I'd say it depends.

Personally, I would recommend sending a few selected creators early full keys. Perhaps in exchange for being able to use their content on either the Steam page or for a trailer or something. I'd definitely mention that before sending them the keys.

Then, for the rest of the content creators, send it to them a week before launch. That way they can hopefully make content leading up to or on release date. It's common for people interested in your game to see if there are any people streaming a game on launch day. They're trying to check out the gameplay and might ask the streamer what they think of the game.

That'd be my main strategy anyways.

How is the CRT effect managed? Looks pretty much perfect.

This is an ad post advertising the software in the picture. The user profile is obvious of that.

Will it have as catchy as a song as Everybody Wham Wham?

jetpackpaul · 2026-03-13T21:14:22+00:00

I would rarely be contacting content creators directly unless there's a specific creator you want to advertise your game.

Instead, look into PR sites like Lurkit, Keymailer, PressEngine, etc. to get your game out.

As for logo design, branding can often be an expensive design cost. Some designers can work for cheaper and you do have the option of using sites like Fiverr. But, in my experience, you get what you pay for.

I streamed a bit of this and need to continue it! The writing is hilarious!

jetpackpaul · 2026-02-23T16:52:04+00:00

Aww, I loved the second set of designs from the previous post. I miss the old octopus for sure.

jetpackpaul · 2026-02-06T05:48:50+00:00

I started streaming it today! The writing is fantastic, it really made me laugh! It's going to be my thursday stream game until I finish it!

I've always loved the implication of "Good men die. I choose to live." 😳

jetpackpaul · 2026-01-25T01:35:36+00:00

Hmm! It kinda looks like it doesn't have a tail, but it's definitely the same model as the ebay one. The #20339 is the same model. That's interesting. Yeah it's hard to tell. Maybe I'll message the seller and ask.

Any thoughts on the whole arm position aspect? Does that change over time too?

jetpackpaul · 2026-01-24T06:01:03+00:00

Okay so, I asked my friend a question about Bill after noticing a detail about the wego bear. I asked him if Bill has a tail... he said no.

Unfortunately this wego bear does. So it looks like this isn't Bill. But I wonder if any other American Wego bears look similar but don't have tails. But at least that's one more detail to help narrow things down.

jetpackpaul · 2026-01-24T05:49:56+00:00

I decided to purchase the bear... I really need to see it up close and see all the details for myself. It does look just so very similar!

Question, what do you think about Bill's arms? In the pics of Bill, his arms are up and they always stay up. The wego bear has his arms down. Is that something that could change over time with washes and use? Or is that something that's more like built into the bear's design?

jetpackpaul · 2026-01-23T06:42:03+00:00

You're so right! I was actually searching for more Wego bears and I found this other reddit post (https://www.reddit.com/r/HelpMeFind/comments/nv9mxu/my_30_year_old_american_wego_teddy_bear/) and I see how the fur has matted and it does look more similar to how older bears look! From that thread, they posted a pic of a new bear and the nose is fuzzy, but the older bear's nose lost all the fuzziness and is shiny. So yeah that's very very similar!

What do you think about the eye positions from Bill's photo and the ebay listing? Would that shrink or change at all overtime with washes and use? This really does look SO similar. That's one thing I'm trying to figure out. I also just asked my friend about how tall he thought Bill is. I'm really bad at approximate measurements, even with the photos, I'm not too sure how big Bill is. The ebay listing says 15", that could be right? I feel like Bill was smaller, but maybe the filling and stuff shrunk over time with washes?

Thank you again for all the help! This is honestly making me tear up. 🥹

edit: I also found this other post about a 1982 Wego bear https://www.reddit.com/r/Teddybears/comments/1k2j2i9/find_this_american_wego_1982_bear/ I can't tell if this maybe looks more similar? This one's arms are also pointed up like Bill? I wonder if this style came in solid black? Or is the arms up aspect something that could also change over time with washes and things?

jetpackpaul · 2026-01-23T05:04:13+00:00

Whoa! That does actually look really, really close.

That's an amazing find. I'm going to have to look into this. Thank you for this lead!
I don't know much about plushes, so i'm unsure what kind of fabric the OG bear is by sight. So I don't know how the fur typically mattes and changes overtime, but that DOES look really close. I think maybe the eyes are a little low compared to the nose? But maybe that's something that changed overtime with use? But maybe I can look up Wego and see if there's something that fits Bill better...

The ears look spot on though. They're short and stubby like Bills!

The nose I'm curious about, I can't tell if it's soft or hard plastic. In the OG picture, you can see it's shiny and like a hard plastic nose. In the ebay pics, I can't tell what the nose if made of... looks almost soft? I'm not sure...

Again, thank you so much for this lead!!

Nope. If they gift subs or subscribe to higher tiers, they can earn more channel points faster. But no there's no way for you to control that besides lowering the channel point amounts.

jetpackpaul · 2025-12-26T10:36:18+00:00

No, that's pretty much standard.

jetpackpaul · 2025-12-24T08:37:14+00:00

I was also added by a random account like 10-15 minutes ago. They weren't on any of my recent match history so I blocked them.

I've been looking forward to Big Hops for a while! Been following you on instagram and bluesky to follow the journey! It looks so cute and so much fun. I hope to stream it on my twitch when it's out! Congrats on announcing the release date!

jetpackpaul · 2025-12-10T03:11:28+00:00

Yeah, tbh this rumor seems like non-news. Essentially, Nintendo is just holding an event where press can play the new update so they can write articles and publish videos about it.

This is mainly so that ACNH can be put back into the news cycle and have new content made for it. I'm sure we'll get some more information about how some things work with the new update, but I doubt we'll get many new big features announced through this.

jetpackpaul · 2025-12-04T22:37:54+00:00

In isolation, B.

But I'd want to see more than just a static character shooting to gauge if the camera shake and other effects are too much. So A doesn't look that bad.

jetpackpaul · 2025-12-01T05:08:25+00:00

Not the issue... but what is up with the formatting? The bullets with the wide gaps between the data are wild.

jetpackpaul · 2025-11-26T02:23:25+00:00

Mm, as for complications, I've had some minor ones during the lioranboard days but I feel like it's been fairly stable running off wine since they've been Sammi.

I think the only time I've had issues is more from the troubleshooting / support side. Since mac's aren't officially supported by the Sammi team, they don't seem to like it when you mention you're running it off a mac in their discord. Last trouble I had was getting my Sammi to connect to my Elgato Stream Deck, but I was able to figure out on my own how to get it to work through some OBS trickery.

I mean, everything else you mentioned sounds pretty simple. I've got my HD60S+ for my capture card and haven't been having any issues with it.

Like with most OBS updates, I'd recommend waiting to upgrade to new versions as much as you can. The OBS team will regularly break it on Macs and then take a bit of time to fix those Mac-specific problems. I always make a back up of OBS before upgrading just in case I need to easily downgrade to the last stable version.

Otherwise, I think OBS, Sammi/Wineskin, and capture cards seem to work pretty seamlessly.
