One chain. One chat. Long way down.
Viewers Control Chained Together on TikTok LIVE: Complete Tutorial for Beginners
Chained Together keyboard controls on PC: W, A, S and D move, Space jumps, Left Shift sprints, E uses or interacts and the mouse turns the camera. Check your keys in the game's settings before you set up gifts.
Chained Together already makes every jump a group decision. Letting chat press the buttons adds one more person to blame. Gifts move, jump and sprint your climber while your partners try to keep the chain from pulling everyone off the tower.

Before playing Chained Together with viewers
This guide is for the Steam game by Anegar Games, not the Roblox experience with a similar name. You are chained to other players, so get your partners' agreement before chat touches the controls, and keep the camera on your own mouse.
Chained Together: default PC keys
Default PC keyboard controls use W, A, S and D to move, Space to jump, Left Shift to sprint and E to use or interact. The mouse turns the camera. Check your own keybinds in the game's settings before copying them into TikFinity.

Why these durations suit Chained Together
Platforms are small and the chain punishes overshooting, so forward moves stay at 700 ms and side steps at 300 ms. Jump is a 60 ms tap. Sprint sits on its own screen at 1,200 ms, enough for a run-up without a long dash towards the edge.
Connect TikFinity to Chained Together
- Open TikFinity Desktop on the PC running Chained Together, close the browser version, finish Setup and TikTok login, and capture the game in LIVE Studio or OBS.
- In Actions & Events, create an action with Simulate keystrokes set to W, turn on game compatibility mode and finish any install prompt. Enter 700 ms; 1,000 ms = 1 second. Duplicate it for S, A, D, Space, E and Left Shift.
- Put W and S on screen 1, A and D on screen 2, jump and use on screen 3, and sprint on screen 4. Separate queues let a sprint overlap a forward move for a proper run-up. Add each screen URL as a Link source in LIVE Studio or a Browser source in OBS.
- Create a Sending a specific gift event for each gift. Keep Repeat with gift combos off and allow only one or two waiting actions per screen, so a backlog does not drag the whole team off a ledge.
- On the starting ground, press the play icon on the forward action and click into the game within 5 seconds. The Event Simulator does not press keys, so test each action with its play button.
Chained Together stream tips
- Agree a code word with your partners for pausing gifts before a hard jump.
- Jump gifts are the most dramatic input here. Make them cheap so chat can send them often.
- Sprint gifts are risky near edges. Pause them on narrow sections.
- Watch the chain. If a partner is already hanging, a sudden move from chat can pull you both down.
- When the team falls a long way, clear the queues before you start climbing again.
Frame your Chained Together stream
Put the legend at the bottom so the climb above stays visible. Show whose screen viewers are controlling if your partners also stream.
The key boxes use CSS, with no game artwork. Alert display time controls alerts and TTS separately from key holds.
Chained Together FAQ
Is this guide for the Roblox Chained Together?
No. It covers the Steam game by Anegar Games. Roblox experiences with similar names use their own controls.
Can chat control my partners too?
No. TikFinity presses keys on your PC, so viewers only control your climber.
Why can't chat turn the camera?
The camera follows the mouse, and these actions press keyboard keys. Keep the camera yourself so viewers can see the next platform.
