Pool Loop, a lap counter and one exit for Cam2r Gaming
The week's single upload passed 160,000 views in under a day and a half, and its comments keep asking about a black screen around the 15-minute mark.

Do NOT Swim in This Pool.. (Pool Loop)
One upload, plenty of screaming. Cam2r Gaming, the channel its maker calls "the gaming version of regular Cam2r," spent the week in a swimming pool that should not be swum in. "Do NOT Swim in This Pool.. (Pool Loop)" is an anomaly horror game: you circle the same pool area again and again, a lap counter on the wall, and decide each time whether anything has changed. Spot a distortion and turn back; miss one and, as the description puts it, things get ugly fast.
It drew close to 138,000 views in its first day. The comment section reads like a timestamp log of jumps: viewers mark the second their soul left their body, warn headphone users about an early yell, and laugh at one panicked line about a bald figure. Many also ask whether their stream cut out near the 15-minute mark; one viewer explains there was a black screen with no sound that has since been fixed. And plenty admit that even the familiar opening shout of "TODAY WE'RE PLAYING" still catches them off guard.
The pool belongs to a run of "Do NOT" titles. A bathroom version, Toilet 8, is still drawing a steady stream at sixteen days old, and a month-old game played as a dog sits close to 800,000 views.
The channel ran a little below its usual daily pace, yet it added about 10,000 subscribers, more than any of the similar gaming channels nearby. VortroxTwo had by far the busiest week in that group, while ChilledChaosGAME and NintendoCapriSun were quiet.
