Old Thinkpad Design Innovation Matt Merkle 2011-12-29 | One of my ancient IBM Thinkpad laptops, sporting a 486 DX2 75mhz CPU. Poor thing's battery gave up the ghost many years ago, but it still runs otherwise, and of course has some amazing technical feats to get that keyboard inside.

Minecraft Creative World - Day 1 Matt Merkle 2011-10-04 | Just a quick look at a creative world I have been working on. Not much to look at, but this is Day 1!
Sonic Spinball - Toxic Caves Speedrun - 3:07 Matt Merkle 2011-09-06 | My best time thus far in Sonic Spinball's Toxic Caves. Still a few mistakes, a time under 3:00 is definitely possible outside of a TAS.
Sonic Spinball Speedrun Matt Merkle 2011-08-25 | One of many playthroughs. Wasn't attempting for a submission (which is why I bothered playing a bonus stage for fun), but it's pretty good. Actual run time without bonus stage ~35 minutes. -- Recorded live on my twitch.tv stream. Check out my speedruns live: http://twitch.tv/cool_matty - http://j-tv.me/qXIeOA

Portal 2: Return Matt Merkle 2011-06-28 | WARNING: CONTAINS SPOILERS of this upcoming map pack!Portal 2: Return is a solo project I am working on, that continues the Portal 2 storyline. This video is the first released WIP, demonstrating the first two chambers of the mod. The mod will include many new and creative uses for existing puzzle elements, along with telling more about Chell.Since this is a WIP, the detail and polish has not begun yet. I am still finalizing the puzzle elements, so don't be harsh on eyecandy just yet. Other than that, feel free to leave any comments or suggestions in the box below! Well written ideas or suggestions may be featured in the credits sequence of the mod when it is completed.
2fort2combos Matt Merkle 2011-05-13 | Just a couple of air combos as soldier, nothing too special. My first replay to export, though.
iPad 2 Dodocase Smart Cover Modification Matt Merkle 2011-04-14 | Just a quick demo of my quick and easy Dodocase modification. As explained in the video, all I did was take a couple refrigerator magnets (stacked so the magnetism was strong enough), employed some double-sided tape, and attached it to the inside cover of the Dodocase. Now it turns the iPad 2 on and off just like the smart cover! Magical! (Apologies for poor audio, recorded with my HTC EVO)
Minecraft Exploration Matt Merkle 2011-02-19 | Just a small video showing off my exploration of one of my Minecraft worlds. Rather than creating something ridiculous or complex, I decided to spend my time traveling, like I would if I were truly stuck in such a world. Notes:Q: What Texture Pack is that?!A: It's the JohnSmith texture pack, at 32x32. It requires patching, you cannot use it with the built-in texture system at the time of writing. You can find all the details and download information here: http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=29164Q: Got a cartographer pic?A: Sure do! (The big hill of lava is where I started. The large "sky path" goes back towards my spawning home, which is not shown in the video)http://dl.dropbox.com/u/41063/Etc/map1-day.pngQ: That's a lot of track!A: Indeed it is. And I will admit, I did not mine all that iron. I cheated in only 2 ways, with INVedit: 1. I gave myself a lot of track. Seriously, finding and mining the iron necessary for that much track would take months. 2. I gave myself enough diamond to make diamond tools. It made the mining process much faster. EVERYTHING else is legit, mined and placed by myself. Yes, even the sand/glass. Luckily, coal isn't as hard to come by, as that is a lot of torches too.Q: So what's next?A: Well, I'm considering leaving it up to fellow YouTubers for that one. I've already done a great deal of exploring, so I might take suggestions on which direction to head next. Any thoughts?
