Below, I'm sharing some of the coolest things from you guys. I'm forever grateful for your support.

I feel you’re one of the most ‘connected’ shmup youtubers (that sounds weird… but you know what I mean) in that it’s about the games, the gameplay, the mindset and the players themselves - no one else with your reach is doing this.

Preach on, Dace!
This might be your best video yet. You just described the shmup growth mindset and also explained why you are so passionate about these games.
You're the only one talking about these things and I love it brother!

I think I found the channel around a year ago and it’s been a highlight whenever a new meet the player, coffee and shmups, or clear guide dropped. I genuinely think Meet the Player is one of the coolest series on YouTube, there’s really not much like it even beyond the shmup genre! I can’t wait for what the new year will hold!

I can’t believe I missed this and your other uploads. This was an episode I needed to hear.

Looking good my guy. Love this series. I can see this becoming a huge part of the shmup community. Looking forward to the next one.

Fellow coffee loving, shmup playing Canuck here. Love the content! Lots of great resources for budding players here. l'Il be making use of your Crimzon Clover
guide as I struggle though it. Looking forward to coffee talk #3!

Love these videos. The casual
introspective conversation is something that I think is really lacking (or at least certainly an opportunity) around this community and genre. There's so much talk about the games themselves, but far less talk about the humans that play them and the growth that happens along the way. Keep it up, I'd love to see more of this kind of thing.

I just wanna say Dace that I treasure your approach to STGS. You emphasize dissolving limiting belief systems, have organized structure to what you wanna accomplish, set realistic goals and build off them. Thank you man.
