My M1 Macbook Air restarted itself twice in a row?

Hello, I got my Mac Air with the M1 chip today. While playing Counter Strike: Global Offensive, my mac restarted itself and when it opened up, I noticed the battery was down to %10. Then it restarted itself again. This time I connected the charger to charge the device and in like 10 seconds the battery was at %64. Also a mouse was connected through a dongle when all this happened.

So basically it crashed two times in a row and showed the battery percentage wrong.

Is my mac broken or is this normal? Should I return it?

It happened again while watching some videos. It randomly shut down and battery percentage was %1 this time when it reopened, but I was not warned about battery draining and when I connected the charger, it charged up to %64 in a matter of seconds just like the last time.

Some other things you should know:

I backed up from a hard drive using Time Machine. My previous mac was an intel i3 macbook air.

Also I removed the dongle after this second crash, If it happens again then I know it's not about the dongle. (I saw some people saying they had this problem and that it might be because of the dongle.)
