The Best Games of 2020, As Decided By One Man With Imperfect Information
Surprise! Not really, because I told you this one was coming!
Anyway, this is obviously a pretty different format for me. It won't be the norm, of course, but if people like this, maybe I'll make it an annual tradition. Who knows! Anyway, thank you all for your support through this extremely rocky year, and I'll see ya in the next one.
Oh, and happy Chanukah!

Hey y'all,
Despite my consistent denial of the passage of time, it is somehow December. Good news though! There will be two vids this month (and maybe in January too!), both a standard Geller-y video essay and a more loosely scripted one on my favorite games of the year. They're both fun vids, and I'm excited to put them up. HOWEVER, I wanted to let you know because my Patreon is currently set up to charge per video, and I didn't want to blindside anyone with a double payment...

A little bit of a throwback here, no doom and gloom and instead just people making wonderful art. Enjoy!

Decided to just give this one to all y'all today because it's been a while and I felt like there was some good chaotic energy contained within. If you liked this and wanna see more/ask questions, join the $3 tier!

Some goofy stuff based on the incredible fact that y'all are now giving me $3k per video. Part 1, I recorded a mega-length director's commentary on my first and greatest video (https://youtu.be/mHnil3tLzoI).
More to come, stay tuned.

Let's get artsy!!
Also- due to some wonky scheduling stuff with the sponsor, this vid will be going public at about 3pm(EST) today. I know that's a slightly shorter period of exclusivity for y'all than normal, it shouldn't become a pattern. Cheers!

I should have recorded this director's commentary just yelling in an alley, but this will have to do.

I'm really proud of this video y'all. There's some weird stuff in here but I think it turned out well. Hope ya think so too.

Hi y’all!
I haven’t done one of these in a long time, but since my twitter is still down and a lot has been happenin in the past couple months, I figured an update was due. People on the discord have likely heard all this before (seriously, the Geller discord is one of the friendliest places on the internet), but here it is in one big chunk.

Really proud of this one. Also, I don't think it spoils anything or requires much knowledge from Final Fantasy 7, so give it a chance!
Feel free to hype this up on social media, because I still can't, but please only share the patreon link- not the video itself!

Hi folks,
You may or may not be aware that my twitter has been suspended for a while now. I don’t know why. I literally haven’t received any email from twitter; no explanation, duration, nothing. Twitter, as much of a hellsite as it is, helps me find new artists, boost smaller creators, connect with basically everyone I collaborate with. It’s also a pretty major revenue source when it comes to freelancing and such. Not having it is fucking a lot of stuff up.
