It was a good run but the resolution on the stream was so tiny you could barely make out anything

Resolution so high you couldn't even see the character on stream. The game only takes up like 50% of the stream screen so it made the game unwatchable :(

Well, lower zoom adds a significant amount of time. Like 5-10 minutes of wandering around. Unfortunate, but not every game is for a GDQ, and this is probably one of them now :v:. The patch that added this was in October.

This game looks awesome, can't believe I've never heard of it before. Looks like it runs right on Final Fight's code base but more :krad:

I wake up to Violent Storm, what a great day. How did the FE run end up going, looked interesting but not 3 hours interesting.

It'd probably have made it 50-100% more watchable though.

Yeah, probably true. For what it's worth, the commentary and chatter during the run was still enjoyable, though having some knowledge of RoR beforehand probably helped me follow what was happening somewhat.

Edit: Also, this current run is enjoyable. And :v: at the Caleb Hart shoutout there.

What I saw of the FE run was fine, and the menuing was certainly very fast.

I think you said the dev's fairly active and chatty, maybe ask him if a large UI option can be put in?

I wonder if scheduling games called Risk of Rain and Violent Storm immediately after one another was intentional? Because thank you.

I did this and could have stopped it, but nothing in nature ever follows a gaussian curve. Sure, they'll tell you that it does. They say that every five minutes someone dies in a car accident, but how often are there seven hundred and sixty one armless and legless corpses in one hangar?

Went back to watch both Morrowind and Rogue Legacy and they were very solid runs. Seems like I didn't miss out on Risk of Rain, too.

Violent Storm is a promising start to the arcade block.

I'd definitely add Violent Storm to that - the commentary was pretty great, on top of a game that's a bona-fide spectacle to watch.

Ninja Baseball Batman is an amazing game and if you can ever swing it, getting a 4 player game going on MAME with controllers is an extremely good time.

Cool, noted. I'm not going to update it again til at least tonight though. For whatever reason this PC hates Google Docs and would constantly take focus off the post window and back to an error asking me to refresh the spreadsheet I was using to get the twitch.tv links. It made making that post take a lot longer than it should have.

The pirate code is really more of a guideline, than actual rules.

Violent Storm was hilarious, why have I never heard of this game before.
