alright so i'm kinda surprised no one actually made a thread on this but here we go!
What is Games Done Quick?
Games Done Quick is a bi-annual charity gaming marathon. Volunteers play games at incredible speed ("Speedrunning") for entertainment. The event is streamed live online, non-stop, and all donations go directly to the charity. This is the summer event, with a winter event every January ("Awesome Games Done Quick").i may or may not have totally ripped that straight from the websitethat's basically all there is to it! you get to watch runners speed the stuff outa games and all the hype that comes with it. it's pretty entertaining to watch if you ask me
you can watch it HEREalong with the stream there's of course the donating you can do
they managed to gather
$1,031,189.00 over
28095 donations in AGDQ, which is absolutly insane and amazing! hopefully, we will go even higher in SGDQ!
all the money you donate goes to charity (in this case
Doctors Without Borders), and you can include a message to it which MIGHT be read on the stream! which is pretty cool!
if you donate, you can put your money on bids for specific things in games like a certain character or something funky like that
you will also be added to any prize that might be going on at the time, assuming you donated enough to count on to it
you can check the bids/prizes and stuff
hereincase you wanna look for that specific game you'd love to watch be run, or maybe look for when your favorite speedrunner will play a game, you can check out the
schedule HEREand uh, yeah
that's it!
hope you enjoy the stream, even though this might be a couple days late
there's still quite a lot of games to go!
i hope i didnt do a too awful job at making the topic, i'm not very good at formatting these things :(
