Stream Incentives

Incentives
NEW: As of January 20, 2020, you no longer have to give the amount of the following incentives in a single tip to enable them. Want to see a 100% Pokemon Puzzle Challenge run, but don't have $100 to spare? You can give $5-$10 at a time. Just specify in your comment which game you want to see for the incentive and I will use this page to keep track of the progress of each game.

$5/500 bits or Tier 1 NEW/1-year/2-year/etc. subscription - 15 minutes of any game I am able to stream that's not a sub goal. This can stack. ($10 for 30 minutes, $20 for an hour, etc.) You can add tips to extend the timer on a game I am currently playing, up to a maximum play time of four (4) hours. Tier 2 subs can get 30 minutes for this incentive. Tier 3 subs can get one hour for this incentive.
$20/2000 bits or Tier 2 subscription - ONE-HANDED Tetris Attack V-Hard run (inspired by edobean and, yes, I have done it on my own time before; I would not be offering this if I couldn't do it)
$30/3000 bits or Tier 3 subscription – All VS COM difficulties run of a Puzzle League series game (like PPL Easy – S-Hard)
$40/4000 bits/hour - Revisit any game I have previously ran that is not part of a sub goal or other incentive. You can specify an existing time for me to improve or a category I have not done. The rate will be based on the length of my existing best time. If my time is under an hour, you will need $40 to get me to run it back until I improve it. If my time is from 1-2 hours, you need $80. Etc., etc., etc. If I have never done the category before, then multiply the rate that the current record time falls into by two (2) to account for me having to learn how to do the new run.
NOTE: I will blacklist runs for this incentive that I do not believe I can improve with any reasonable effort based on the most recent knowledge. I expect this list to be really small. As of May 10, 2020, the only runs on this list are:
The Land Before Time (GBA) - any%
Pokemon Puzzle League - 1P Stadium - Easy
$50/5000 bits – Pokemon Puzzle League S-Hard x5
$100/10000 bits – Puzzle League series game 100% run
$100/10000 bits – Full game playthrough (i.e. beat the game, not 100% it) of any non RPG/strategy game I am able to stream that’s not a sub goal
$200/20000 bits - Full game playthrough (i.e. beat the game, not 100% it) of any RPG/strategy game I am able to stream that's not a sub goal
NOTE: If you intend to give me the funds to purchase a game that you want me to play, the purchase price will be taken off your donation for the purposes of these incentives.
NOTE: Tips of $4.95/495 bits and $9.95/995 bits made during a stream will count as $5 and $10 for these incentives.

Incentive games will generally be played on my next available Saturday, but I can be open for most evenings ET and some Sundays upon request. Thanks to flashcarts, I can stream pretty much anything on console for NES, SNES, N64, GB/C, GBA, DS and 3DS. To see what other commercial games I have to choose from, check out my Backloggery: https://backloggery.com/games.php?user=cardsoftheheart and my Steam page: https://steamcommunity.com/id/cardsoftheheart/games/?tab=all. I will emulate on a case-by-case basis.

Speaking of Steam, if you gift me Steam games, I will try a full playthrough of the game on stream. What great value!

Sub Goals
For hitting certain subscriber milestones, I will play certain games that are not usually my standard stream fare. Some of them are games that I’ve been meaning to play, but haven’t gotten around to. Some of them are games that I… don’t care to play, but are probably hilarious to watch me fail at. Type !subgoal in chat to see the incentive for one of the subscriber milestones. Remember, Tier 1 subscriptions are worth 1 point, Tier 2 subscriptions are worth 2 points, and Tier 3 subscriptions are worth 6 points. I only hope that the on-screen count makes that distinction.

As a bonus, if the channel's peak subscriber point count goes up 5 points in a calendar week, I will throw in another Winnie the Pooh's Home Run Derby stream! (NOTE: As of March 18, 2019, the last recorded peak count was 17.)

Current Sub Goals:
20 - I will get my revenge on Wind & Water: Puzzle Battles after rage-quitting a blind any% race after 6 hours.
25 - I will play an ACTUAL Touhou game!
30 - I will run more of the arcade action puzzler Aqua Rush. It's a really cool game.
35 - I will get my revenge on the grappling platformer Umihara Kawase (SNES) for embarrassing me in a Mystery Tournament match.
40 - I have never played Monster Rancher 1. I will start playing it.
45 - I will learn how to run Magical Tetris Challenge (N64). There's RNG manipulation to be explored.
50 - I will re-visit Yu-Gi-Oh! Dungeon Dice Monsters. There's RNG manipulation to be explored.
55 - I will do bbforky a solid and learn how to run Goof Troop (SNES).
60 - I will learn how to run Mario Party's Mini-Game Island.
65 - I will learn how to run some version of Yoshi's Cookie.
70 - I will play through or run some Yu-Gi-Oh! game that's not Forbidden Memories.
75 - I will learn how to run SNES Dr. Mario.
80 - I will play through Disgaea 4 on stream, because SARDINES!
85 - I will do a "100%" run of Tetris Attack, i.e. complete every mode I can.
90 - I will learn how to run Mario Party 2's Mini-Game Coaster.
95 - I will do a "100%" run of Pokemon Puzzle Challenge.
100 - I will learn how to run Pokemon Snap.
150 - I will do a "100%" run of Pokemon Puzzle League.
200 - I will re-visit Yu-Gi-Oh! The Falsebound Kingdom until I improve my current run. Probably.
500 - I will re-visit Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories. The goal is so high because I hate playing the game that much.

Bit Boss
Most Bit Bosses start with 1,000 HP. Inflict damage by throwing bits, tips and subscriptions into the tip jar to knock out the boss and become the boss yourself. Depending on how much overkill damage you give to the boss, you can start with more than 1,000 HP. Bosses can also heal themselves with bits and tips so keep that in mind!
At the end of a calendar month, if you are the surviving Bit Boss and have more than 5,000 max HP, I will gift a Tier 1 subscription to you or anyone of your choice! If you manage to do this for 6 months in a row, I will make that sixth gift sub a Tier 3 subscription! NOTE: you must make a single donation of at least $1 or 100 bits in the month to qualify for subsequent gift subs. You cannot earn more than 6 consecutive months of subscriptions in this manner.

If you manage to kill a bit boss that started with more than 10,000 max HP, then you can claim a gift card from me based on how much you gave on your killing blow! (min $5 donation, max reward $20)


I realize that several of these incentives do not scale well so I reserve the right to change them as the stream gets bigger. The pipe dream is to quit my day job and do this full time so I can entertain you guys a lot more. Your support can make that possible. To quote Kyu Sugardust, let's "make it happen!"
