Congratulations! I've been working on a browser-based MMORPG inspired by OSRS (https://news.reconquer.online/)

What method did you use to reach out to streamers for sponsorship? Was it through email or through some other platform?

Yes, game dev and developing software for personal projects. Corporate world is insufferable.

It's been pretty stable today since I fixed my email service.

Not much compared to just about any completed game, but hopefully the framework is there.

You can talk to NPC's and do all their quests/tasks/riddles etc and do the goblin boss fight and quest. There is a lever-door puzzle in the basement of the chef's house.

You can fish, cook, mine, smelt, smith, woodcut, farm, and craft different items. There are some special abilities you can unlock. To me at least, the fun is just choosing your own adventure and discovering things as you go.

You do have to get used to right clicking on things to see if you can interact with them.

Thank you for the offer on the short notice! I ended up getting verified with the other service and am happy to enter have a little stability now. I will check out mailpace though!

Chick and egg problem with email providers. Prove you're not spam by having actual customers, then we'll allow you to send more than 100 emails.

Just switched to an actual transactional email service so it might actually work for a bit. (oops, still need to get verified to send more than 100...)

We need more "fun" places on the internet. It feels so dreary and manufactured most of the time.

Turned out to be my email service blocking me for "suspicious activity". Error logs weren't helpful for some reason. I didn't realize my server would crash if it couldn't do an initial connection to the email server.

Root cause of the issues: Trying to connect to an SMTP service to send OTP's that began to block me after "suspicious activity".
