The Beginner's Guide: A Video Game about a Video Game

This year at Huntington, has been a year that my mind has been opening my many things. A new view on books, a new view on the Bible, a newer view on Movies. But the one thing that I learned at Huntington, I didn't learn in a class, I learned it while looking for news on Taylor Swift's Tour and other mind melting things, I got a notification from YouTube about a new video Jacksepticeye, now being a Good Boss, I watched it and had to stop at the half an hour mark to control my tears, I wasn't able to watch it until later that night because I needed think about what I just watched. So I finished it and was blown away once again by this game.


The Game is a bunch of little games put together by a man named, Coda. Coda made games because they made him happy, and showed them to a friend. That friend, later on showed them to other people. I don't want o ruin the whole story of the game for you guys, I really think you should set a side two hour or more, to watch this video. A video game that shows what it's like to be alone, depressed, show how video games are no longer something of enjoyment to learn from but something that must be finished first so we can gloat to our friends that we know the ending. This game actually makes you stop and think, about the real world and how some people may have to deal with it differently than others do, a game about friendship and lose.
