Aw, I'll be out for a walk at the time. Will you be streaming for long?

Not sure -- an hour or so?  I'll do this more than once, though, and will upload the streams to youtube afterward.

Hey Guys!

Chris will be pushing his stream back to 2:30. Just a quick thing he has to get real first before hand.

Thank you!

That was fun.

Opened your save. My computer wept. Switched to the ST planet and ship icons filled my screen, so I zoomed out. Game told me that it _was_ totally zoomed out. You could seriously walk from one end of the inner grav well to the other without getting your feet cold.

Well, that happened.


Blasted Twitch.

I expect that kind of thing from Youtube (every 5 minutes), not Twitch....


Sure was entertaining up to that point.

Thanks for the stream, too bad Twitch died but I got what I came there for, I've never seen the game before and was curious to see how it plays. I was cautious not to repeat Bionic Dues again which turned out to not be my cup of tea, but I liked what I saw here. So thanks again Chris. :)

Very interesting to watch.
Funny to see someone worse than me in Starward Rogue  :P

Thanks for watching, everybody!  And I'm glad I could entertain.  I did hilariously poorly, but I... well, the sun was in my eyes, you know.  Too bright.  Plus, I think maybe it's slightly warm in here?  Definitely too warm for peak playing performance.  It's also a little cold, and was a bit dark.

Anyhow, I hope to do it again soon, next time with more warning.  I'll do some youtube recordings as well.

Cheers!
Chris

Also, yes, definitely stream that again at some point, Chris.

Aside from the Twitchsplosion, that was.... definitely very entertaining.


Do you intend on doing any further stuff on Youtube at all?   I'm going to try to get a video up myself tonight.  Probably.  Gonna try to fix the things I've got on Mantis first though.   Which are kind of following a theme...  3 of them are about Labyrinth, 2 are about the Charger (surprise!), and apparantly one of the "BlindLady" enemies doesnt do anything (oops... I think I know how that one happened).

I found it interesting to see how people react to the frogger room.

It's really fun to see how people react to your stuff, isn't it?  I remember being really entertained by that back in the day.  It's interesting how "you get used to anything" and now that doesn't really register for me, and I just worry if they're having enough fun or will run into bugs or whatever.   So I don't really watch other people playing my stuff unless it's in-person usually.
