Youtube Creepypasta-Adjacent Series

I watched this earlier this year, based (I think) on a link from a comment on the Blue. It is a series of videos purporting to be examinations of a curious feature in an online game. If you go into an alley on one level, sometimes there is some graffiti that gives you codes to unlock recordings of levels within the game.

Most of the recordings are very short and include brief shots of empty non-standard levels, the "backside" of terrain, and the like. A very few are recordings of people navigating these nonstandard levels and they sometimes encounter mysterious shadows with malign intent. At one point the narrator finds a lengthy recording or a sort of seance within the game.

Anyway, when I watched, there were three videos with some supporting materials (mostly fuller versions of "supporting material" used in the main videos. The series had (I think) a single word title beginning with A or I.

Any chance one of you has some idea what this is? Unfortunately, searching for likely terms on Youtube is bvery needle in the haystack.

Response by poster: Absolutely correct! Thanks so much! I enjoyed the first 3 (i think) episodes quite a bit, so I am glad there are more.

Follow up question: if there is anything else like this anyone wants to recommend? I like the "mystery in video game" theme, not so thrilled by "I played this weird version of MarioKart and my family was slaughtered by a demon" sort of creepypasta.
