for the stream tonight, it's time for our weekly #indiegamedev showcase, for a night looking at newly released indie games and demos youtu.be/Y2QL2eFPBwc

in honor of our special day today, my latest video looks at the greatest video game series of all time that has made quintillions of dollars youtu.be/cPBWFjNF1Ns

I think Grime 2 has the same problem that the first one did that the beginning was good, but the middle becomes a painful slog to go through.

for the stream tonight, it's night 2 of going through Grime 2 youtu.be/UdjyNGgAgV8

Our latest Debut Devs showcase is up, with another four amazing games from first time #indiegamedev youtu.be/ty_540bWm2M and sign-ups are open for future streams forms.gle/LKR6TGiFGgHP...

for the stream tonight, we're checking out Grime 2 for another metroidvania helping youtu.be/yBzW8bRqRnU

Was feeling good today and then a migraine hit out of nowhere. :(

I finally ended up lowering the difficulty of ys 10, as it was just too much of a pain and grind on nightmare. It seems like hard is just three retries of lower enemy stats from nightmare, so I think I could have done it if I had a lot more time to spend on the game.

for the stream next, join me as I continue my play of YS 10 on nightmare difficulty youtu.be/SFaoHxXVV-0

Trying to decide between Midnight Suns, Phantom Brigade, XCOM 2, or Menace, as the next strategy game to try out for my streams.

for the stream tonight, we have a variety of games and multiplayer to play youtu.be/KveufaeJmbM

I've begun preparing my big April 1st video, which I think will outdo my previous one.

I just started playing Lorelei and the Laser Eyes and I can tell this is going to confound me.

for the stream tonight, we're going to check out Homura Hime and more of YS 10 youtu.be/QPJFzOSXGo4

we had a great stream today checking out games from first time #indiegamedev, and went long due to the games being really good. The archive will be up in a few days, and if you would like to submit a game for a future Debut Devs showcase, here are the sign-ups forms.gle/veuC3bGUaCPc...

starting up next, it's our monthly Debut Devs Showcase stream, where I'll be providing feedback on four games from first time #indiegamedev, and sign-ups are still open for future episodes youtu.be/6Z-ytCYs73k

Finally got through the first chapter of YS 10, don't make my mistake and play it on nightmare unless you have a lot of patience. Thankfully, the game features the "tune down bosses on defeat" system from Trails.

Just started YS 10, and after playing 9 on almost the highest difficulty. I think I'm going to have to drop this one down on account on them patching up every little trick introduced from 7-9, RIP flash guarding.

I finally wrapped up my favorite #indiegamedev demos of Next Fest with one more jumbo video youtu.be/U5uTz1sVqhI and 🧵

for the stream tonight, it's time for our weekly play of indie games and demos youtu.be/8Md1jb17lCI

working on my proposal for my next design book and trying to get that done by the end of the week.

I finally finished all the demos I got from next fest, now I just need to record the video... and then do my coverage of turn-based fest.

we're closing in on the end of Doom the Dark Ages and I think I'm in the disappointed crowd for it. When I'm skipping encounters because I don't want to deal with them, you know the game is not working for me.

for the stream tonight, we're going to try and finish up Doom the Dark Ages youtu.be/gTUFthv5M2s

for my latest design video, I discussed onboarding and when it can feel like the player is not in control of playing a game youtu.be/Uv74d9JYrL0 #indiegamedev

This Friday at 4 pm ET, we have our next Debut Devs Showcase stream, where I'll be playing and providing feedback on four games from first time #indiegamedev, sign-ups are open and we already have next month's set lined up forms.gle/w9svHEeTn7u2...

Working on a new design video to go up this week, and I wonder how well this thumbnail is going to explain it.

I'm about halfway done Doom the Dark Ages and feeling disappointed by it. I didn't think I would miss quick swapping weapons, but I'm starting to.

here's a late night revelation that will shock everyone, I think there may be too many games coming out to play.

starting up next on the stream as what may be our last night playing Terra Invicta youtu.be/bbAiuZezJtU

setting up next for an afternoon stream checking out Rubato youtu.be/mZr3WirDBNk

I'm still somehow going through next fest demos and I just finished trying out Three Verses which has potential as a dungeon crawler meets typing game store.steampowered.com/app/3139120/...

for the stream tonight, we're doing some gunfire reborn and then more Doom the Dark Ages youtu.be/j66AIooSfR0

for the stream tonight, we're back to playing Doom the Dark Ages youtu.be/2L9yS0nsLTA

and with tonight, I finished YS 9, all that's left is 10 that just came out and that's the entire series done in about 1 year.

first night of doom the dark ages is done and I'm not quite sure how I feel about it as someone who loved Doom Eternal.

for the stream tonight, we're wrapping up YS 9 and then starting Doom the Dark Ages youtu.be/44OhKIFq9ew

I'm trying to find any design articles or videos about games that add optional moves or abilities as a way of making a game deeper, but I don't know if there is a technical term for it.

Once again I'm blindsided by another steam sale with over 2000 games on my wishlist and no idea what to buy.

we tried out a game on stream tonight that was really good, but I can't seem to find how I even got it in the first place. I think it was a press key, but I can't find it in my emails.

we're starting up our weekly indie game showcase stream for a night looking at games, demos , and more youtu.be/Y9PsE-WH_3M

Just two more videos left in my coverage of Steam Next Fest, and the latest part of my favorite #indiegamedev demos is now up youtu.be/sTgL8lZ4c8s%...

just checked and I think I have just 2 more videos left to do on steam next fest and then I'll be done, to then jump right into the coverage of my favorite demos from turn-based Thursday fest.

for the stream tonight, we're going to wrap up our plays of Turn-Based Thursday fest and then check out Haunted Lands youtu.be/oBcToWhYdp4
