This week on Semi-Ramblomatic @yahtzeecroshaw.bsky.social makes a complete mess trying to breakdown video game genres.

Lots of sorting to do, but we still want to see more cool games.

Sign-up form: forms.gle/gxqVYnDGQYsg...

Deadline to submit is March 15.

Heeey we got a review code early enough that a review can be timely for once www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDy5...

There's a lot of creepy holes in Yahtzee Tries this week www.youtube.com/watch?v=2N4G...

I've always instinctively disliked the phrase "piece of shit." I always think "pile of shit" scans better just because shit isn't inherently modular

YouTube video by Second Wind Cairn | Fully Ramblomatic

This week on Fully Ramblomatic, @yahtzeecroshaw.bsky.social reviewed @thegamebakers.com's Cairn.

Yahtzee rock climbs in real-life, but he's so tall that it doesn't really look like he's even climbing anything.

YouTube video by Second Wind How Yahtzee Created Unique Worlds in Starstruck Vagabond | GameMaker Memoirs

We're testing out a new video series in partnership with @gamemaker.io in which game developers talk about how they made their games using the GameMaker engine!

For the test episode we asked @yahtzeecroshaw.bsky.social to explain how he used procedural generation in Starstruck Vagabond.

Today we're excited to open up registration for our upcoming Second Wind Games Showcase which will air on April 23rd, 2026!

No hosts, no filler, just cool games from all around the world.

Registration is free - forms.gle/cmF7vUkPc96d...

Deadline is March 15, 2026!

I used to think the Spice Girls were being paid off by Cuba because they kept singing about how they really, really wanted a bigger cigar

YouTube video by Second Wind What Makes a Good Sequel? | Semi-Ramblomatic

This week's episode of Semi-Ramblomatic is now available with @yahtzeecroshaw.bsky.social asking the age-old question - what makes a good sequel?

YouTube video by Second Wind Escape from Ever After | Fully Ramblomatic

Yahtzee Tries is up! www.youtube.com/watch?v=5EO6...

Cannot overstate how great @secondwindgroup.com has been for us at PlayTracker. We sponsored over a dozen creators/channels in Nov/Dec, and it was our best performing campaign by a decent margin.

Lots of old users interacted with the guild too, since the profile decorations they made are top tier!

Today's thing I was irrationally angry about when I woke up this morning: Anthropomorphic kangaroos in kids' cartoons that don't have Australian accents

YouTube video by Second Wind Marvel's Deadpool VR | Fully Ramblomatic

This week on Fully Ramblomatic, @yahtzeecroshaw.bsky.social is still lost in the world of VR, but this time he's checking out Marvel's Deadpool.

YouTube video by Second Wind Thief VR: Legacy of Shadow | Fully Ramblomatic

This was the review I was waiting for, given that @yahtzeecroshaw.bsky.social has as deep a love for this series as I do. Sounds like this is best avoiding - time for yet another Thief 2 Replay perhaps (and maybe I *finally* try some fan missions/campaigns)

YouTube video by Second Wind Thief VR: Legacy of Shadow | Fully Ramblomatic

The slow release period of January certainly seems to be a good time to catch up on what VR's been up to www.youtube.com/watch?v=JR_p...

Due to tech issues my usual Wednesday stream, Yahtzee Tries, will be an unusual Friday stream this week. Same time, 1-3 Pacific. Sorry if that ruins any plans you had.
