Editor’s Choice
Curated Stories from Illumination Gaming Publication #1
First curated collection for readers interested in gaming topics.
Dear Gamers,
This is my first editorial bulletin as I am a relatively new writer on Medium, but I gained three top writer badges in gaming, social media, and reading. I volunteer as an editor at ILLUMINATION and learn much from senior editors.
Recently, with support from Dr Mehmet Yildiz and his editorial team, I created a publication called Illumination Gaming on Medium.
This new publication aims to be a home for storytellers from gaming communities. It is open to all writers on Medium. We are diverse and inclusive, like all other Illumination publications.
I aim to bring gamers to one place and create a collaborative atmosphere. I also use YouTube and TikTok to promote my publications.
You might check some of my videos in the attached collection.
I created a second publication called Illumination on YouTube. I will create another bulletin for it shortly.
Playing games is a passion for me. I started playing in my early childhood. Therefore, it is one of the topics I write about on this platform. I recently completed a monthly writing challenge and compiled my gaming stories in a collection.
In this post, I selected ten pieces recently published on Illumination Gaming Publication that I enjoyed reading very much.
I present them in no particular order.

10 — Another Potential Grand Theft Auto 6 Leak — Aiden (Illumination Gaming)
Recently, a user named “teapottuberhacker” on the GTAForums has uploaded quite a few gameplay videos that allegedly come from a test build of GTA 6. This early build is apparently running with “GTA 5 and 6 source code and assets.” Currently, these videos quickly circulate on platforms such as YouTube, Twitter, Reddit, and others. I don’t know how authentic they are, but they are interesting to gamers. I enjoy reading and learning about GTA events.
In addition, I’d like to thank Dr Mehmet Yildiz, chief editor of Illumination Integrated publications, who inspired and encouraged me to establish this publication and offered free support via his Slack workspace for collaboration.
Dr. Yildiz also kindly posted several of his gaming-related stories to my publication, so I’d like to provide links for interested readers. They are educative and engaging stories.
A Potential Revenue Stream with Video Gaming, Horse Racing, & Sports Betting in an NFT Platform
Thank you for reading these great stories and supporting these writers.
As a side note, recently, I posted an article about Donald Trump's return to Twitter after his ban. Interestingly, this post received more internal views than my gaming stories. Perhaps I should also write about politics :-)
Another story related to Elon Musk has also relatively got more views.
