SleightofGame

"Every Game Ever" is our ideology. I have always been out of touch with gaming culture and lived in my own world. I also am a big fan of magic, thus the card theme. Welcome aboard the Sleight Train, where you can experience the magic of reliving all of your favorite games for the very first time.

The Backstory

Panel Content
I had always had a bit of anxiety as a kid at the thought of having lived my whole life only to realize I have missed an amazing game. Like young Anakin, (Star Wars) I wanted to "see them all!" And so I shall. This channel is dedicated to my obligation to play many games of all sorts. My stepdad's uncle was Larry Emmons (pictured above), one of the lead developers for a little game called Pong. Larry would ask his family and all the kids to play it and try and break it. My stepdad is a 1st generation gamer, often playing those retro sweaty arcade games and having my mother hand him quarters while he played during their dates. He bought me a Sega Genesis and the rest was history. Video games have always been an integral part of my life. My stepdad heavily influenced my tastes in gaming and led me down the action-adventure path from "Shadow of the Beast" to shooters like "Halo" or darker, grittier games such as "Gears Of War" or the Arkham series. Unfortunately, I missed MANY classics like... a lot. Things like Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy, most Nintendo and most horror (I was always too scared) and anime. You can read a much lengthier version of this story in our discord. So it goes like this: A friend wanted me to stream a game on Mixer for him. Mixer went down, switched to Twitch, people started coming in, and here we are. I also love magic (not the gathering) and will from time to time watch magic content here or on Discord with you all. Magic for me is more of an exciting little hobby rather than a profession. I love to collect cards and will occasionally practice new stuff. Someday, I will disappear, but hopefully the journey will remain.

Missed a playthrough of your favorite game, or maybe just want to check out past streams? This link takes you over to Vault 52, the YouTube video archive. There, you will find the lightly edited version of all past streams, (boring stuff cut out) nicely organized into various playlists. There are also things EXCLUSIVE to YouTube such as magic tricks and tutorials, random videos, and EXTRA GAMES that either can't be played on Twitch, or that require a little extra concentration. Sub and keep the notifications on so you know when something is uploaded that you may be interested in. Oh yeah, there are also reaction videos...

Twitter

Not too often, not too complainy, and minimalist enough to scroll through and see the old stuff. Often cryptic and always creative, this link will take you to only the best in tweets. Home of the "In Too Deep" series. This is mostly a place to vote on stuff, including our yearly GOLDEN CLUB award.

Sort of a more visual version of Twitter, this is where you can find all the extra lore and REVEALZ. Wanna see more of young Sleight? Just use the "Bring The Cringe" channel point redemption. Might also throw in some magic stuffs here too in some way or another.

The Dono tab, for those of you who want to fight the man and think Mr. Bezos has enough money. There is an overlay on the stream that shows little goals I have for games or various other things for the channel. Donations go towards those, but they are still just donations. Do not feel obligated by any means. Every game ever is only possible because of you. Stay cozy and keep loving.

Discord

A "conflux" or "confluence" is by definition, a place where streams meet or converge. The idea is to have a centralized server to share between many streamers. There, we watch stuff and play stuff and do all the Discord things, except as a family. Feel free to jump in and share your screen and just vibe with your friends.
