#DwarvenDescent

Twitch and Lag

We are...currently formulating our optimal Twitch content strategy because, c’mon! ARE YOU A DEVELOPER OR A NEANDERTHAL?

In our case, perhaps we were too long in Neanderthalia but to our credit, we didn’t really have a game ready to demo and being yet two *more* dudes playing random vids didn’t seem like our best play.

So we’ve kept making Dwarven Descent, our charming indie dungeon crawler we’re calling “The World’s First Action Puzzle Crawl.”

And when not making up clever little marketing niches for our game, we’re making the game. Or now, making videos of us playing our game.

There may be something we’re missing, but we experienced a lot of lag with our Twitch streams. Both as we were streaming and on playback. I hope that doesn’t continue.

Looking on Reddit and other forums, it seems to be a semi-persistent challenge to endure and/or overcome. 

So here’s hoping our first real stream (not counting all the goofy experiments) will be relatively lag free. Or else we may start Twitching for the realzors.
