Dear United States,

SpaceVenture finally released officially on Dec. 23, 2025. What's changed? Well, for one, the save/load feature now works as expected. So, of course, I had to make a short video about it. youtu.be/NFmJWToxVDE

We've been playing a lot of 99 Nights in the Forest lately and, two days ago, the developers had one of their Update Parties where the game turns into a magnificently chaotic and outlandish clusterfuck to celebrate a new update.
We attended our first Update Party in 99 Nights in the Forest
The SQH family gathered to play the Update Party, also known affectionately as "Admin Abuse" Party, which is an event thrown by the developers in-game every time there's a new major update. Lots of ridiculous things happen and it's a great time for everyone who play the game regularly. So even thoug

The family tried to play 99 Nights in the Forest with voice chat. Almost immediately got banned from voice chat for inappropriate language. All of us.

You know what the most unrealistic thing about Minecraft is? It's not the floating trees. It's not the zombies or skeletons. It's the fact that if you tell a cat to stay put, it will actually stay there.

Just to be clear: Any reply you ever get from me on YouTube is 100% real and hand-typed by me. Even the short, pithy ones. I will never EVER use this "feature" and, in my opinion, no YouTuber who gives the slightest shit about their audience should.
Does YouTube not trust us to respond to comments or something? No one asked for auto generated responses. Bold to assume I would use an lovey dovey emoji.

The narrator in Space Quest IV hitting you with this casual fuck-you right off the bat before the game has even begun:

"These incredibly intriguing questions will quickly be forgotten with barely an electron stirred in that well-armored orb atop your shoulders."
What's an insult you'll never forget?

Any philosophy majors in the house? My last video on walking simulators seem to have sparked a lot of discussion about what constitutes a "game" on a fundamental level and I feel my own understanding on the subject is severely lacking.

No one asked for this, but here are three ambient tracks for your nightly walk (or something). Two of the tracks were used in my recent video essay on walking simulators; the last one is one I dug up from the archives.
Music for Walking | Space Quest Historian
Music for Walking by Space Quest Historian, released 21 December 2025 1. The Journey is the Destination 2. The Journey is the Discovery 3. The Journey is the Desolation A few ambient tracks for a quiet walk. Tracks 1 and 3 were used in my video essay about walking simulators (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQ8lKd02tlA). Track 2 was created for an unfinished remake of the game Earthrise and included because I felt just having 2 tracks would be kind of a short walk.
