E.Y.E. Divine Cybermancy is a first person action game with rpg elements. The character development of the game is very complex and might take a while to figure out.

This is a fast paced game where two opposing teams control racing cars to hit a ball into each others goals. The cars can make jumps and even dodge in order to hit the ball.

To enhance:
To preface this: I stream for my job. I love it too and I can't deny it. But to be honest, it is hard work. It may seem like it's a guy just playing video games, and that's how I treated it for a while, but you have to think about it like you're running a TV station. New content, keeping your practice and skills up, and figuring out WHAT you're going to be streaming.

Currently I have 12 followers and 2-4 regular viewers. I may not have much behind me, but the advice I can give and help has been taken from other streamers on twitch (Magikarpusedfly, TheYordles, and raihnbowkidz). It may seem like it will take forever, but if you have what you want to do down and noted, all that has to be done is doing what you feel comfortable with.

Except nudity.

Don't do that.
