An Attempt at Sonic R (Windows) 2-Player Gameplay
Key word "attempt."
So my best friend was visiting me over this past week and we played a lot of games together during our down time. We both love all sorts of games, good and bad, and for the fun of it one of the bad games we decided to try together was Sonic R. I have never shown any multiplayer on this channel (aside from Candy Land and Chutes and Ladders which I don't really think count), so I also took the opportunity to record some footage of this! This is of us going through all five tracks once over, and doing one game of hunt-the-balloons (which, after watching this, I think you'll quickly find out why we only did it once).
So the reason I worded that title that way was to prevent anyone from expecting expert-level gameplay. My buddy had never played this before, and it's the understatement of the century to say this is not a beginner friendly game (in fact, one experiment I want to try one day is getting four people who have never played this together and making them try it out to see what happens, because I think that'd be hilarious). The track layouts are extremely confusing to someone who has never seen them before, and because so many of the tracks are built more around the fact that they have hidden items to hunt down rather than to be coherent courses, there are tons of pathways that take you way out of the way of the action, and certain ring doors are deceptive because their only purpose is to conceal items rather than open shortcuts.
I don't have too much to say about the tracks themselves. We had a few attempts that went so badly that we agreed to redo them and try again, so there is some editing going on here. The balloon race was utterly ridiculous as we spent almost five straight minutes looking for those last two measly balloons that were hidden in extremely obscure places (naturally, I sped up most of the searching because I know nobody wants to just watch five straight minutes of nothing happening). Otherwise I think all went fairly well.
There are plenty of videos that cover the single-player content of this game, but naturally much fewer that cover multiplayer, and despite how often we flubbed our gameplay on both accounts, we had a ball playing this together. It was cooler to let him do it on one of my old computers (a Pentium 3), as he had never really used one before. Both of us used Microsoft Sidewinder pads for this video. Maybe I'll be able to recruit more people for multiplayer in the future, who knows. For now, I hope you enjoy this video!

Jeopardy! 2nd Edition (Windows, 2000) Gameplay

I'll take "Clever Description One-Liners" for 800, Alex. It's been a while, hasn't it? When we last saw Jeopardy! on this channel, Alex Trebek had only recently passed away. In looking up videos though, I had trouble finding any uncommentated footage of this one, so here we are. Plus, I already did Wheel of Fortune's counterpart version of this game, so it seems appropriate. This is Artech Stud...
Mario's Game Gallery/FUNdamentals (Windows) Gameplay
Переглядів 27 тис.2 роки тому
Also known as how to get sick of Mario's voice in no time flat. So, this game actually has seen footage uploaded of it on a multitude of occasions, but every video I've seen is of the DOS version. There was an enhanced Windows (and presumably Macintosh) port that features a higher resolution and better visual detail, and I decided I would go ahead and fill that void, so here we are! There isn't...
Precision Skateboarding "Walkthrough"

That is to say, can one ever truly fully complete a game as phenomenal as this? Welcome to Precision Skateboarding, a very obscure and forgotten skateboarding game. That is truly a shame, because there is absolutely nothing that compares to how beautiful this is. Anybody who was gushing over Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 2 has clearly never experienced this. To be fair, this game doesn't have a whol...

It's not properly showcased in most videos in its raw ...

Not only did Mario go missing, so did all of the game's artistic direction. (Just a heads up I had to record audio and video seperately for this walkthrough, so if the audio sync seems off at certain places, my apologies about it I did the best I could and I think I came quite close in every case but hopefully it's not too big a problem) One of the weirdest things to ever come out of the Mario ...

A remake of the very first Reader Rabbit game ever released, this is a game that's already been recorded on multiple occasions but I thought I'd go ahead and do a video on it myself just for fun. This is also of the lesser-seen Macintosh version, though it's mostly identical to the Windows one. This is a pretty bas...

Because "Occasionally Growing Garden" just wasn't snappy enough. This game was hiding deep beneath the recesses of my memory. I had it as a kid and vaguely remember liking it, until I ended up snapping the disc in half because of me being dumb and bored. This is a children's game centered on, shocker, gardens. You pick one of three gardens to grow things in, pick your seeds, plant and water the...

In loving memory of Regis Philbin: 1931-2020 If ever there were a period piece of early 2000s television, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire was that incarnate for game shows of the time.

An Adventures in Odyssey computer game? To borrow the colloquialism, surely you jest! Yes, really. This is the first game to be based off a Christian-centered radio drama for kids that has run since 1987. About a year ago, I started listening to the show while at work, and I've liked it a lot. I'm young at heart, and I am a Christian as well, so I guess it wasn't too surprising. It helps that i...

    When I was real little playing this game, I would mainly get the Horst one, then the Nadine one, then the Claw one third, and one time with Rosie. I don’t think I remembered getting the ending with Gill or Pierre. But, Horst & Pierre’s screams when they get bit is hilarious. And I like Horst & Claw’s ending pictures the best!
