Here are monthly "update" videos from behind my house. It's my goal to turn a small space and poor soil into a pretty and productive garden.

Love these spring updates — the potato trenches and greenhouse work especially. Reading about your food-growing experiments always sends me down a rabbit hole of homesteading and small-scale self-sufficiency projects. Lately I have been unwinding with 1in8b life simulation game, which is all about building out that slow, self-reliant rural life day by day. Funny how a bit of virtual gardening makes the real thing feel less daunting. Looking forward to the next update.
Really enjoyed these updates - turning a small patch of poor soil into something productive takes patience and a lot of trial and error. I've been keeping notes on what worked each season, and comparing the progress side by side makes it much easier to see what actually moved the needle; trackdash.org has been handy for that kind of simple progress tracking. Looking forward to the next installment.
Drive Mad combines casual accessibility with puzzle-like driving situations. The controls are straightforward, but completing certain levels requires players to experiment with different speeds and approaches until they discover the safest way forward.
