Getting back into the swing of things, dying a lot, but making actual progress. #BioShock #videogames #gaming #letsplay #gameplay #genxgamer #genx youtu.be/XVLEbngFy5U?...

Hey, so I picked too long a game again so the viewership has cratered as I near the end. Always lifts the ol' spirit. #BioShock #gaming #gamingover50 #gameplay #letsplay #fpsgame #videogame #videogames youtu.be/2hRM9-ZbyIY?...

I'm back on my BS — BioShock, that is. After more than a month away, I'm back to my first-time playthrough of a #gaming classic. I THINK I'm progressing toward the endgame? I have one more photo to get for #sandercohen 's masterpiece. #videogame #bioshock #fpsgame youtu.be/Lv9yOHxcT50?...

Here are the other five free games on Epic from the #VancouverFilmSchool #GameDesign program. If I had realized I could turn the mouse sensitivity down on Rage Quit, I'd have had an easier time. But they're all beautiful, and I'd definitely play full versions of some. youtu.be/FXdLNyV8RWA?...

I found these on the Epic Games store @epicgames.alt.store.ap.brid.gy and was extremely impressed. The students in the #VancouverFilmSchool #GameDesign program put together some beautiful, intriguing, and in some cases, insanely fun games. #gaming #gameplay #videogames youtu.be/YJVoDvElYCI?...

Hey, whose phone is this? How do we get it back to them? We'll just snoop a little bit... Oh, this person has some fascinating secrets... #videogames #gameplay #letsplay #itchio #itchiogames #dearvillages #dianelandais youtu.be/lcATb5TBAQk?...

It's still Pride month, so I combed through the #LGBTQIA games on @itch.io to see if I could find some little gems to play together. "Do gay crime" was definitely my favorite. I can't find the creators on here to tag them, but the game links are in the video description. youtu.be/l2Zz8MCBjqo?...

I get the true ending (I think) of Our Life: Beginnings & Always, a highly customizable, choice-rich #visualnovel from @gbpatch.bsky.social . I had quibbles with some of the writing, but appreciate how much the player can personalize it. Next time I'm going for Baxter, tho. youtu.be/f_jVouWKvbI?...

We continue Pride month with this game's final summer in @gbpatch.bsky.social 's Our Life: Beginnings & Always. Our love interest acts more like a boyfriend and less like a shy puppy. Our moms celebrate their anniversary. Our friends finally couple up LIKE I SAID THEY WOULD. youtu.be/KGyG8M9MxOk?...

I took a break from Our Life to explore the #lgbtq options on #itchio and found this little #walkingsimulator by @purplesloth.studio for exploring different gender identities and expressions. I enjoyed it so much, I inadvertently dressed to match one of the rooms. youtu.be/XpWkGAufgTc?...

Unbeknownst to him, our primary love interest nearly stops being one because of the way he eats potato chips. But he declares his identity for the first time and states his true feelings. @gbpatch.bsky.social #lgbt #lgbtqia #visualnovel #videogame youtu.be/r0B1jTGIoDI?...

I have to admit, I struggled a bit with the moments here, and only partly because I was running on 4 hours of sleep. Apparently my character could've gotten really upset at the events in the first half, and I still have no idea why. #visualnovel #gaming #lgbtqia youtu.be/p3VL2bTj8k0?...

The newest part of the story is up and my new favorite character has arrived. I'd be grateful if you watched because I was up until 4 a.m. getting it edited and I'm not sure if chairs were really designed for humans or if the color green is real anymore youtu.be/ejVFq10vgSA?...

Name your favorite portrayal of the devil in film.

Our #visualnovel gets into the nitty gritty, and I overthought the hell out of these choices. They made sense to me with how I've been playing it, and what I felt was appropriate for a person with two #lgbtqia moms, but is still only 13 in this game section. #pridegaming youtu.be/FWcE6RO7A48?...

I'm a full day late, so here's half of what would have been tomorrow's 4-hour episode in advance. Totally because I love my subscribers, not because it was easier to edit this way 👀 #visualnovel #pridegaming #lgbtqiagame #videogame #gaming #pridemonth #gaymer youtu.be/Kif2J8tqvuc?...

I dug deep last night and managed to record, edit, and package a 2½ hour video at the last minute so it would get out on time today. This is a longer game than I thought, so I've got to keep current! #lgbt #lgbtq #lgbtqia #lgbtgames #lgbtqiagames #gaming #pridemonth youtu.be/q8o8r5dUZ6U?...

Happy Pride, everyone! I will be spending the month of June playing #LGBTQIA focused games, starting with "Our Life: Beginnings & Always." Part 1 is up today; this is the childhood meeting and initial forming of bonds. #pridegaming #visualnovel #gameplay youtu.be/XMJ8YPwJqV0?...

Computer had a conniption on Friday, I took it to Geek Squad on Saturday, and I got it back late afternoon Sunday. Got (nearly) everything reinstalled in the evening, and I got this little nugget recorded and edited by the wee hours. New video was up on time today. youtu.be/aH9qT4El-64?...

400!

Some real weird art on this level. #bioshock #videogames #propaganda #gameplay #letsplay #genxgaming #MomGamesBadly youtu.be/xgn5UG5aVTQ?...

This game from @valhallacats.bsky.social gave me all the #GenX Don Bluth nostalgia, up to and including tears. It was worth having to do platforming to get to the end. And yes, I did spot the homage to Gris in the middle. #videogame #gameplay #letsplay youtu.be/x_0_CQsFXr8

Sorry for the delay with today's episode. You can blame Bobby Darin for that. I had to replace some audio and re-render, and despite taking 2½ hours to render the first time, it took 8 hours to render the second time. (You can blame #davinciresolve for that.) youtu.be/PUl9RZYVE9s?...

If you see this post an anime you love #animesky

So this is what happens when I record a bunch of random #itchio games and then slap two together because it makes a fun half-hour video. There's a lot of blue in both, I guess? I played How to Grill Sausage and Lil' Waver, and they're both a bit odd. #duckinthedark #gortwen youtu.be/HyKzFgnxYXQ?...

OK, looking at how my numbers fall off as a game series progresses from part 1 to part 9 and higher, it's clear that I should stick to shorter games. Can anyone give me #recommendations for good #videogames that take 10 hours or less to complete, maybe 15 at the outside? #gaming #gamergirl #games

Unfortunately, yes the bees. I'm back to #BioShock, trying to make the air safe to breathe again, and these ungrateful bastards keep trying to perforate me. I must brave the bees, over and over, then fight off the people trying to stop the mist dispersal, over and over. youtu.be/CnU6P5bCJw4?...

Today's video is more about the audio. While there are some gameplay choices, this story puts everything into the writing and lets your imagination fill in the visuals for you. It's a dark story and I did my best to do it justice. #visualnovel #jellyfo0sh youtu.be/68ignhKetfA?...

There sure seem to be a lot of smokers in this winery. That could explain all those charred, glowing remains. #bioshock #blindplaythrough #firsttimeplaying #genx #gaming #videogame #gameplay youtu.be/7hdFfRnBLG4?...

I've done another threefer video, with three games found on itch.io, this time all from the same dev, @digitalmosaicgames.bsky.social The retro style and writing are charming, and they're all enjoyable in different ways. youtu.be/VhOnvJFZ7Us?...

BioShock continues, this time fighting the hoi polloi for the good cheese and honey at the Farmers Market. #videogame #bioshock #gamermom youtu.be/_c3WJmGvNow?...

This game fascinates me. It's the Moby-Dick of platforming games, where 2/3 of it is the regular game, and the other 1/3 is about whal— uh, tofu making. Also, there are crabs with knives, bulls with pasta cutters, and dancing gorillas. One of my rare streams. #platformgames youtu.be/-zXE1huXPrM

The latest installment in my BioShock series is up! I continue to consume resources almost as fast as I acquire them, but I pick up a few upgrades whilst finding the one rosebush in Rapture. #BioShock #fps #gamijg #videogames #turrets youtu.be/70liOOy7QUM?...

I'm alternating episodes between one-off indie games and BioShock, to give folks a chance to catch up with the longer series. Today is a witty #storytelling game from @akzidenz.bsky.social . I got very into it. Don't ask me what accent I'm doing, because I don't know either. youtu.be/P0z8YxeGLSE?...

5 topics I could give an hour-long talk on: 1. The importance and appropriate use of the serial comma 2. How Violet Bick made the biggest mistake of her life by not climbing Mount Bedford with George Bailey that one time 3. Watership Down is the Odyssey but better 4. Ireland 5. Stardew Valley

Gosh, I love an empty area in a #videogame before the sh*t hits the fan. I have a fun time exploring in this episode, checking out the booze-filled smugglers' area and starting recon on Arcadia. I don't get to ride in the submarine, though. 😢 youtu.be/iwV0Sp55lQI?...

I found this game concept intriguing; verify your humanity by looking at the photos carefully, and interacting with the artificial intelligence. But these photos start getting uncomfortably weird... @realjakub #indiehorror #itchio #itchiohorror #creeoy #scarygames #horrorgames youtu.be/7EQeDpo8-3E

Working my way up the ladder, bit by bit...

I get to redeem myself (kind of) for my less than stellar performance in part 8, sweeping through the whole level, picking up loot (and burning through first aid kits nearly as fast as I can pick them up), and taking on another Rosie to rescue the next Little Sister. youtu.be/rxdAc9bI48E?...

Here's part 7 of BioShock. Gosh, those McDonaghs love to fight. (They don't know how to refer to themselves in the plural, though.) Took me ages to get through them all! #BioShock #2KGames #videogames #dystopia #plasmids #gaming #genxgamer #momgamesbadly youtu.be/hA_TCsxRRvs?...

Taking a quick break from the BioShock playthrough (part 7 will be out on Wednesday) with a group of three cool pieces of interactive genre fiction from itch.io. Hope you enjoy! @inkycosmos.com @ellisdex.itch.io @kwananntan.bsky.social #visualnovel #gameplay youtu.be/YMuH1o-gyig?...

Finally I have a sense of progress! Also channel progress, as episode 1 of the playlist is my fastest-growing long-form video, and I've picked up a fair number (for me) of new subscribers. Hopefully I can keep the momentum going... #bioshock #2kGames #videogames #gameplay youtu.be/a37mI1N_itY?...

I honestly lost count, and did not torture myself by keeping track during editing. I died a LOT in this episode, trying to make my way through the fisheries. #bioshock #fpsgames #videogames #gaming #gameplay #letsplay #badgaming youtu.be/Egy1qena-q0?...

Sorry it's a little late today; I goofed the file format and had to re-render. This episode, I deal with the horrifying Dr. Steinman and rescue my first Little Sister (which means taking down a Big Daddy). I was not ready. #bioshock #2kgames #videogame #gameplay #gamer youtu.be/7NV_grvxEds
