In a word... fun
... Fun fun FUN!
(that still counts as one word)
Playing video games
Not a gamer; playing games
I'm actually not that good to be honest
I think of it mainly as something to do while I'm...Chatting with viewers
Making friends; building community
This is why I'm here and I show my appreciation with...
Rewards, games and prizes
Giving back; showing love
Before streaming I didn't realize I had a secret ambition to be a game show host.
Rewards - CRED, COIN, & Games!
Seriously, you folks bring the energy, the laughs, and the good vibes every single stream. You're engaged, you're enthusiastic, and you deserve a big ol' virtual high-five for being the life of the party!

Fabulous Prizes!!
Disclaimer: Prize list accurate as of 5/2/24. No guarantee of completeness or accuracy.
I'm all about spreading the prize love during streams! At least three goodies up for grabs each time, and I've got this fun game where you can trade in COIN from our text adventures for mystery prizes. It's all about keeping things lively and competitive! Just remember, to get in on the action, you gotta follow my Twitch channel. And when it's time to dish out those prizes, expect some shiny Steam keys coming your way! Let's keep the fun rolling! Catch you in the chat, The 'price' in COIN is kind-of arbitrary. I use these deals to keep the text-games competitive.
All players must follow my twitch channel to participate.
Prizes delivered in the form of a Steam key.

Free games? This is madness!!
"how does he do it?"

I get this a lot actually. Everyone wonders where I get all these pc game keys to give away. Its less sordid than you would expect...
I buy games in bundles from various sources including Humble where I have a Humble Choice subscription. It would be impossible for me to play all the games I already have, say nothing of the games I get every month, every week.
