a run, the equivalent of a season episode, the channel’s format is fairly simple.

The control scheme varies depending on which platform is being used. For example, when playing games designed for the [[Game Boy]] or [[Game Boy Color]], only 8 commands (up, down, left, right, a, b, start and select) are accepted. When playing games designed for the [[Nintendo DS]] and [[Nintendo 3DS]], these commands are expanded to the touchscreen (users input with pairs of three-digit coordinates) and other controls (such as the 3DS's Circle Pad). | The control scheme varies depending on which platform is being used.
