On December 1, 2024, he became the latest person to hold our top prize, the S2C Casual Competition Controller. As of December 1, 2025, he is still holding it and became the first and only person to hold it for one whole year! Congrats to @thekiwidragon.bsky.social on this milestone!

📺 NEW VIDEO Happy Crash Community Day! 20 years ago, we received our third racing game in the Crash franchise, Tag Team Racing. Get ready for chicken-chucking, explosions galore, and a lot of Uranus as we explore what made this spinoff so crazy fun. youtu.be/19LdisvSwoA

📺 NEW VIDEO! Happy #CrashCommunityDay!! To celebrate, here's my retrospective on "Crash 4: It's About Time!" After 5 years, what do I and the community think of this game? We hope you enjoy! www.youtube.com/watch?v=_BGQ...

Happy #CrashCommunityDay, everyone! Unfortunately, the notion of making a video and/or streaming this year kind of went out the window partly due to tech issues and being a bit under the weather. On the plus side, here's a Crash Bandicoot keyring I found out in the wild!

BREAKING NEWS: Television Takeover Grand Final winner @thekiwidragon.bsky.social is confirmed as an entrant for Flash Frenzy! Can he make it to another Grand Final and defend his S2C Casual Competition Controller there for a second time? Or will one of the 8 other players end his impressive run?

Flash Frenzy, eh? As the reigning, defending S2C Casual Competition Controller holder, I am obligated to defend my crown after my victory in Television Takeover. I'M IN. You can consider this my official entry announcement for Flash Frenzy. I'll see you soon @square2charge.bsky.social.

COMING SOON! With the Television Takeover now concluded, we can exclusively reveal the next Square Rally event: Flash Frenzy! Hosted by See Jay See and Bobbledink, this event will feature classic Adobe Flash web browser games! Watch the trailer NOW: ⬇️ youtu.be/asA7o40EMHo

I had a lot of fun with this match. A big thank you to Skater for being a great opponent as always. Bringing his competitive spirit, banter, and general good nature to this Grand Final match. And a big thank you to Gizmocat11 for returning as a special guest host!

@thekiwidragon.bsky.social outlasts Skater6453 with a score of 4-1 to win the Television Takeover Grand Final! Not only does he keep his 303 day reign as S2C Casual Competition Controller holder alive, but he also becomes the first person to defend the controller in a Square Rally event!

@thekiwidragon.bsky.social and Skater6453 have faced friends, rivals, ex-tag team partners, one even faced his own lover. Now they do battle in the Grand Final of Television Takeover. Who will be the S2C Casual Competition Controller holder? Watch here: ⬇️ youtu.be/6FrvQJ5Fdsc

Skater is someone I have a HUGE amount of respect for. We have faced each other many times, be it one-on-one, in multi-person matches, and even tag team matches. But this is the first time, we meet one-on-one in a Square Rally event. And I will do everything it takes to win.

With a reign over 300 days as the S2C Casual Competition Controller holder, @thekiwidragon.bsky.social has been on a roll since December 2024. But before he faces Skater6453, take a moment to watch and relive how both players made it this far! Watch here: ⬇️ youtu.be/InNh5dglxfQ

With the Bronze Final match concluded, only the Television Takeover Grand Final remains. A Best-3-Out-Of-5 match will determine who will be the S2C Casual Competition Controller Holder: @thekiwidragon.bsky.social or Skater6453. Watch the match rundown here: ⬇️ youtu.be/nFtJIdU9zts

Newly crowned as the S2C Tag Team Controller Holders, @kayotie.bsky.social and @bobbledink.bsky.social face off in a Best-2-Out-Of-3 Bronze Final match to see who will claim third place, featuring games based off Friends, South Park and House M.D! Watch the full match here! ⬇️ youtu.be/YhDLCZLPkdc

It's been an honour to carry the banner for Square 2 Charge aloft for close to a year. I don't know how much longer I'll stay atop the mountain. I'd like to hold out for a full calendar year, but we'll see. Time will tell... But first, the Television Takeover Grand Final! 📺

NOBODY DOES IT BETTER. @thekiwidragon.bsky.social has managed to reign for 300 days as our S2C Casual Competition Controller holder, having won it in the final round of the Jackbox Gauntlet back in December 2024! Here's to 300 days of pride and prestige, and hopefully many more to come!

SIX THOOOOOUUUSAAAAAAAAAND! Thank you to everyone who has subscribed to my channel, ever since I decided to take a chance and switch to Crash Bandicoot and Spyro videos way back in September 2019 during the height of the Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled days!

So close... I can almost taste it.

ICYMI: The team of Kayotidink (@kayotie.bsky.social and @bobbledink.bsky.social) defeated Skating Dragons (S2C Casual Competition Controller Holder @thekiwidragon.bsky.social and Skater6453) to claim the vacant S2C Tag Team Controllers! You can check the match out here! ⬇️ youtu.be/zOOEusJ8Ljg?...

It was a delightful experience joining @krystalvixon.bsky.social on the SpyroCast! Go give the episode a listen, if you haven't already!

🎙️ NEW SPYROCAST Today on SpyroCast, @thekiwidragon.bsky.social and I discuss the possibility of playable Elora, character teamups, and turning the Sorceror into Malefor’s yes-man. youtu.be/Hn_852F_I08

Just wanted to thank everyone for the birthday wishes here on Bluesky, as well as Discord and Twitter! Didn't properly count how many there were, but there were certainly a fair few! As for how I celebrated my 28th, I just had a quiet one at home with my partner and our cats.

Came back to Bluesky today to see if there would be balloons here for my birthday. Was disappointed. @bsky.app where are my balloons at?

EB Games NZ had their Cheap Tuesday special yesterday, and to my surprise, there was a deal for Crash Team Rumble for $15. All copies on PS4 and PS5 sold out both in-stores across the country and online. If you still play Rumble, prepare for some new players from New Zealand.

HERE COMES MY SON, AND I SAY: HE'S AN E G G But seriously, go play Crash Bandicoot 2: N-Tranced, very underrated game.

Hello people, and welcome back to Crash Bandicoot Music Daily! Today, we have a song from a boss battle that I believe is among the Top 10 of the boss battles in the entire series. Enjoy! N. Trance Boss Battle Theme - Crash Bandicoot 2: N-Tranced (Game Boy Advance, 2003)

Tonight in Kiwi's Kitchen, it's a double helping! A 2-for-1 special! On the menu tonight, we have pasta spirals in a modified bolognese sauce, with added cheese, to make the sauce extra cheesy. Topped with a cheese garnish and a spritz of pepper. (1/2)

I think I'm getting the knack of this dough-making business!

Hello people, and welcome back to Crash Bandicoot Music Daily! Today, we had a special request in our DMs from @ZorroOnda, and it's an upbeat little number! Enjoy! Hang Eight/Air Crash/Plant Food (Bonus Round) Theme - Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back (PlayStation, 1997)

Really miss playing the Steam Playtest Beta of The Karters 2: Turbo Charged right about now. It's such a fun game, like Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled and ModNation Racers had a baby with an immense amount of community made mods. Give The Karters 2 a look and wishlist it on Steam. You'll love it!

The hype I had for this game was immense. And this trailer was fantastic. Using Fatboy Slim's 'Rockefeller Skank' was a brilliant choice, definitely added to the hype.

Found this old clip from like 2021 or 2022 on my phone's SD card of my old cat Floof watching me play the Spyro Reignited Trilogy and being obsessed with Sparx. I miss this little guy. RIP Floof.

On tonight's menu in Kiwi's Kitchen: Nachos with a homemade cheese sauce comprised of flour and butter to make a roux, milk, salt and pepper to taste, and edam cheese, combined with a chopped green onion. And finished with a sprinkling of pepper and an onion garnish. Delish!

I'm thinking about making videos again on YouTube at some point really soon. I wanted a new channel intro, which was short, sweet, and summed up my channel. So, here is my new channel intro. Made by me, and inspired by Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time. I am quite proud of how it turned out.

- Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled - Pokémon Diamond - Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout

It's wild to think I loved this game during the beta period, to the point my partner and I couldn't put it down. Then it came out, and not long after, it just didn't click with me anymore. Not saying it was the fault of Crash Team Rumble, though. Mid-Late 2023 was just a very ROUGH time for me.

🗓️ Today is the 2nd anniversary of Crash Team Rumble! 🥭 #CrashTeamRumble

🗓️ Today is the 6th anniversary of Crash Team Racing: Nitro Fueled! 🏁 #CTRNitroFueled

Team Sonic Racing - Launched May 2019 on PS4, Xbox One, Switch and PC, sold 3.5 million copies. Gets a sequel in the form of Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds. Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled - Launched June 2019 on PS4, Xbox One, and Switch, sold 10 million copies. No sequel or follow-up. Madness.

Now we're well and truly back!

Hello people, and welcome back to Crash Bandicoot Music Daily! To mark this return, here's the first track that popped into my head, and it's a quite triumphant tune! Enjoy! Toad Village, Gee Wiz, and Double Header Theme - Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped (PlayStation, 1998) #CrashBandicoot #Crash #PS1

Welp… my job scheduled me no shifts for the second week in a row… I have to try my best to make ends meet with some art commissions. I will be running discounted prices in the meantime

Didn't draw anything for CTR Nitro-Fueled's 6th anniversary, so here's a repost of my 5th anniversary fanart. #CrashBandicoot #CrashTeamRacing #CrashTeamRacingNitroFueled #LizBandicoot #Fanart #CrashBandicootFanart

Anyway, now I'm back. Here's a homemade pizza I made tonight. Danish salami and onion, with a whole lot of cheese, with a base sauce made of tomato paste. The actual pizza base itself was also homemade (first time ever), and I tried to make it a stuffed crust, but it didn't quite *pan* out. 😅🍕

Late last year, I took leave from Twitter, as I was no longer happy with that platform. Earlier this year, I also stepped away from Bluesky. It's been nice to step away from most social media, get some perspective on life, and enjoy it! I think I'm about ready to come back. :)

Crash Bandicoot fans, in particular Crash Team Racing fans, I know you are desperate for new content, or a 4K re-release of Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled with crossplay and a Steam port for PC. But listen, this is fake. A complete fabrication. And here's Jonathan Frakes to tell you as much:

Woo! Thanks for 200 followers, everyone! 😁

Hello people, and welcome back to Crash Bandicoot Music Daily! For today's offering, we have a boss theme. It's arguably one of the best boss themes in the entire Crash Bandicoot series! We hope you enjoy it! Dr. Nefarious Tropy Boss Battle Theme - Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped (PlayStation, 1998)

Crash Bandicoot Music Daily is back! I'll absolutely try my best to post *daily* but please take heed of the banner (particularly the part where it says, "We try!") Anyways, if you'd like to request a tune, flick the page a message! Now, if only we could have videos longer than a minute...
