I cannot describe how badly I want to play in Mike Tomlin's Minecraft server.

Update: It's still happening! Two hours and zero views. For a Short that means it's not getting pushed to any feeds whatsoever, including subscribers. Also the copyright scan has been stuck since last night so maybe the AI is having trouble scanning it and categorizing it? I WILL FIND OUT!

I screenshot of the Blocks for Babies short showing zero views, which means YouTube is not pushing it to any feeds including subscribers.

YouTube absolutely will not push my Blocks for Babies Short out to anyone at all. It's become my current obsession. I have to know what the algorithm cannot stand about this video. Reuploading tomorrow morning with changes some streamer friends suggested. I will break you YouTube.

This is 100% a joke people made on Newgrounds in the mid-2000's. Anyway play indie games.

My wife asked me if I had any ideas for what to use for a theme for our Christmas decorations, which she promptly rejected. Well baby if you didn't want a Like a Dragon themed Christmas house why did you ask???

Oh my God is it already time for LudoNarraCon?! And just look at the game list this year! It's a who's who of indie games! Great games like Desktop Explorer, overlooked gems like Relooted, wishlisted darlings like Penguin Colony!

Covered this game at PAX last year and the strides they made up to that show was incredible. I can't wait to see what they got cooked up for this demo.

There's four games left in the MLB season and somehow the Seattle Mariners have the chance to win the AL West with a 78-84 record.

$500 dollar goal MET for @fredhutch.org Raids for Research! Thank you all for donating to such a wonderful cause and for unlocking the Lance S. Pumpkins horror stream in October. No thanks for trying to use sounds to scare me and then succeeding in distracting me for a jump scare. #forthehutch

Holy crap ya'll showed UP for HAWKEN! Thank you so much for the good times and for raising $100 bucks before we started the horror streaming proper tomorrow night at 9 PM PST. I am not looking forward to streaming without lights and an emotional support plushie though.

Wait a minute were people not Macklemore fans? Like I'm always biased towards my Seattle peeps but his music's been solid. No Bad Days is a legit banger. Also CEOs personally calling in to get you kicked off tours because you called for peace is, like, the coolest thing a musician can do.

It is an honor to once again be an Ambassador for the Stream for Fred Hutch program. This program has been growing so fast. The new Ambassadors just prove the embarrassment of riches we've gotten in talented streamers in just a year. Raids for Research is gonna be the best yet. Let's beat cancer.

It was my second year as an official PAX content creator and I'm still blown away by how absurdly talented these devs are. I also got to meet fans who told me how much they loved my streams and even bought games I recommended in One Minute Steam Reviews! Videos soon, but tonight, rest. #paxwest

Meetings and interviews are done, so I played one that's just for me. That shoulder button combat style takes a lot of getting used to, not sure how much I like it yet. Try to play it like Yakuza and you will get demolished. #PAXWest

If you're looking for a last stop for PAX, go to the FMV room at Summit and check out A Rum Case in Fogtown. They have their whole filming setup now for their live action puppet game and it's SO impressive. I fell in love with the game after playing the demo. Give it a shot. #paxwest

If you're at PAX and love yourself a little surreal mystery, don't sleep on The Final Cut of Lilith Cunningham. It's got a lot of promise and the demo is worth your previous con time. I'll post a video about it later but for now play it for yourself! #paxwest

This is one of three PAX Rising games I'm personally previewing at PAX West. Keep an eye on this here BlueSky to see when the footage goes up! Hoping to have some Shorts up at least for each game Friday.

Interesting! I did not call Project Red being a hybrid live action game mystery (with cork boards no less). Definitely have to check this one out at PAX.

It's very important to test your mics before a big event like PAX West. Luckily I have the finest assistant in the business helping me!
