Never in my life did I expect this new craze on YouTube of these Mandela Effects. Gonna upload a video proving one of these, right I am. Give it your attention. You would really like it, as it shows you that there are indeed Piranha Plants in 1-1. Up and at 'em!



Have you watched it yet? if not, do not proceed.















Happy April Fools' Day! In reality, this video was a lot of fun to make. While I have your attention, let's talk about gaming videos, and some April Fools' Day jokes I've seen over the years.

Gaming started before the internet was popular, and because of that false information spread like wildfires. Sometimes that info wasn't even false to begin with, but like a gigantic game of telephone among video game fans, info spread. One piece of true info, such as "there is a hard mode after you beat the original Super Mario Bros. where the Goombas turn into Buzzy Beetles" could easily turn into "if you beat Super Mario Bros. 7 times in a row without turning the console off all enemies turn into Bowsers!!!".

The internet makes the spread of false info harder because the official sources can be easily found. The problem is, you have to know where the official source is. Oftentimes, I'll see some blatantly flase info being passed around like it was fact. Such examples include stuff like "If you use the name MHFGDUNRGDYSVGE1982734" in Among Us, you'll always be Impostor!".

Stuff like that, as a game programmer, has no reason to be in there unless you're specifically making some debug tools. Most of the time, you'd delete those in the final game, anyway.

When official channels come into the discussion on April Fools', it can be a lot of fun, if you know it's a joke. I myself have been the victim of thinking something real then realizing it was uploaded on April 1st.

The internet in its modern form is very toxic, but it should be viewed as a gift, not a curse.

I've been koola, and the real April Fools' day joke was the fact that there wasn't an April Fools' Day article, but instead a real one.

(It's not spelled "Bearenstien"???)

Welcome to my little side of the internet! This is where I post game reviews, video-game related things, and stuff about MY game, OMNIFATE. Expect a new article about every month; sometimes I post more than once in a month or take five-month long breaks.

(The schedule is a guideline.)
