Baking Games the Hard Way was a short-lived video series hosted by Jiggmin that ran from December 2012 to January 2013.
Format[]
Each episode shows Jiggmin attempting to develop something in one of his games, mainly Luna.
Despite the series' name, videos were fast-paced 1-2 minute synopses that often briefly described a problem he encountered before abruptly cutting to it fixed with little to no explanation.

Lost Futurism Episodes[]
Jiggmin originally intended to develop Futurism in 7 days over the course of a couple months as a challenge, with each day receiving a Baking Games video showing his progress.[1] This was abandoned after the second day and most references to the challenge were removed, including the two already made videos.[2][3]
Notably, these used the original theme song rather than the later one composed by Jiggmin.
Futurism Day 1[]
Date: Oct 1, 2013
"Towards the end of the video the clip on mic I was wearing was literally electrocuting my throat with every last bit of power it had. Evidently the little guy has developed a short somewhere."
Futurism Day 2[]
Date: Oct 9, 2013
"There are four different card types in Futurism, each with different kinds of powers. In this video you can see some of what the Naturalists can do. They focus a lot on holding enemies at bay while they buff themselves up into crazy powerful freaks."
Trivia[]
- Episode 5 is the only one to be close captioned.
