Meet the Old Folks!

Would you like to watch some millennials play video games and pretend to be retired? Look no further. Cool Gamer Retirement Home is the place you’re looking for.

We were founded by a team of six small streamers on Twitch, just getting started, and learning how to do this thing together. We’re growing and learning every day.

FOUNDERS: despacituwu, island_grandpa, judgeofudge, katryam, SuperRedria64, ThePetraBot

We also mostly wish we were actually retired so we could focus on art, content creation, and helping make a difference with more energy. Above all else, we wanted this stream team to be chill and low-responsibility. Working full-time is often enough of a chore that we didn’t want this fun hobby to become stressful. Some of our members have retired from streaming. Check a member’s status to see whether you can anticipate streams from them soon!

Let’s meet the old folks!

Grandma Shark works full time as a marine scientist and loves to stream a variety of games on the side! Her favorites are story-focused RPGs (mmo and otherwise) and open-world sandbox games. Come stop by her pool, she may be a shark, but she doesn’t bite!

Internet Gramma is a variety streamer who writes things, crochets a lot, and likes cats. Mostly she just wants to do good in the world and stop being so anxious all the time.

What it do, buckaroo! Island Grandpa is your queer grandparent, here to affirm all you grandkids out there. Come hang and chill with Island Grandpa while they play games, see friends, and drink kombucha (the kids these days say it’s good for your gut health).


Lítchi is the Monster Pappy in the attic with hamsters. A big, hairy, scary Oni man, who lives with a goblin and a succu-oni, somewhere in your neighborhood. She is part of another stream team, the Midnight Monster District.

Nat (nahtagain on Twitch) is a full-time graphic designer and part-time streamer who’s maybe not so good at video games but they like hanging out in the computer room all the same. They play a lot of simulation games but also enjoy indie story-telling titles and games with adventure.


PansiePants, a white female-presenting person with glasses, looks down while touching her headset, which has green cat ears.

PansiePants is a geek. Fur Mom. Lover of all things cute. No one said she would be good. Stop by her stream (sometimes of Pokemon!) and if you do, please bring coffee or a cocktail.

Papa Fey is your friendly neighborhood enby, here to bring you your daily dose of chaos and neurodivergent acceptance…


Plant Witch Gigi is a full-time scientist and a part-time streamer. They love farming sims, sandbox games, and platformers. Ever a full-blown Nintendo stan, she has branched into many titles, both on Switch and PC. They are definitely totally normal about piranha plants.

Shayisplaying is a black nonbinary bisexual streamer that loves cozy and non cozy games, poetry, and playing with friends. In their stream expect a normal amount of mentions of Toad, Shrek, Megamind and SpongeBob and some super gay vibes.


Stale Biscuit is a Cookie Faerie Vtuber. They like sweets and nice people.


RPG Gramps plays a variety of roleplaying games and loves to cook. He is Redria’s spouse and you may see him modding for our other members.

Uber Nana plays an impressive amount of FFXIV and is the CGRH Taxi Service in-game. She plays sandbox games, life simulation games, RPGs, and MMORPGs!

status: retired


Uncle Birby is a DM variety streamer as well. For all the good things the internet has brought us, it’s also introduced a pressure to be great at anything you do. Screw that. Let’s be OK together! Come for the variety, stay for the Dad jokes.

Virtual Pepaw plays a lot of Beat Sabre and was last seen playing Risk of Rain 2. They designed the cool retirement home graphics!
