Sort of, and I was recognized by the company who made the game etc. This isn't the first time I was recognized for something:: Torchlight Although, unlike that one, this one was mostly positive and initiated by myself.
Afterwords, they asked me if they could share my video playlist and they tweeted it out etc. I also had a little discourse with an employee about a couple bugs and suggestions. (you can find the couple of threads I made if you want to look through them on their forums)

The game is called "Beware Planet Earth!" and it is a tower defense style game created by the French based Lightmare studios. It is in a similar art and direction style as Plants Vs Zombies, but the gameplay is more like wc3 style TD games.
Here are their forums: http://lightmare-studio.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=13

It's really fun. The gist of the game is to protect the cows on your farm which aliens are trying to abduct back to their crop circles to beam up to their spaceship. You fight them with machines you place around the farm and a few other controls. There is a dude trapped in the outhouse who often talks to you and builds new machines for you to use to fight the invasion. It's a fairly straight forward easy game except a few levels. I recommend playing on veteran mode.

I have to say, this was a lot more challenging that I originally expected. The game on normal was a piece of cake.

On Veteran as you progress, the later levels get pretty specific (build order/placement+speed+skill+luck). I think the hardest levels to beat were: Challenges: Ninjas In The Snows and then Maid Raids. And for some reason I refused to try and beat Challenges: Back To Basics with mainly kegs and it took me the most attempts of any level (like 18 or 19). As far as the Story levels, I think more than a couple in Fall were pretty troublesome (over 8 tries), and then Winter levels averaged like five tries each with Level 9 being something like 17 tries as well. The clowns come and break machines, then you need to water them, but the maids suck the cans away, then the red ninjas charge in and drop cows right on the riot martians..ugh

Here is the playlist of all the levels beaten on Veteran mode (some levels not included in the playlist are uploaded for normal if you want to check those out). I put the challenge and bonus levels first, and then the story levels last (all in order)
