Thank you very much for stopping by. My name is Marki (he/him) and I am a full-time variety streamer and videogame librarian PNGtuber. In the outside world, I am supposed to be an interdisciplinary PhD candidate and occasionally a writer, but my poor health has made it very difficult to adequately pursue these activities. Therefore, streaming, a genuine passion project, has become the primary focus of my daily life, giving me a place that feels like home.

When playing videogames, I usually aim for full completion, a process we sometimes jokingly call the Marki%. Occasionally, I also enjoy doing challenge runs that are not part of a completion process. And on different days still, our time here can turn into a veritable stream of consciousness. Should you decide to join us, you can expect to see an assortment of RPGs, platformers, and Metroidvanias, both old and new, though my taste is rather eclectic and I try to leave my comfort zone from time to time.

If you would like to keep in touch with me and other viewers or receive the latest updates on our stream, please consider joining our Discord server. If you are interested in learning more about the thought process behind our avatar, feel free to read the little summary I uploaded here.

My personal vision for our streams is to share completion processes in their entirety in a calm and informative environment.

I wish to give each of our projects the time it requires while sharing my belief in the importance of patience and the willingness to slow down.

Kindness and acceptance are core values to me, and I hope I can keep learning new things about the videogames we play.

To keep the stream comfortable for everybody, please respect the following rules:

1. Racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia or any other kind of group-related hatred is never acceptable or “funny.” [If this is not self-evident, this might not be the right channel for you to begin with...]

2. This stream expects a certain degree of emotional maturity from its viewers and all chat participants need to be at least 18 years old!

3. Please refrain from posting any spoilers. Don’t take away other people’s one opportunity to experience something for the first time!

4. Please don’t engage in backseat gaming unless I EXPLICITLY say it’s alright.

5. Please don’t use the chat for any form of self-promotion.

6. Please don’t post any friendship codes or other types of multiplayer requests in the chat.

7. As somebody who is usually rather pessimistic, I hope to build a positive, non-cynical environment in which to share experiences with videogames. This is not a place for excessive negativity toward any videogame or playstyle.

I stream regularly, three to four times per week, usually from around 6 PM (Pacific Time, UTC−08:00).

The audio settings and microphone setup for our streams were done with Safail.
