Here you'll mostly find videos from some of my favorite video games, but other stuff sneaks in from time to time, such as music for my gaming videos. Some videos are long, some are short, but most are minimally edited (I'm still learning how to edit). I'm doing this for fun, not for funding.
Whatever grabs my attention is what I'll make videos about, so older games are just as likely to appear as newer ones. I won't jump around to follow the latest, hottest games so if I start a series the odds are extremely good it will go on for a while. Please, feel free to come in and take a look around. Maybe even subscribe to my channel. And check out the community tab. I promise I don't bite.
Watch the end credits of my playthrough videos, I sometimes have something interesting or funny (to me at least) in them.

Clarion Call
Just playing around with AI music again to make a track for a future video of mine. I've been busy with medical stuff and didn't want to go off for my hospital stay and recovery next week because of a triple bypass, so I thought I'd share this track with everybody.

Back from my short hiatus and presenting a new video. This one is "Poker Night at the Inventory", a older poker game against 4 opponents. The game play is fine and the banter is pretty good as well. All music in this video is taken from player piano rolls that are in the Public Domain (year made for each after the name below) that I converted to MIDI and then mp3.

bien la musique 👍👍👍je compose dans le même genre
I think you can tell I wasn't feeling the best when I edited this video, because I apparently missed the fact that I didn't credit the 3rd and 4th song on the screen. I must have deleted that text bit when I was editing the video. At least I have them listed in the video description.
And once again TH-cam thinks I'm not paying attention and yanks views from me. Is Google that hard up for money they have to take ad revenue from all the small content creators? If so, that's a dick move.
And you're not fooling me TH-cam. I check out my analytics page for each video and compare the numbers to those on the video page for discrepancies.
I love how other civilizations talk big, but when you build a large army and defeat one or two of your own, they back off.🤣
Great video, keep on going😊
Thanks!
I want to go back.
I see no fire, I see no flames, I hear nobody burning in agony. That is not Pyro, you have a SPY!
I wish. Later on when I had spies in my base, he set them on fire and my minions in the area as well! 😄
Man i love pyro **Procceds to burn my entire base thinking it is helping** Yep i love him
Well, at least he's cheerful about it. 😃
I thought i saw nurgle tzeentch slaanesh and khorne for a moment.
Nah, couldn't be them. They are scared of the Pyro, as all sane beings are. :)
0:01 why does the third one look like a sontaran from Doctor WHO?
Just the way they styled him, he's kinda short and squat, looking a bit like Donald Pleasence as Blofeld in "You Only Live Twice".
The first thing I noticed was just how worn that first A-10 looked. I'm not saying it's not totally airworthy....but it's got a lot of rough edges.
She was never made to be pretty, just very, very lethal. :)
@@The_McFortner I wasn't talking about the type in general, I was commenting on the condition of that particular aircraft.
I know the video part isn't the greatest, but it's getting hard to find any decent military footage right now. It seems like what there is already has some channel's water mark on it. So much for US government works being Public Domain.
This show returned on 7/24/23.
I've seen the Hulu shows and, to me, it just isn't as well done. Too many of the episodes seem to fall flat, and with a 10 episode "season", that is bad. Meanwhile, if you have a 26 episode season like they did have, the same number of flat episodes doesn't hurt the over all quality of the season. Plus, I think going to a streaming service to just do 10 episodes a year is a questionable decision at best.

That it is. :)

So is it the game or the emulator
It's the game. It doesn't really like emulators and can get really picky at times.

Yooo this gameplay goes hard‼‼‼ Keep trying bro, you'll make it as a streamer someday‼‼‼
I don't know if I'll go streaming or not. I'm making these videos for fun, not funding. Being a streamer or a major YT channel is hard. Those people usually burn out because it's a 40 hour a week job with about 40 hours a week of unpaid, mandatory overtime tacked on. Too many have gotten tired of the pressure to constantly put out content and keep growing their channel and burned out. I'm determined not to go that way. If how I do my videos eventually gets me a lot of followers, then it's all good. But I'm not going to stress out over "making it" online.
utube algorithm weird as hell
Yeah, it is sometimes. I posted this video because a gameplay video I made had these same three flagged and I wanted to see if it was just a YT scan error or not, because mistakes happen. I've been talking by email with John at Magnatune and he says it's probably a mistake somewhere and he is working on getting it fixed. Once we get this straightened out, I'll make this video public again. An importantly, Magnatune and John in particular are good people and easy to work with and I can't recommend getting a membership there too much. I have one and it's worth it. 👍
All three Content ID claimed, regardless of being Creative Commons BY-NC-SA 1.0 License. And switched over to a Standard TH-cam license once the SD check was complete. Followups and Updates will be in the replies to this pinned comment.
Followup: I've contested the Content Claim based on the license that was granted to all non-commercial use by Magnatune. John at Magnatune is trying to get it straightened out on their end, so I am hoping this will help.
Thank you for your work, do you know who claims such pieces?
@@TheAllin5 It's almost certainly the automated scan of YT and basing it off of data from other companies, correct or otherwise. Sometimes it's a misunderstanding by the claimant because they didn't totally understand the Creative Commons License. I used to have older, pre-1954 music on my channel back when it was legal because music in the US didn't fall under Federal Copyright law, but it was a pain fighting those claims off. But then the Music Modernization Act basically retroactively awarded US Copyright to those older recordings, so I pulled all of those videos from my channel when it passed to avoid the hassle.
UPDATE: The claim on “Let Me Out” by Idlemine has been dropped by TuneCore. That leaves only the claims on the other two to be decided.
@@The_McFortner it's hard enough without the different copyright laws if the different countries...
then rename the Argo to Grand Torino and paint it red with a white racing stripe.
Make actual videos kid this is getting old tbh....
Well, I'm sorry to hear that you don't like my videos. But: a) there are plenty of other channels on YT and there is bound to be one you will like and I won't be offended if you don't watch mine, b) my channel description specifically says I do games I like, and c) I'm not a kid. I'm in my late 50s. I actually played this game when I was new and on my Amiga 500
Trollbots gonna troll.
@@mr.beeper1061 Yeah, it was big talk from somebody who has no videos of their own on YT.
Aaaanannnnd, their down vote already got pulled by YT. And no, I didn't ask for that to happen.
Well, here's some good news. It looks like I fixed the problem! I just reinstalled from a slightly earlier version of the game and the animations are working correctly. Civ 1 is a go! Now to get recording....
Played the crap of this one on PC. Yeah I was easily amused back in the day. :)
Yeah, I spent a lot of time on my Amiga 500 trying to find just the right combo of leaders that was easy to beat. Good times, good times.

Do a run of the game to fix it . The record hen you know it's all good @@The_McFortner
I need to give this a go looks fun for a horrific subject matter lol
It's pretty fun IMHO. I spent a lot of time playing it and am starting to play it again. Keep an eye out for my next video playing it, coming out Real Soonish©. 😁
Lol you lured in before getting the last one, that is so evil
Too many players run in like cocker spaniel puppies chasing after a ball, so I just use it to my advantage
Never seen this game before
Video doesn.t play for me, did YT ban it?
Oh my god! I completely forgot about this game! Played it like 30 years ago😀
Geez! These bots are getting unnecessarily mean 😀@@EternalSearcher

lol holy fuck a vintage '89 with sharp, crisp racist overtones and a nutty finish. They got Ghandi in a video game explicitly about backing his words with Nuclear Weapons two years before Civilization accidentally did it. I feel like this has to be an artifact from a quantum divergent reality.
This is a game that's due for a remake.
Most remakes loose the character of the original.
All the World leaders featured in this game are dead except for Jimmy Carter.
