Having a slow day, I found myself dumbscrolling Youtube Shorts and found something actually interesting.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;shorts&#x2F;KFs-sIMp89s" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;shorts&#x2F;KFs-sIMp89s</a><p>That was an unusual mechanical game! I have to know more. I quickly found the original creator Tim Hunkin and his Youtube channel, a hidden gem by itself.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;@timhunkin1&#x2F;videos" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;@timhunkin1&#x2F;videos</a><p>Featured his own video of the Divorce arcade machine.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=BUe5FGIcYq8" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=BUe5FGIcYq8</a><p>with a blog post about the making of the machine, way more interesting than just play the game.<p>And some &#x27;grisly themed&#x27; (as he said) machines like the PET OR MEAT machine<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=_OGzD8PiO7k" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=_OGzD8PiO7k</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.timhunkin.com&#x2F;a169_petormeat-writing.htm" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.timhunkin.com&#x2F;a169_petormeat-writing.htm</a><p>Apparently inspired in some very old machines depicting executions for a coin. I&#x27;m still getting into this rabbit hole.
