What is Motherload about?

You arrive on mars, penny-less but with the bare minimum digging equipment to try and make a living. Gather resources to buy upgrades, and dig down… but be careful to survive the fuel, heat, and other dangers. The deeper you go the more valuable the resources, but beware the dangers!

Should I stream Motherload on Twitch?

0/100 · Closed off· 38 viewers per streamer on paper

Probably not. The only English stream here holds all 38 English viewers — once you take it out there is nothing left to reach.

The only English stream here holds all 38 English viewers. There is nothing left over for a second.

Almost nobody here is available to you — either a couple of streams hold the room, or nobody is watching in English, or the category is empty, or you would be buried.

This reads the room as it is right now — how much of the English-speaking audience is reachable and where you would land — not how many followers you would gain. That depends on you.

Where to buy

All plain links straight to the official stores. Some will become affiliate links later, and they’ll be marked with a ♥ when they are — you’ll always be able to tell, and the unmarked ones will always be there.

How many people stream Motherload?

Right now

1 right now, to 38 viewers between them. Counted live from Twitch and refreshed every 15 minutes.

Is Motherload too saturated on Twitch?

Not crowded, but not open either. Only 1 person is streaming Motherload, and the one English stream holds all 38 English viewers — so the room is quiet because that audience is already committed, not because it is waiting for you.
