NEW VIDEO - “Was I ‘Game Design YouTuber-Pilled’?”
Let’s take a look back at some of my older, more controversial videos and see if they still hold up today.
Spoilers…I have some opinions. Grab some popcorn and enjoy the ride with me 🍿

It's the only way.
Paraphrasing part of "Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain" but adults are afraid to draw because they feel like they should be better at art by virtue of being older. We have to put in the time to make up for all the art we didn't make growing up.
Hell yeah, well deserved.
Had a solo Dev reach out to me about their indie game this morning.
The steam page looks interesting but what's this, they disclosed Ai use on the itch.io page but not on steam? Shame.
I love talking about indie games, but that's exactly why I'm not sure I can do it anymore.
Hell yeah I should, again.
NEW VIDEO!!! I'm back from hiatus with my longest one yet! Let's talk about RESIDENT EVIL!!!
youtu.be/T6GKlF9nkRA?...
Yeah I don't typically watch those myself, and I'm not the type to make a video on something I didn't really like anyway. Being a hater is exhausting, I'm too lazy for all that lol.
Yeah I've got a small pile of half finished "if you can't say anything nice" scripts. This one is part of a series retrospective though, so you know how it is.
NEW VIDEO: The Steamworld games are brilliant. Image & Form's tantalising, genre spanning shared steampunk universe is full of great little ludic treats, but with the future of the franchise looking a little shaky, I wanted to take the opportunity to bang the drum for some true indie treasures:
Do your one good deed for the day:

Me, halfway through making a video: this feels really negative, I bet if I replayed the game, I'd find more to like about it.
*replays game*
Me: No, no I was right the first time.
Progress pic for the next video
My only saving grace is that it's 3 games instead of 1, so it feels like making progress as each section is done
What they don't tell you about making Youtube game reviews is that for every half hour of runtime in your video, the chance of silly gags increases by seven hundred percent.
The next video is looking to be about two hours long. I am filled with regret.

Wizardry Tale of the Forsaken Land was an absolute blast to play through... and even though releasing the video for it took nearly a year, I'm glad I got to cover a game I genuinely think doesn't get enough love. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJYq...
Someone is mad that your video has gotten about 5 thousand times as much attention as their entire dogshit bandcamp album, but I wouldn't be one to sling mud in your comment section.
Please watch @itsmeamykate.bsky.social spit fire. Games isn't industry, it's love.

Couldn't be me.

What's the worst game you've ever played? youtu.be/rWa7skBaNbI
I couldn't reply on that other thread but lol at that shit. I'll emulate games I physically own just for the sake of save states.
I know only like 3 people played it, but I don't know if any game has ever gone from "this is amazing, I'm really enjoying this" to "I hate this, why did you do that" for me as thoroughly as Returnal has.
My new game is Philip K. Dickensian.
This is a little tour of the Smilie Shelter Company compound.
You will be exploring this place and many others Immersive Sim style.
