- I Know a Guy: Shady Life Simulator: YouTube Gap Check Before Recording: Picked because the game format fits creator content, Steam demand is measurable, and the current YouTube supply/risk profile leaves room for a focused test. YouTube supply is not measured yet, so this should start as research, not a full production bet.
- I Know a Guy: Shady Life Simulator: What I Would Test Before Making a Series: This keeps the creator's cost low while checking whether the game has repeatable moments, search intent, and audience fit.
- I Know a Guy: Shady Life Simulator: One Mechanic Worth Building a Video Around: A focused mechanic angle is safer than generic coverage when confidence is incomplete or the niche may already be noisy.
