Hey, indie #gamedev people!

#SteamNextFest is upon us once again in a few weeks time. Anyone got any demos going up as part of the event? Let me know, I’d love to try your game!

Thanks for your interest!

Oh boy did I lock in for this one! I beat Phantom, Trobbio, that accursed High Halls wave battle, and Lace! I'm in a really good spot for the next #Silksong stream, so stay tuned! Thanks for watching, and tune in Thursday for more game dev! See ya!

I grinded a bit in #Silksong after the last stream, so the focus today is on Bilewater, The Mist, and a boss encounter in Whispering Vaults. I'm looking forward to what else I encounter, too! Stream starts at 8PM EST, see you soon! www.youtube.com/live/JTTCjtc...

Next time I play #Bendy and the Dark Revival, I pick back up having become queen of the sewer people and making a tiny Bendy my friend and ally! This turned out to be great fun, and I'm looking forward to the next one! Thanks for watching, and tune in tomorrow for more #Silksong! See ya!

After a year of waiting, it's finally time to play #Bendy and the Dark Revival! I streamed Ink Machine last year and loved it, and I played the Boris spinoff, so now it's time for the sequel, just in time for spooky season! Stream starts at 8PM EST, see you soon! youtube.com/live/iqpnrSM...

I see now why people who have played #OuterWilds love it so much! I had a blast playing this and had so much fun making new discoveries, and I can't wait to continue the playthrough! Thanks for watching, and tune in tomorrow for #Bendy and the Dark Revival! See ya!

I picked up #OuterWilds on a recent sale, having always wanted to try it, and we’re in the season of horror, so let’s do it! I know nothing about this game, so please no spoilers. Let’s see how this goes, starting at 8PM EST! See you soon! www.youtube.com/live/gdrn2-a...

I tried the demo for Ghost Vanguard by Wombo Combo Games! This game turned out to be a lot of fun, and I really liked the combo systems you could do! Go show the Kickstarter some love if you can, but for now, enjoy the video! youtu.be/fYri88mtZ5U

Apparently being too trigger-happy in #ResidentEvil2 will cost you down the line. Learned that the hard way when Mr. X showed up. Either way, this was fun! Bad for my heart, but fun! Thanks for watching, and tune in Sunday for #OuterWilds! See ya!

The first zombie game of the season! I haven’t played #ResidentEvil2 Remake in so long, but now’s as good a time to play it as any! Looking forward to a spooky time, starting at 8PM EST! See you soon! www.youtube.com/live/ftunOrp...

And with that, I've finished more Unity tutorials! I admit I almost completely crashed out when something wasn't working close to the end there, which sets the tone of how more of these are gonna go LMAO! Thanks for watching, and tune in tomorrow for #ResidentEvil2! See ya!

Last week, I started (re-)learning Unity. This week is more or less the same, just continuing to learn so I can do more and better(?) #gamedev things. It’ll pay off, trust me! Stream starts at 8PM EST, see you soon! www.youtube.com/live/siZsqkI...

I played the demo for Kingdom of Night by Friends of Safety and @dangen-ent.bsky.social! I really liked how smooth the spritework was, and the gameplay was also pretty fun once it picked up! Can’t wait to play more, but for now, enjoy the video! youtu.be/VDjvfG6UcZQ?...

So lesson learned: DON'T play #DeadSpace without installing that game on an SSD. In lieu of that, I also tried #LookOutside, and I had a fun time with that! Looking forward to next time for both of those! Thanks for watching, and tune in Thursday for more #gamedev! See ya!

Pause & Effect @pauseandeffect.bsky.social · 7d

I’ve left off #DeadSpace remake for far too long. Haven’t touched it since April, but I knew this would be the perfect spooky season game, so I’m gonna jump back in, starting at 8PM EST! See you soon! www.youtube.com/live/HgqCUTS...

The #CrowCountry "speedrun" went about as well as you'd expect, and in the time I had remaining, I checked out Saeko: Giantess Dating Sim, which was fun, but spooky! Very fitting for the season, though! Thanks for watching, and tune in tomorrow for #DeadSpace! See ya!

Pause & Effect @pauseandeffect.bsky.social · 8d

It's still spooky season and #CrowCountry is a perfectly speedrun-able game for the occasion! I named this game my favorite indie of 2024 and have played it a bunch since then, so I'm going to speed through it with utter reverence, starting at 8PM EST! See you soon! youtu.be/aotnLELQOF8

Well, I finally did it, I built the Cyclops in #Subnautica! Next time I come back to this (probably in a month), I'll dive deep and try to further my progress into the Lava Reef Zone! Thanks for watching, and tune in tomorrow for #CrowCountry! See ya!

I put some distance between me and #Subnautica after the Krafton incident, but now that spooky season is here, I kinda want to come back to it at least once. Maybe twice, if we’re lucky! Either way, stream starts at 8PM EST, see you soon! www.youtube.com/live/GMYtNpq...

Thanks for subscribing, Linus, I appreciate your time!

And yeah, I can for sure check out your game! Haven’t played a text adventure game in a long time, so I hope you’re able to put up with me when the video goes up!

Pause & Effect @pauseandeffect.bsky.social · 10d

I played the Duskfade demo by Weird Beluga and @fireshinegames.bsky.social! I came for the PS2 vibes enjoyed myself! I had one or two issues here and there, but I think that’s more on the Unreal Engine side than anything. Either way, great game! Enjoy the video! youtu.be/q18JIvAM4TU?...

I had a lot of internet and PS Vita scuff this stream, and my thumb hurts from using my d-pad so much, but it was nice to revisit #CastlevaniaSOTN! I'll stream this a few more times for October, so stay tuned! Thanks for watching, and tune in Sunday for #Subnautica! See ya!

Wouldn’t be spooky season without some #Castlevania! I haven’t played this game in 20-ish years, and my SotN ROM on my Vita TV still works, so I’m jumping back in for a good time, starting at 8PM EST! See you soon! www.youtube.com/live/yicX7nF...

I was worried for nothing! Unity is just as intuitive as I remember, and for the first time I felt like I was actually having fun learning to use the engine all over again! I'll continue the tutorials next week! Thanks for watching, and tune in tomorrow for #CastlevaniaSOTN! See ya!

For spooky season, I’ve worked up the nerve to finally try the #gamedev thing I’ve dreaded most: Learn. Unity. I just have to rip the band-aid and get it over with, starting tonight at 8PM EST! See you soon! www.youtube.com/live/2P4okLF...
