Infinite Craft

    I understand that it's pretty popular for YouTuber's to base their channel around one game. This can definitely work well for some, even if it starts to feel a bit stale over time. What I never knew, however, was that some people base their entire channel on Infinite Craft. Yes, the game that Neal Agarwal built that runs off your browser is a game so revered that people play it consistently on their channel. From what I've seen, they can spend over an hour trying to get a single item. It's bizarre, especially considering the surface-level simplicity and accessibility of the game. It's not some crazy ultra high graphics next generation game, but rather a humble little white canvas in your browser that contains a whole iceberg of depth and complexity. 
    When I first played it on my channel, I was quite charmed by the mechanics and how easy it was to pick up and start playing. I liked how you could easily see your progress slowly growing as you combined more and more random things together. Because of the game's potential for (literally) infinite items, players have developed strategies to get new items, or "first discoveries". They've also developed strategies to get incredibly obscure and unorthodox things that are near impossible to come across. In other words, I merely scratched the surface of what the game entails. I think it's still worth giving it a second look, given you can save your progress through a download. 
    Now it makes sense to me why there are full channels dedicated to Infinite Craft. It's infinite content, too.
