HE'S BACK

*Melts into screen*

BLOOD WIZARD

Thank you for watching! Yeah, with so many options out there, sometimes it just feels best to try to pay respect to certain games without dwelling on them for too long. Sometimes it's just about getting it to the people who it's a perfect fit for, even if that's not always me!

Having my videos called "essential" by actual, good-at-their-jobs media critics is SUPER weird.

Like, I thought we were all under the same impression that I am a disheveled man on the street rambling about how Steam store tags offend me

But I'll try to live up to it, Magen!

No. What does Kenneth even need the ring for? Why does he want it back? He doesn't have fingers. He's almost exclusively legs and mouth

Uh oh, they're Watching Out For Me™

This month I played games that hurt my eyes and made me feel weird. @necroticspider.bsky.social, @clone.bsky.social, @bysameng.com and @vikintor.bsky.social are among the devs here on bsky making surreal, playable, mind-bending art. I'm interested in seeing what they all do next.

Well, this month's video is taking longer than I wanted. Life is setting up every obstacle it can to prevent you from seeing it. But we persist.

In the meantime, maybe check out this cool video on Empty Shell lore. I think it's the creator's first, which is insane cause that game has a LOT of lore

I like how this is also kind of just Aggretsuko

It can be hard to make friends after you get memory-wiped and shoved inside a death mech. You should still try, though.

So, from what I've learned

Cons of living in the DG universe:
> occasional organ robbery
> no flavor in the food :(
> you may be exploded depending on net worth

Pros:
> 20 movies exist
> survivable amounts of oxygen (usually)
> you might see photos of other people’s pets from the before-times

All you really need to survive the post-apocalypse is unlimited airhorns, some cool stickers, and a hype man.

JUST biscuits? No butter or jam or gravy or nothing?

Der Geist: Dark Tales from a Brutal Mecha Dungeon Crawler YouTube video by Bare Metal Bryan

Happy New Year, folks. I spent a good chunk of December trying to wrap my head around this mech-themed dungeon crawler series by @yomigael.bsky.social.

It was very hard. And very fun. And I think you can tell the exact moment I lost my mind while playing through it. 🐁

I finally got to watch this! Yeah it's super on brand for WKW. Just an hour and a half of the world's most heart-wrenching and uncomfortable situations with perfect cuts and beautiful lighting. Everything he makes feels like a fever dream

I also watched My Blueberry Nights and... did not enjoy that

Just keep going bro

#pixelart

Yeah, it is Flash. It was a 2010s spin-off from his appearances in the Guardians comics. I don't remember seeing Howard in what I read of it. That said, I still need to get the physical copies and finish it!

I have never even seen Darkhawk before but I feel like I can relate as the world's last Venom: Space Knight enthusiast

Thank you for the shout out! I'm glad you like the videos!

I'm back from under my rock again, with more stuff to share.

Shout out to @warkus.bsky.social, @katanalevy.bsky.social, and @jrhudepohl.bsky.social for making some of the best games I've played this month.

Returning to this to say thank you! It was wild ride, glad you enjoyed

Wong Kar Wai's BLOSSOMS SHANGHAI | Official Trailer YouTube video by CRITERION

Finally revisiting this — did you see this new trailer???

(Realizing this may have come off as facetious — The answer is yes, keep making what you can, and someone, somewhere, will find it and be grateful for you.)

Yeah, probably. Only one way to find out though, you know?

You know it's a rough time when the real voice comes out.

Shoutout to the Wendys and the Frankies.

I know who watches what I make. Buncha benchmaxxing DS2-playing matcha drinkers

There's lore?! Well now I need more information

Oh my god, this looks atrocious. I'm totally getting it
