I played the demo for Constance by @constancegame.bsky.social! Came for the metroidvania gameplay, stayed for its super-evocative visuals and storytelling, this was a lot of fun! I'm looking forward to having all my questions answered in November, but for now, enjoy the video! youtu.be/3hJAvtn7S6Q

To all the #gamedev people of BlueSky: Do you have any good recommendations for #Godot tutorials? Had multiple ideas for isometric shooters and am having trouble finding decent resources.

I played the demo for Sands Of Hope by Guateke Studios! The graphics really caught my eye, and the isometric puzzle platformer nature of it kept me invested! Game releases next week for anyone interested in playing it, but for now, enjoy the video! youtu.be/ZqzjM4xyfyQ

I streamed a bit longer to completely finish the run, and it worked out! This wasn't necessarily a #PizzaTower speedrun, but it was still a run to completion, and I'm happy I was able to do it! Thanks for watching, and tune in Thursday for more #gamedev! See ya!

Hi everyone, I made two original songs, the former made on stream last Thursday and the latter being made over the last 12 hours! Hope you enjoy them both! soundcloud.com/radicalraize... soundcloud.com/radicalraize...

I voted #PizzaTower as my favorite indie game of 2023, and I haven't played it as often as I should, so while I impatiently wait for updates on Tour de Pizza's next game, Woon, I'm back to streaming a game that I love, starting at 8PM EST! See you soon! youtu.be/0GNiIq4KLnU

I finished the #SeaOfStars DLC! There's still one thing left for me to do, but I think I'll leave that for another time. Either way, I'm glad I was able to play this, and the game is still a favorite of mine! Thanks for watching, and tune in tomorrow for #PizzaTower! See ya!

I'm closing in on the end of the #SeaOfStars DLC, I think! Either this is the last dungeon or there's gonna be more, but I know I'm gonna have some big fights, so let's get this show on the road, starting at 8PM EST! See you soon! youtu.be/5glIWLDEg9k

I didn't realize how early into fall I was in #StardewValley, and I'm only about halfway through, so no winter just yet! But next time I come back, perhaps a relationship will form! Who's to say? Either way, thanks for watching, and tune in tomorrow for the #SeaOfStars DLC! See ya!

It’s still early fall in my #StardewValley run right now. Will I make my way into winter and be unable to plant stuff, or am I going to screw around the whole time? Well, at least it’ll be fun! Stream starts at 8PM EST, see you soon! www.youtube.com/live/MWY6KhO...

I played the demo for TANUKI: Pon’s Summer by @denkiworks.bsky.social and @cr-games.bsky.social! I’d been waiting to play this for a little while and was wowed, this was such a charming and silly game and I truly enjoyed playing this one! Enjoy the video! youtu.be/bRBsuXNPm3U?...

And with that, I've finished #ResidentEvil7's main campaign and the Not A Hero DLC! What a rush! I really enjoyed both, but we're not done yet! I'll come back to play the End of Zoe DLC, so stay tuned! Thanks for watching, and tune in Sunday for #StardewValley! See ya!

This stream title is also a reach, but I'm hoping for another round of taking a flamethrower to the Molded in #RE7 tonight! Starting at the ship and losing my sanity from there, so this'll be fun, starting at 8PM EST! See you soon! youtube.com/live/Qug9PCH...

After three misses, I went back to an older file I was working on and managed to make something out of that song! I'll publish it in a day or two, I just need time to mix it, but keep an eye out for that! Thanks for watching, and tune in tomorrow for #ResidentEvil7! See ya!

Been a while since I've made #music live on stream, and either I'm going to embarrass myself or I'm going to make and publish something...probably lackluster, but who knows? Either way, I'm giving it an honest try, starting at 8PM EST! See you soon! youtu.be/Xa0ojHQOe5s

I focused more on the pro goals this stream and got the majority of them without using cheats, so...progress? I'm not sure what I could do for a future stream of this specific #TonyHawk game, but if anyone has ideas, let me know! Thanks for watching, and tune in tomorrow for #BanjTooie! See ya!

A friend bought me this game on Switch 2 under the condition that I stream it for them at least once, so yeah, I’m down to clown in #TonyHawk! These games were a big part of my childhood, and I’m looking forward to shredding, starting at 8PM EST! See you soon! www.youtube.com/live/EhlqhvC...

Whereas the first #WindWaker stream I did was subdued, this stream was completely off-the-rails, and I loved every minute! This series is going to be 100% neurotic compared to my first time, and I'm looking forward to next time! Thanks for watching, and tune in tomorrow! See ya!

The last #WindWaker stream didn't go so well due to laptop latency, but this time should (and will) go better! I'm starting from Dragon Roost Island and will hopefully get to the end of Forbidden Woods! Let's see if that happens, starting at 8PM EST! See you soon! www.youtube.com/live/1FTIPto...

It’s like that on YouTube right now as well, but you’re definitely right. All the questioning of why my viewership went down is making me go crazy compared to last year, so I def need to relax a bit more.

After my physical copy arrived earlier than expected, I'm set to stream the beginning of #DonkeyKongBananza! I'm going to see how far I can get on-stream, then probably not play it live again unless people demand it, but let's see how this goes starting at 8PM EST! See you soon! youtu.be/kxGUHYdxVKY
