Boy With Love – Stardew Valley Live Stream – Part 4
Coming to grips with my past romantic failures in Stardew Valley, I lay it all on the line for Haley right off the bat. When I wasn’t putting on the moves, I dove deep into the mines for rare minerals. Throughout the stream, we also touch on the subject of long distance relationships, rough working conditions, and a trio of random games make it into show & tell!
At the end, I take a few detours into a few oldies: Atari Flashback Classics and Panel De Pon!
Stacks on Stacks! – Treasure Stack Live Stream
Loosely inspired by Wario’s Woods, Treasure Stack is an indie puzzle game that’s quite stressful!
Why Did You Eat That!? – Stardew Valley Live Stream – Part 3
Though I’ve been pining for Haley for weeks now, we’ve made inroads with someone else in ways that I didn’t expect. Besides that, we partake in our first egg festival, discuss our issues with using social media, and geek out over the return of the Tony Hawk series!
Improving My Streaming Content with a Voice Changer and a Little Ingenuity
“Haley is ignoring you.”
After receiving a harsh comment from Haley in Stardew Valley about my perceived lack of fashion sense the other day, the animosity grew with this latest interaction. Refusing to even look me in the eye, I decided to find another way to her heart: through my phone.
In one hand, I picked up my phone. The other hand was holding down the button to my new voice changer. Now sounding to the viewers as if I was actually on the phone, I left a pathetic voicemail of my character begging for Haley’s attention.
As I hung up the phone, the Simp Phone was born. What started as a silly spur-of-the moment test of my new voice changer became a recurring segment. More importantly, it was a step towards shoring up one of my biggest weaknesses as a streamer.
Settlers of Catan Review
Settlers of Catan – or just Catan as it’s known these days – is still a giant in the world of tabletop gaming. Originally released in 1995, the game has since sold over 22 million copies and is often cited as the spark that ignited the modern wave of tabletop gaming.
Though I’ve been a tabletop gaming enthusiast for a number of years now – and have an unopened copy of Settlers of Catan sitting on my shelf – my wife and I never found the right time to play. At last, thanks to our friends Brendan and Matt, we’ve finally crossed Catan off of our bucket list. Many years after the fact, is the island of Catan still worth settling?
Not Ready For This Jelly – Stardew Valley Multiplayer Stream with Double Jump and PlayerTwoStart
Kris from Double Jump and my brother Randy join me to start our latest venture: Triple Jump Start Farm! While the two experts breeze their way through the early stages of Stardew Valley, I spend too much time pining for love in all the wrong places. Also, did we make it out of the mines alive?!

Super Punch-Out!! and When Great Isn’t Great Enough
The night before every stream, I do a technical check. Firing up all of my equipment, I ensure that everything is functioning as intended and that the audio mix between my mic and the game. After configuring everything for Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island, I revisited an old fave: Super Punch-Out!!.
At the time of its release, I adored this game. Beat it many times over back in the day, and couldn’t put it down on this day until I sent the final boss down to the canvas. Much of my muscle memory was still intact, as I finished the campaign with a record of 16-2.
In large part, Super Punch-Out!! is still a great game and worthy of your time. Personally, I think it’s better than Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!! – its predecessor that has reached mythical status in the gaming community. Even so, it quickly got lost in the shuffle at the time of its release and it’s nonexistent in the greater conversation of gaming. What happened? Continue reading
Calling Haley on My Simp Phone! – Stardew Valley Let’s Play Live Stream Part 2
I bought a voice changer mostly to sound like Auto-Tune when I thank people. Instead, it takes on a life of its own when I use it with Stardew Valley! Why does the wizard sound like T-Pain? And even though Haley has voiced her disinterest in me, I can’t stop leaving her voicemails through my Simp Phone (TM)!
