Jailed in a dungeon to mint the king's coins: Dead Squirrel's Coin Maker Simulator

Seven uploads of indie oddities, from a whale wash to a rock-skipping game, with H2O Delirious, Cartoonz and Kyle dropping in along the way.

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

Dead Squirrel spent the week in a dungeon, on a fruit farm, behind the wheel of a car that will not behave and, finally, on a quiet lakeshore skipping stones. Seven uploads went out, each one a new indie game, which is exactly what the channel promises.

The one that drew the biggest crowd was "I WAS JAILED AND FORCED TO MAKE COINS FOR THE KINGDOM!!!! [COIN MAKER SIMULATOR]", in which he is locked up and set to work minting money. The description credits H2O Delirious, Cartoonz and Kyle, his longtime group-game friends. The comments are a running list of things he missed: viewers tease him for racing past the subtitles, for reaching for hot copper with a bare hand, and for walking right past a guard's joke in the opening minutes. Others share tips, like what the chisel is for, and a few are already asking for a second episode.

The freshest uploads are the ones moving now. A fog-chasing ball roller from Monday is still busy, and the rock-skipping game, billed as peaceful, is picking up views faster than anything else on the channel. That makes a nice contrast after a week of road rage and a Shark Mart whale wash.

The audience held steady overall: the channel gained no subscribers, and its daily views ran a touch below usual. Among let's-play channels of similar size it sits right in the middle, while Lazy Mattman is having by far the biggest week of the group.
