I took a look at your Spiderman 2 stream, and your channel, and it looks like recently you've been streaming regularly, which is great, but I think I have a few suggestions that I hope might help.
Consider getting a better microphone, or adjusting your audio settings. I had trouble hearing you over the game itself. Idk whether its a settings issue or a hardware issue though.
Consider making and posting a calendar of your streaming times, and try to adjust it to when you think most people might be free, like on weekends or evenings if you can. This way, people can actually plan to watch your stuff.
Lastly, consider making or commissioning a more interactive streamer sprite. I know that may seem shallow that people may consider to watch a stream or not just based on that, but a common theme I've noticed among streamers that see a bigger crowd is that they invest a lot into their png or vtube avatar. That character is the "host" so to speak, so having a really interactive one makes a good first impression for people who may run across your stream.
One more thing, sometimes it just takes a lot of determination and stubbornness before you finally reach your stride. You seem to at least have over a hundred followers, which imo is pretty decent for a year. It took me forever to get that far in my art journey, before I finally gained again a few years in. It's great that you're asking around on how to improve, and I hope others are also able to give you advice that'll help you succeed. I wish you the best!

I don't have a lot to invest to, I am just trying to get by using my wits and doing whatever I can to gain traction. The PNGs I got were freebies from a friend. Believe me, if I had time off work, more than just 3 days at a time, i'd put more effort into it.

Streaming is this weirdly RNG thing if you get big or not and it's deeply frustrating. Hang in there, dude.

Deeply frustrating barely defines it. I haven't seen much growth in months and it feels like i am hanging kn by a thread.
