In early January, I started work on a project that I'm calling my Kaizo Beginnerthon, where I'm playing through every beginner(Advanced and lower) difficulty kaizo romhack of SMW that's on SMW Central. Today, I've played for just over 101 hours and I've completed 73 out of 327.

Check out a new trailer for The Bold Bogey, showing off loads of new additions to the game and a hot new track from our composer Revolug! www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlRf... #indiegames #gaming #gamedev

Get excited, we're doing one of these again. I've been busy and have some fun stuff to show off. See you Sunday night!

I finished playing as much Donkey Kong: Bananza as I want to. 776/777 bananas collected. What an absolutely incredible game, I played somewhere around 39 hours and thoroughly enjoyed my time with it.

Because I just played Jordan's ONE, a romhack with non-standard graphics.

I'm very far behind, but I'm making my way through creating videos for all of the RomHack Races that I participate in. Here's a short that I just finished, It's Week 205 from August 2022, Mario Mountain by redfeatherz, an SMB2 level.

I've been putting it off for weeks, but Paper Robot finally has a preview trailer. This is meant to give people a quick look at what sort of game I'm building, in an easily sharable package. Still plenty of work to be done, but it IS getting done. A million tiny things. youtu.be/tt7ia1MX9xs

Le plume has now been submitted. I am very excited, nervous, thrilled, etc. It was a very humbling journey and I'm super grateful for all the help I've been given through it all. Fingers crossed moderation goes well. It's here for those who are interested : www.smwcentral.net?p=section&a=...

Yep. Release is imminent! #smw #kaizo

On Sunday February 23rd at 11:30 AM EST there is going to be a blind kaizo race between @germdove.bsky.social and @donaldwd518.bsky.social of a level I made for them, it's going to be a good time and I can't wait you should follow them so you don't miss it

Found this open source tool that will allow you to download vods and clips in bulk. Their queue option seems to work fine github.com/lay295/Twitc... check it out and share the love if you can. Man, this is fucked up really

twitch.uservoice.com/forums/92842... here's a uservoice post telling twitch not to do this in the kindest words i could muster so we can yell at them from all sides

Ok well I'm very behind on my video-making projects, and Twitch Highlights have been my primary method of storing footage for me to use later. I'm now completely up to date on highlighting the previous month's worth of streams I want to keep, couldn't have made the highlights tomorrow.

❌Medicare for All ❌Banning congressional stock trading ❌Getting money out of politics ❌Voting rights ❌Reproductive rights ❌College for All ❌Universal childcare ❌Criminal justice reform ❌Housing for All ✅Banning TikTok

Feeling kinda doomy and gloomy about a very likely loss of TikTok. Being on that platform has meant alot for me over the years, it certainly helped me find my voice as a creator.

We were talking about launch games for Switch 2, I'm calling it now, we're gonna see a sequel to ARMS and it'll be called LEGS

Before and after. As you can see, after hours of work, we have achieved "left-facing" state.

It was a good and fun thing last year to say "I'm going to beat these specific romhacks this year!", it pushed me to do Casio and Fly Me To The Stars. In 2025 I will beat poop jump, The Team Shell Hack, Sheffy 2, Cubes Kaizo 5, JokerShellOK, Various Dragons(🟩,🟨,🟥,🐉🪰) and Thumbshredder's dad

I'm super proud of how my streams have gone this year, this is the first time I've had an actual streaming schedule, and I've even mostly been able to follow it! I also have made YouTube partner this year, which was one of my big goals.

I started Fly Me To The Stars last night, got through 2 levels even though I had some technical difficulties. I was as surprised as anyone that I got the first midway. www.twitch.tv/germdove/cli... Going to play more today before the RomHack Race and after I do a short cooking stream(cheesesteaks!)

I played though Heat Wave last night. For a first romhack, will___ knocked it out of the park. The number of times I was introduced to new obstacles and said "thanks, I hate it" was off the charts, but every cursed obstacle was still fun to play with. Gave me alot of interesting ways to wait too!

I had a great time cooking on stream today, ended up with probably the best looking turkey I've ever made

I took a stab at making a starter pack for the SMW community. If you know someone I've missed, let me know so I can add them. Also thank you for 69 followers. I'm glad you are all here. go.bsky.app/AF5xo1b

SEPARATE WAYS REMASTERED COMING SOON #SMW

I had an incredible stream yesterday, really felt in the zone at the beginning. I beat Perchance's SMB3 Mario, Pardoner Fennel from Casio and both GPW3 bowsers back to back in under 25 minutes total. www.twitch.tv/videos/23050... Just felt like sharing.
