Before playing PEAK with viewers
Play with friends who agree to chat control. Climbing itself uses the mouse, so you stay in charge of grip while chat moves and jumps. Rebind keys at the Airport through Esc, Rebind Controls if you need to, then set up TikFinity to match.
PEAK: default PC keys
Default PC keyboard controls use W, A, S and D to move, Space to jump, Shift to sprint or lunge while climbing and Ctrl to crouch. E interacts, Q drops the held item or throws it if you hold Q, 1, 2 and 3 select item slots, 4 selects the backpack and R opens emotes. Hold the left mouse button against a wall to climb or use an item, and the right mouse button offers a helping hand. Check your own keybinds before copying them into TikFinity.

Why these durations suit PEAK
An 800 ms walk covers a few steps on a ledge without marching off it, and strafes and back steps stay at 400 ms. Jump, interact, drop and slot changes are short taps. Q is kept to 60 ms so it drops the item instead of winding up a throw. Sprint holds for a second on its own screen, which uses stamina and can add a lunge if you are climbing.
Connect TikFinity to PEAK
- Open TikFinity Desktop on the PC running PEAK, close the browser version and finish Setup and TikTok login. 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 complete any install prompt. Enter 800 ms; 1,000 ms = 1 second. Duplicate it for the other keys in the table.
- Put W and S on screen 1, A and D on screen 2, jump, interact, drop and slot 1 on screen 3, and sprint on screen 4. Each screen queues separately, so a sprint can run alongside movement. 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 and attach its action. Keep Repeat with gift combos off and queues short, because a backlog of walking on a narrow ledge ends badly.
- At the Airport, 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.
PEAK stream tips
- Climbing uses the left mouse button, so chat cannot climb for you. Let viewers handle the walking between climbs.
- Stamina matters on the mountain. Sprint and jump gifts during a climb can leave you with nothing left to hold on.
- The drop gift is a crowd favourite. Warn your team when you are carrying something they need.
- Pause gift events before a big jump between ledges, then switch them back on at camp.
- Short walks beat long ones on cliffs. Lower the forward hold if chat keeps walking you off edges.
Frame your PEAK stream
Keep the legend at the bottom left, clear of the stamina bar and item slots. Label Q as Drop so viewers know it is not a throw.
The key boxes use CSS, with no game artwork. Alert display time controls alerts and TTS separately from key holds.
PEAK FAQ
Can chat make me climb in PEAK?
No. Climbing is a held left mouse button against a wall, and these TikFinity actions press keyboard keys. Viewers move, jump, sprint and use items while you climb.
Why does the drop gift not throw?
Throwing needs Q held down. The 60 ms tap drops the item instead, which is safer for a gift. Raise the hold only if you want a throw gift.
Where do I change PEAK's controls?
At the Airport, open Esc and choose Rebind Controls, then match any changed key in TikFinity.
