I played some new (old) games this year, one of which really blew me away and is now up with some of my favorite games ever! (It's a pretty cool one, so you should find out why by watching... just sayin'...)

Starring the one and only, famous @Chaka2001

[In case anybody feels like they're being gaslit on this video changing its title/thumbnail a couple times, don't worry, it has. Basically, I knew I'd be nailing myself in the foot with this video's upload compared to my previous videos, but I didn't expect youtube to recommend it to the completely wrong audiences and destroy quite a bit of the traction I had made with the previous videos. My friend had suggested to change the title and thumbnail to attempt fixing the algorithm or whatever handles it, which I've done to unsurprisingly no real change. Although I sincerely thank him for supplying a thumbnail for me for the experiment, I am reverting back to something I feel is more my style. Oh well, it was worth a shot.]
