About veadotube

veadotube mini is a downloadable PNGtuber app for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It is designed for people who want a simple way to animate a 2D character during a stream. The core use is switching between two images of a character as the user talks, with setup requiring the user to select a microphone and add a few character images.

The app supports additional images for eye blinking, animated formats such as GIF, and motion effects such as shaking or jumping while the character speaks. Users can add unlimited expression slots and switch between them with mouse, keyboard, gamepad, or MIDI controller shortcuts. It can also integrate with a Stream Deck or a custom WebSocket client to control states and push-to-talk. The page describes face tracking as a feature of the full version, which is a separate product, so it is not part of this mini app.
