ACMI was as cool as I thought it'd be - a nice break from how hectic the weekend at PAX has been. Flying home later tonight. Thanks for having me, East Coast!

Day #1 PAX update; my feet hurt. Looking forward to Day 2.

I beat the game RetroSpace without ever firing a single bullet on 1999 mode, the hardest difficulty that doesn't involve a permadeath mechanic. Here is what your inventory will look like if you simply collect ammunition instead of spending it. And no, no one asked.

Several thousand bullets organized in a Resident Evil style inventory grid.

🔴 LIVE! The Soup Group is FRACTURED as we go in for the FINAL STREAM before I fly off to Melbourne for PAX. As a reminder, this means no Friday stream, but I will be back on Monday! Finish strong! spacemantis.live

🔴 LIVE! For better or worse, I've never had a game promote so much ranting about game design. We're going to continue pushing forward with RetroSpace to see if the game will ever, at any point, force me to fire a gun. (I've also got pivots ready if the wrench life isn't it.) spacemantis.live

A screenshot of a grid-based inventory system with the title "Mantis Stash." It contains an overwhelming amount of max stack-size ammunition for all weapons in the game RetroSpace.

🔴 LIVE! They're cutting my internet 30 minutes before my usual end time. Our goal is simple; to survive a full length, six hour stream with no interruptions. ISP VS ME. spacemantis.live

Shadowman dancing with two banners scrolling past that read "DC countdown stream." There is a text message from an ISP in the center showing that Spacemantis' internet will be going out at 11:30PM.

Once more I will mention I AM GOING TO PAX! FIND THAT PLUSH! If you are someone I know and you'd like to say hi please approach me and be chill about my human form! If you are someone I don't know and you'd like to say hi that's also fine but we probably have less to talk about! See you there!

🔴 LIVE! Last stream for the Ghost Mantis sub badge and the Ghoulish Mantis watch-time badge. Begrudgingly mentioning this is the final stream to get your [Mark of Shame: Hamman Badge] from top supporter. This should be avoided at all costs. spacemantis.live

Four Left 4 Dead style nameplates featuring the soup group; Anri, Elly, Raw and Mino. They each have an "item" in place of medkits in white silhouette; a plant, a coffee, a kazoo, and a can of soup (in that order).

🔴 LIVE! You have selected: POWER DRIVE. spacemantis.live

A screenshot of The Simpsons featuring a yellow hand holding up a retro game box. It reads "L. E. Spacemantis' Putting Challenge" and features, you guessed it, Elly on the green of a golf course holding a golf club.

🔴 LIVE! Tokyo Jungle is the game that bravely asks the question "can a kangaroo kick a dinosaur to death?" If tonight works out, expect a lot more of this game. spacemantis.live

A species select screen from the game Tokyo Jungle, featuring a stat readout for the selected character. In the line up are Denba, a cardboard flamingo, a kangaroo, and Spacemantis, who is selected. The stats show only a mildly decent defence and speed, nothing else. She is listed as "5G," whatever that means.

Really excited - just got my tickets in the mail today!!!

A photo of myself holding PAX weekend tickets in a blue and yellow gradient design. The year says "2018" on the front. This does not dissuade my enthusiasm.

🔴 LIVE! 35% off gift subs for the subtember badge grind and, less importantly, the literal worst idea for a redeem I've ever had submitted in my chat. Whatever you witness tonight remember; you asked me for this. spacemantis.live

A boxed camera perspective titled "WORMCAM" showing a look at the spacemantis from down below, as if, quote, 'I am a little worm staring up at you.'

One of my all-time honours (so much so that I've made it part of my panels on Twitch) is when devs put me into their games as characters, cameos, or thanks in the credits. Specifically, I am now a playable bean in "UPG - Underground."

🔴 LIVE! Tackling the new update JUST after they turned the new zones off. spacemantis.live

The splash art for the latest update of PEAK, featuring scouts climbing a rock in the foreground while an ominous purple fog and series of threats loom on the horizon. Instead of these threats, three incredibly janky pieces of art are faded in like Mufasa from The Lion King. These are Passpartout portraits of Raw (as a real person), Mino (as a deranged scientist chef), and Anri (as a bongo cat).

🔴 LIVE! Somehow, bingo returned. spacemantis.live

A fake Goosebumps book cover titled "Heebies to Jeebie." The primary focus is on a picture of a rolling, endlessly spawning pile of low poly chip items in a videogame store. The subtitle reads "Valid: infinite per customer," and the title of the book is "The Chipocalypse."

SPACEMANTIS @spacemantis.bsky.social · 06/09/2026

It Came From The Chat! went great. Reading out your very serious and real stories was a terrifying ordeal the likes of which I'll never recover from.

🔴 LIVE! Let's riff on your scary stories, both sincere and silly, together. TONIGHT I will be reading viewer submitted stories and testing YOU (yes, YOU!) to see- DID IT REALLY COME FROM THE CHAT?! (SUBTEMBER BADGES ARE ACTIVE, GIFT SUB DISCOUNT FOR STREAM DURATION) spacemantis.live

A static-y screen featuring text that imitates an email format. The words "IT CAME FROM THE CHAT!" are overlaid in a ghoulish, goosebumps style font. The rest of the image is a fake Twitch chat with gibberish messages.

🔴 LIVE! 85% kill rate, 90% win rate, and 100% chance to drop that during the runtime of this stream. spacemantis.live

The Spacemantis is being thrown through a golden portal, beyond which is Exile's Reach - a sort of marble liminal space. She is being thrown by the flexed, powerful fists of The Judgment from Dead by Daylight.

SPACEMANTIS @spacemantis.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

"Subtember" might suck but that doesn't mean I can't do a month of events. There's some bonus badges I've tried to make as immensely available as possible for the run time as well as a punishment for the top 3 gifters this month in the form of one Hammed Man.

SPACEMANTIS @spacemantis.bsky.social · 29/08/2026

I was so excited for the new Dead by Daylight chapter that I made myself into the killer. How's my cosplay? I thought it was pretty accurate, personally!

🔴 LIVE! BE NOT AFRAID spacemantis.live

The Spacemantis edited to have four legs, faces on her knees, and two sets of large clearly handdrawn wings. She's holding a baseball bat. A piece of ripped paper covers part of the image and reads "New Killer - The Judgment - (no, seriously, they actually look like this.)"

Oops! Should have also posted this here! NEXT WEEK I'll be reading out YOUR scary, goofy, weird, supernatural, and inexplicable stories ON STREAM. Send them in email form to heebiestojeebie@gmail.com and we'll try and figure out what the heck happened.
