I do my best to keep this starter pack up to date as folks join bsky or become more/less active, so if your feed is short on people who think cool thoughts check it out

Turns out The Chair Company is a gateway drug for watching I Think You Should Leave ten times on a loop while you're lying sick in bed

And finally, Day Five! (#41-50) Much appreciation to those who checked out the list and shared. I know I'm a little voice in a little space, but if even one of you found a new game in here you want to check out, I'm happy. Until next time, homies! <3

I'm too under the weather to make it to 2000 followers on this website all by myself, so here's a picture of my copy of Carol Vorderman's Sudoku for the PlayStation Portable. Surely that should be enough for about 5 to 10 more people to feel secure that following me is Worth It.

It's Day Four, which means it's time for ten more! (#31-40)

This takes me way back. :(

This will be my last stream until the new year, as I'll be taking a break after this, so let's make this special!

I had a great time answering slightly less than 5000 questions, and if you're thinking, "Bob, you should do piece to camera more often. You're extremely handsome and also it'll be easier than finding the perfect B-roll footage when you're rambling on about a game's prehistory," I agree with you!

you already know what's up (steam sale rec thread is what's up) as always, i focus primarily on older, obscure, and just plain weird games, as big name titles don't need the help. so, onwards!

Announcing The Hacker Update. A brand-new hero with their own unique way of playing Q-UP. Help the Hacker escape the game before being deleted by QA! Steal skills from the other heroes!! Misspell common English words!!! Also: Q-UP IS ON SALE FOR 25% OFF store.steampowered.com/app/3730790/...

Day Three, babyyyy! #21-30 down in the replies. Two days to goooooooo.

Who coined "Metroidvania"? It wasn't @jparish.bsky.social, and he'll be the first to tell you. Besides, there are far more interesting questions, like: How did it spread? Evolve? And what's it got to do with rickrolling? Watch til the end for a post-credits sting. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8set...

Day Two (#11-20) down in the replies now!

Today is the day, my birthday! My treat: 30+ minutes of Q's and A's and my beautiful face. Twice, if you count the portrait of child me! youtu.be/3sQKa_qNSJI

Inspired by Casey's beautiful list, I decided to give the "fifty game recs" challenge a shot as well! ...I'm only doing 10 a day though, because I am mortal and weak. :| Anyway, check the replies for the fiftiest niftiest games I loved this year (in no particular order)!

Yessss, dude.

HORSES!! I loved this extremely dark and controversial game, and I made a whole dang video on why: youtu.be/0uu4v7vI638

In light of this, how about a traditional youtube subscriber milestone Q&A? Drop your questions here or anywhere else I might see them and if there are enough of them I'll make a little video in which I answer them.

Big things happening on r/bejeweled

So when I say Wild Wild West: The Steel Assassin is a videogame, I mean it.

NEW VIDEO: I end the year by taking a quick look at all my weird gamepads. It takes a while because there's a lot of them. youtu.be/dRyPY4T8NTc

Break out, before you get bum rushed

It's new video day! And as it was my birthday yesterday, I'm looking at a couple of games I bought around my birthday in years gone by: youtu.be/QmB3yYWjEh4

Just 24 hours left to go on this bundle itch.io/s/169922/kit...

I've been avoiding posting the ko-fi lately because people have already helped me so much this year, especially with Artorias's medical and cremation costs, but my personal financial situation is still precarious and these bills just won't stop coming. ko-fi.com/alienbob/goa...

It's creator day on itch where they don't take their usual cut so now is a great time to pick up 4 great games for the price of 1 itch.io/s/169922/kit...

Valve, do the right thing here: you need to put a big plastic handle on the back of the new Steam Machine.

if my job was involved in running the country and the country was going like ours was i would probably hang myself in a very public way like the nanny in "the omen"

A plea for help. 🙏 One of the lead playtesters of Blue Prince, Iggy, has polycystic kidney disease and has only a few months to find a living kidney donor. His story, contact and donor information can all be found on iggyland.org Please help us in sharing his story and getting the word out.💙

Cancel your weeknight plans, because it's finally here: Alien Bob's 4 hour foray into, that's right, the official video game adaptation of Kenneth Branagh's adaptation of William Shakespeare's Hamlet. Can't wait to dive into this after work.

Have you not peeped the new @nerdsonsafari.bsky.social video yet? …what’s wrong with you? (No like seriously, is everything okay? You can talk to us.)

You there. I want you to say, aloud, at some point today "I'm really glad I'm good at..." And then you're gonna say something you think you do pretty well. If you don't think you do anything pretty well, I want you to say "one little thing that makes me unique is..." And if you can't do either?
