For those who are like me and old, you’ll remember a lot of the older ‘You Don’t Know Jack’ games for the PS1 and 2. The guys are back with The Jackbox Party Pack, which enables players to use their smartphones to partake in hilarious and highly competitive games.
I’ve personally played this game and this is great for parties and gaming get togethers. It’s really easy to setup and a whole lot of fun.
For the next two days, the game is 50% on the Steam Store. I highly highly recommend you check it out.

I have mentioned in previous broadcasts that I wanted to add a new game to my gaming rotation. Tonight was my first try at Don’t Starve. Just from random videos and streams, I didn’t think this game would be too difficult. Boy, was I wrong:
As you can see, I died before Day 1 was completed. I started to show some progress in the game and I felt as things were going to turn in my favor:
After that, I leaned on chat to get tips tricks and flips on how to play the game proper.
Finally, after establishing my full dependency on chat to guide me, we show PROGRESS!
Overall, the game was a lot of fun and a great addition to the rotation. The action is slower in pace and I find it easy to lax and be focused in the game. I hope to continue to have a strong interaction with my chat.
Streaming Tech
In a previous stream, I had a few people give me feedback on buffering issues. After a deep conversation on Reddit and my own research, I made some significant changes to the stream by down scaling it to 540p resolution and reducing the bitrate (required bandwidth to stream) from 2500kbps to 2000kbps. It seems to operate as expected with little feedback around buffering. I plan on increasing my FPS from 30 frames to 45 to see if it offers a better quality to the picture. We will see! All in the sake of offering a quality stream.

First off, welcome to my little website. The purpose of the site is to give people I befriend a greater look into my life and gaming. The site will narrate what streams I did and my personal thoughts of those broadcasts. Along with that, it will often share my opinions on our ever evolving world of gaming and random things that I’ll run into like good deals and things in the news.
Overall, this site is to be fun for everyone. I hope you enjoy!
