I am officially properly unemployed now so uh, hit me up if you have work or are a secret billionaire giving away millions of dollars. Preferably the latter but work is okay too I guess.
I find myself in the unenviable position of needing to find work so

You may have noticed that I haven't uploaded to my YouTube channel of late.
Truth is, I just got burnt out. Life circumstances happened, recording gameplay was very fiddly, and the editing process was frustrating.
I still play Map Rando all the time but I just can't bring myself to record it now.

When it comes to racing in Map Rando, the community comes together twice a week to race. I usually can't do these due to time zones and being unable to stream.
So I attempted the race seed after the fact, & this is the result.
