Arty's streams

[Crane]

I would dare ask if it's possible for you to stream your attempts at solving the contest #15 levels instead. Some good levels in this one, although Rule 1 is a bit daunting!

[Colorful Arty]

I absolutely will stream those levels eventually, but I'd like to wait more beforehand. This way, people get a chance to seal obvious backroutes and people get a chance to solve them on their own before watching someone else (potentially) solve them.

[Crane]

Good point! Well, so far, it seems my levels have been patched, despite one of them now being on version 13!

[Colorful Arty]

I'm planning on streaming the contest levels this Saturday at 2:00pm EST (18:00 UTC). There's no way I'll be able to solve them all in one stream, but hopefully I will have a part 2 stream a week afterwards. I'll be streaming on my Youtube channel.

Hey Arty. Unfortunately I am not 100% sure if I can make the stream and if I do I might be a little late. Regardless please feel free to play my contest entry without me and feel free to change the music on it as well. I am honestly not very picky or strict about that personally

[SQron188]

Sounds great, I enjoyed the previous streams too! Hopefully I'll be able to be there to watch it.


Nessy's mentioned the BGM; I recall you changing the ambient/atmposheric track to my Contest #14 entry and I quite liked your choice. This time, however, I don't expect you to mind my selection judging by what you told me on IRC some time ago. I love sharing music with others, it's a topic very dear to me especially since next to nobody I know IRL has similar tastes.

Still, I see no reason to prevent anybody from enjoying a level if they'd like a different BGM to go along with it.

If you do make a change, please don't hesitate to tell me why on IRC/here in the thread/in a PM! I want any and all feedback!

[Colorful Arty]

Thanks for the heads up Nessy!

Don't worry SQRon; I will only change music if the level itself didn't have custom music attached.

[Colorful Arty]

What a lackwit I am. I just remembered I'm not even going to be in town on Saturday, so the stream is getting pushed back to Sunday instead. Same time.

[Nessy]

If the stream is getting pushed back to Sunday I should be able to make it on time Look forward to it.

This saturday, provided nothing else happens (like the next part of the Ocarina of Time Race), I'm planning on streaming just after lunch at 12:00pm EST (16:00 UTC). I'll be streaming the Link to the Past Randomizer.

[Colorful Arty]

Never mind, I forgot Saturday evening is busy for me. The stream will now tentatively be Friday at around 3:00pm EST (19:00 UTC) instead. There will likely be an intermission so I can eat dinner.

Link to the Past Randomizer sounds super awesome!!!! I'll probably miss it though I have an awful lot (of awful things) going on atm.
I'd love watching that anytime.

[Colorful Arty]

This has been on my mind for a while now, and I want to get you guys' opinions, since you're my main viewerbase. I've been debating whether or not to focus less on Youtube videos and more on Twitch streaming. While I love making LPs (and I won't be stopping anytime soon, as I have many future LPs already planned/recorded), I also really like the community Twitch offers as well as the audience interaction. I also believe Twitch is much better for the future of online gaming, and thus more likely to draw new viewers.

What do people think about this? If I do start focusing more on Twitch, my Youtube uploads should not slow down, since most of my future LPs have already been made and just need to be edited/uploaded, and I'll start streaming around once a week at a consistent time (consistency helps the audience). Mainly, I've been considering trying to get good at the Link to the Past Randomizer or playing Roller Coaster Tycoon (if I can get it to work) or trying to seriously speedrun something.

Please let me know what your thoughts are about this. I really do want some feedback from you guys.

[Nessy]

If you think that focusing more on Twitch is a good idea then I say go for it It's not a bad idea considering the fact that the live streaming has the advantage of the interactive audience as you mentioned. This can be especially fun for certain games where you can have the audience actually participate in a way. I can definitely see potential in that

[Ryemanni]

I kinda prefer streamers myself, but my problem is that I can never catch them live (even if I want to). That's why I mainly watch stream recordings from youtube later.
