just finished Angeline Era and it was so good that i'm making a post to recommend it because i won't get to feature it in another indies video for at least a few months. it's got the childlike wonder. it's got the sauce. and the first boss is thirty-two fish which is maybe the funniest thing ever

merry freaking christmas everyone!!

Merry (early) Christmas! Your present this year is a fresh batch of indie game recommendations you NEED to try!... I know it’s not homemade cookies or anything, but it’s the best I could do over the internet. youtu.be/fb_uMKw7W8Q

mahjong and souls-like at opposite ends of the spider graph is very funny to me

i love that the one award Clair Obscur couldn't sweep was "most insane fans contest" against a gacha game

Unbeatable, Skate Story and Angeline Era all release within a few days of each other and you're telling me i have to EDIT ANOTHER VIDEO INSTEAD??? can we pause the video games please there are too many

after like two months of obsessing over every line of the script, i'm so glad that people are enjoying the Hades 2 video!! i've spent several hours replying to commenters about their thoughts on the story because they're well thought-out and kind and nuanced... and in 2025? online? incredible

Just when I thought writing about Hades 2 was gonna be easy, Supergiant decided to patch the ending. Which means the game technically has two endings now. So I spent two months making a 56 minute video about it! youtu.be/ZMNVWjilLFE

ranking my favorite silksong music was so fun that i decided to do it again for hades 2... which was even harder because this game is nothing but bangers!! youtu.be/ciufdTtl7hg

been cheating on sound voltex at the arcade... the big washing machine calls to me...

can't wait to list my favorite games on discord's new profile update!!

the discourse about silksong's difficulty makes me feel tired, so i decided to make a video ranking my favorite songs on the soundtrack instead :) youtu.be/RZQdvH9Idf8

very interesting to see people freak out at mario kart for being priced at $80 but then laud sonic crossworlds and call it the "mario kart killer" despite a $70 base price tag with a $20 digital deluxe season pass

yeah i think silksong is game of the year for me

silksong 👍

i'm looking at the notation for "Silksong into Nightreign Hard Mode into Hades 2 full release (probably) into Unbeatable into 5 other indie games" and i think that's a zero-to-death combo

just wanna give a shout-out to my longtime fans for watching me since... *checks date* 1970? wow, i wonder what YouTube was like back then...

i can hear the piano chords... bummm baaa bummmmmm

just rolled credits on donkey kong bananza

At first, I thought Nightreign was a bad roguelike with little replayability... but then I played it for over 100 hours and made an entire video about it. Whoops! youtu.be/uNsLy2Zh0ho

i worked with our director RJ to put together a web page compiling phone numbers, emails, and petitions where you can make your voice heard - protect queer artists and sex workers and tell payment processing companies to end their awful policies harming safe spaces for creative art

i love undertale... i hope i can make music that is 1/1000th as good as this game's soundtrack one day :)

persona 5 phantom x update: i was getting a bunch of comments saying the game is extremely "f2p friendly" and you don't have to spend, but it has now dropped to mixed reviews on steam because the devs aren't giving everyone as many free gems as they did on the chinese server. uhhhhh lmao

i discovered machine love in february through a roblox fps edit, and shortly after, constant companions became one of my favorite albums of all time. highly, HIGHLY recommend. this album is so good it inspires me to get better at making music! and just generally brings me joy!! i love music!!!

"i don't need to make another gacha video!" i tell myself for the third time before the release of the Persona 5 gacha game (i am lying) youtu.be/dPMkC_3JOBU

just when i think i'm done with gacha they put it in my damn editing software

ah shit... here we go again...

here are my (hastily chosen) top 10 games of the 21st century to hop on this fun little trend! i'm sorry that i haven't played dark souls or sekiro yet

i want to play final fantasy XIII. like all three of them maybe. will i ever find the time? probably not. but i've seen enough posts saying they are Good video games instead of Bad video games to make me very interested (and Blinded by Light is an all-timer battle theme)

in case one video about welcome tour wasn't enough (although it definitely was), here's a second video about welcome tour youtu.be/qhpVWopA8Ts

been getting a few snarky comments on the Welcome Tour video like "wow you really showed Nintendo by giving them money and not boycotting the Switch 2!" and it's like... c'mon guys. if no one buys the game then no one can critique it... how will anyone be able to tell you that it's not good...

i made a video about Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour because normally, i like Nintendo's weird projects and tech demos, but this one is pretty bad... AND it costs money. youtu.be/UtRA-0q5JAM

mongil star dive?... like... like honkai star rail? so many knockoff gacha games that they ran out of title ideas

maybe making every game into fortnite is a bad thing

got sad that i wouldn't be able to play the camera mini-game in Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour but then i plugged in my 12 year old logitech webcam and i guess it works

she clair on my obscur till i gommage

in a weird way i think i'm more excited for the switch 2's paid tech demo than i am for mario kart? i feel like i'm obsessed with nintendo's bizarre business decisions and experiments that no one wants to buy (because they are perfect video material)

seeing atlus tease a global release of the persona 5 gacha game just sent a wave of dread through my entire body

balatro ruined my productivity for 3 months and jimbo must now face the consequences

severance is a pretty good show i think

i used the one in my skull

it may have cost me my sanity but i am officially okay at marvel rivals

gacha fans getting excited that i name-dropped or showed footage of their favorite game in my video:

Merry (late) Christmas! Your present this year is a 50 minute video essay about the manipulative design of modern gacha games!… I couldn’t afford a PS5, sorry. youtu.be/4Y4w5OspCDs

my gift from santa came early this year and it was getting COVID while trying to finish one of my biggest videos ever i must not have been on the nice list...

nothing screams "i don't have a real job" more than three completed JRPGs and 100 hours of guilty gear

a 3D platformer wins game of the year but half the show is advertisements for like five different gacha games

youtube implemented a new creator feature called "Inspiration" (a tab that literally shows up BEFORE VIDEOS) and i know AI is dumb but it is almost impressive how incompetent it is at generating concepts and thumbnails

ok i might be working on a video about the manipulative design of gacha games but they got Jessie J on a jazzy theme song for Infinity Nikki and that shit is FIRE
