Schedule (Tentatively) 10:30-12:00 daily EST

Olympic Pole Vaulter. Owner of several cats. These things are not me. But what I am is an artist/programmer who does game development and lp's of my favorite games. My current game project is a clone of Space Invaders in the (now "free!") Unreal Engine. I'm doing all of my own art assets right now, and it's been a lot of fun.

Since the stream appeals to different crowds depending on what's on, it's important to have some guidelines such that everyone can have an enjoyable experience. To that end, contributions to chat should adhere to this simple set of guidelines. Respect - Talk must be respectful to myself, the mods, and to all viewers. Disagreements and spirited discussions are fine, but they must be in good and sincere faith. No hate speech or sexism of any kind. No bossing the streamers. I may be sensitive to the audience, but not a slave to it. Creativity - Want to express yourself? Fan art, Bird Lore, or any personal works that you're fond of are absolutely encouraged! Just want to chill out and watch? That's okay too! No self-promotion. "Look at how much I've improved my title screen music." is a smile. "Buy my greenlit game." is a frown. No spam. I'll do my best to look at everything, but don't spam if I miss something. Construction - Want to make game dev suggestions, ask questions, or coach my Binding of Isaac skills? This section applies to you. Game dev contributions/suggestions should be made during lulls in workflow, where I'm stuck, brain storming or between tasks Understand that contributions/suggestions are usually considered, but not followed. Questions are encouraged, but should be held onto while I'm focused on a task, e.g. "Do you recommend Blender or Maya?" When playing a game, hints are usually okay, but coaching should be restrained unless requested by myself or another streamer. What to do if I've been banned? - We all make mistakes. Understand that it's nothing personal or against you. I have instructed the mods to be liberal with timeouts, but if you follow these guidelines you will not have any issues. If the chat means something to you, take a moment to reflect on why you got banned. Humility is an endearing trait. Drafted 5/27/15 Update 4/13/16 If you're proud to be an asshole, you'll be banned. Nobody has time for that.
