We are so excited that you are considering joining this year's event!
Who can join:
YOU! If you are here and curious about joining, then you are already the right person for the event!
Any Twitch streamer can join! We are all here to have fun and make new friends.
Dosember is an inclusive event, whether it's your first time playing a DOS game or you are a life long enthusiast. If you're looking for help getting game running, learning DosBox, building a vintage PC, or just looking for some game suggestions, consider hanging out with us in the Retro Computer Events Discord. There are so many kind and wonderful people in there that would love to help! The Retro PC Gaming Community on Twitch is by far the most welcoming group of people.
Requirements:
We aren't big on rules and restrictions, we just want you to have fun with us!
Stream MS-DOS games on Twitch throughout the month of December. DOS Games, DOSBox, source ports of DOS games, reduxes, HD remasters etc are ALL welcome! Use whatever input devices, tools, and other methods you need to enjoy these classics; of course, you get imaginary bonus points for utilizing real hardware.
Support the other Dosember streamers participating alongside you with shout-outs, raids, and general excitement for their streams.
Promote the yearly Dosember T-shirt. It’s cool!
When streaming be sure to use the #DOSembertwitch tag as the twitch link on the main page is actually a search result for that tag. This is also required by our website to display you as live on front page.
HAVE FUN!
Some notes about the T-shirts:
Anyone who signs-up to participate BEFORE November 15th will get their name on the back of the shirt.
The T-shirt money is used at the end of December to do something nice for someone in the Retro PC community on Twitch. In the past this has been anything from sub bombing a newly affiliated streamer to buying vintage midi equipment for someone who is making new midi music.
If you have any ideas on ways we can use the money collected from the T-shirt sales to better our community, please message ArtyomHavok.
Optional:
If you would like to join the conversation with the community participating in the event you are welcome and encouraged to join the Retro Computer Events Discord.
