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?...

Lotta crawlspace doors around here, which I genuinely enjoyed, because I didn't realize until editing that I was crawling through manure almost every time I went through one 😆 #BioShock #gaming #videogames #genx #badgamer #2kgames #arcadia youtu.be/8gra72hzdhU

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?...

Peachy is the worst. #bioshock #gameplay #videogames #gaming #dystopian youtu.be/p9Me5Tm5da4?...

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

I increase my turning speed a bit and start finding all these glowing bottles lying around. They turn out to be pretty helpful 😉 #bioshock #plasmids #incinerate #gameplay #letsplay #vudeogame #gaming #firstpersonshooter #momgamesbadly youtu.be/gjLX-ZCpC5Y?...

Part 2 is up! Watch me panic under fire and blaze through my first aid kits! But I do learn how to make friends with robots and cheat vending machines, so there's that. #bioshock #videogames #gaming #gameplay #letsplay #genx #fpsgames youtu.be/Oxwp6VHre9A?...

I've never played BioShock, until now. My aim is terrible and I panic under fire; an I going to make through this game? #bioshock #fps #firstpersonshooter #combatgames #2Kgames #plasmids #videogames #gaming #gameplay #letsplay #genxgamer youtu.be/lyW0bdX7ndE?...

New channel milestone!

With my last series complete, it's time for some indie one-episode games. First up: Midnight Ritual, by PugsGames, available on itch.io. #indiehorror #indiehorrorgame #indiegame #horrorgame #summoning #ritual #occultgame #russiangame #7deadlysins #sevendeadlysins youtu.be/JzQJbAnQuoQ?...

Here it is, the finale of my Promise Mascot Agency series. (Sorry it's late, it took 15 HOURS to render, and another hour to upload!) It's full of excitement, upheaval, and dear lord sooooo many pep talks. Do we win, or d¡e honorably? #japan #kyushu #gaming #genx #mascot youtu.be/tR86AaBrnvY?...

It's a bit late, but here's the penultimate episode of Promise Mascot Agency! Today we learn All the Secrets, get all the #lore, and get set up for the final showdown! @kaizengameworks.com #pinkymascot #yakuzagame #rpg #videogames #gameplay #letsplay #genxgamer youtu.be/hpiVrOPk0FU?...

Wait, you wanted me to land tidily on these roofs to get my goodies? No dice, pal! I did manage a tricky island landing, though, and got the best possible reward. Also, we got to troll the mayor. #promisemascotagency #japan #kyushu #videogames #gameplay @kaizengameworks.com youtu.be/GL2r1L4BjxU?...

We're almost fully upgraded now, but we were missing the way to get objects hidden atop buildings, until now. My only complaint is that there isn't a lot of guidance on how to steer... @kaizengameworks.com #japam #kyushu #glider #videogames #gaming #crashingout #pilot youtu.be/rkptrCp8bTw?...

In which we sneak into a corrupt old substance abuser's den to obtain evidence of his criminality and force him out of office. *Sigh*...if only. @kaizengameworks.com #gaming #videogames #mascots #japan #kyushu #genxgamer #gameplay youtu.be/gBgzbQ3tdcg?...

Determination pays off! I enter that completely fenced area in District S to find the final items for two more quests, and get all the mascots to maximum life satisfaction. I also start cleaning up this trashy little town. @kaizengameworks.com #kyushu #japan #recycling youtu.be/u6U9WaiQ1Vk?...

I keep a reliable 2 p.m. M-W-F posting schedule for my long-form videos; I got this up just in the nick of time. This episode, I manage to catch some spirit foxes who ran away with the truck upgrade plans. It only took 20 episodes! #gamingvideos @kaizengameworks.com youtu.be/KvWfltkerNw?...

I'm possessed by the need to get the shrine achievement, so even without the boat upgrade, we take to the water to "drive" to one of the outlying islands. Pinky officially becomes Queen of the pirates 👑🏴‍☠️ @kaizengameworks.com #kyushu #videogames #gaming #promisemascitagency youtu.be/5g9pYYokxVs?...

Mom Drives Badly is back this episode! Zero upgrades to one's base vehicle forces one to be a little creative. But we finish a quest and win the final mayoral debate! @kaizengameworks.com #baddriving #mascots #businessgame #resourcemanagement #videogames #gameplay #letsplay youtu.be/VyKnz2DUMEs?...

It's my first self age-restricted episode, as I was concerned that YouTube wouldn't be happy about the non-graphic #BDSM #shibari reference. If you're over 18, please watch it for just a couple of minutes so the algorithm doesn't 100% ignore it. Thank you in advance! youtu.be/Nsmx6icpreo?...

Will they rip our souls out of our bodies and do ghost stuff with them, or will they agree to work for our talent agency? We visit the Creepy Apartments, the Mines, and the Haunted Tunnel(s). We also hire a cutesy matcha-roll cat. Only one mascot left to recruit! #videogames youtu.be/P4VDTFl7U1w?...

Today we upgraded everything and everyone we could. We also recruited a... vivisected eel? He's pretty unnerving, and extremely enthusiastic about choosing vegetarian alternatives to traditional seafood dishes. #promisemascotagency #gameplayvideos #letsplay #sushi youtu.be/Dlf5LfxwgGI?...

Tokihira seems nervous about something. Pinky is just enjoying him being sweaty. We're taking care of the remote areas of the island this round, and the Edge of the Island is as remote as it gets. @kaizengameworks.com #promisemascotagency #genxgaming #baddriving youtu.be/MW0DSJVVz68

Today, we aim for the island's summit. On the way, we recruit four different mascots, get trapped in the haunted village, investigate the mines' ownership, find a stray kitten, scope out the Mayor's house, and force our crappy truck the last of the way up the mountain. youtu.be/tERmvcsLXnc

Hey, I actually finished a side quest! She's going to be a big help on some of the mascot challenges. #resourcemanagement #videogame #gaming #mascotgame #oldergamer #genxgamer #yakuzagame youtu.be/JtpoAGg5tus?...
