    By Brandykins1982, in Frontpage,


    Hello there, once again!

    Brandykins here, AJSA member and Stream Team Captain, the mouthpiece for all the news that is stream-team related.
     
    Thank you to everyone who came out for our first big stream team event, the AJSA Jackbox Games night! In spite of the technical issues, things went off without a hitch, and we are glad you all enjoyed yourselves.
     
    On Monday, April 17th, at 9:30PM Eastern/8:30PM Central, Tons0Fun and other members of the AJSA stream team will be playing a game called Deep Rock Galactic. What is Deep Rock Galactic, you may be wondering? According to their website:
     
    “Deep Rock Galactic is a procedurally generated first person co-op shooter for up to 4 players, developed in Unreal Engine 4. As a team of veteran dwarven space miners, you must go on missions for your corporate overlords and venture into the deepest, most dangerous cave systems of the most hostile planet ever discovered. Experience teamwork as you’ve never experienced it in a co-op game before. Complete missions and gather ever  more riches. Expand your roster of class-based skills, unlock new gear and weapons, and take on the worst monsters the galaxy has to offer.”
     
    This game will be available on Steam later this year as an early access title, so if you want to get a sneak peek at this game, be sure to tune in to http://www.twitch.tv/the_tons0fun on Monday at 9:30PM Eastern/8:30PM Central!
     
    Also, our dear Jaysons_Rage will be doing a birthday stream on May 5th on the AJSA Gaming Channel! And--what a coincidence--it is also the release date of Prey, which he will be streaming! Be sure to wish him a Happy Birthday on that day and show him your support by watching his stream on that day at http://www.twitch.tv/ajsagaming
     
    Again, if you have clips that you’ve clipped from your favorite stream team members’ streams, get with Jaysons_Rage, the main video man of the AJSA. We want to put together compilation videos of these clips so you all can see our best, and most embarrassing moments.

    See everyone, again, in two weeks!
