It’s summer season, which suggests it’s time for solar and speedruns. The 2024 version of Summer season Video games Completed Fast (SGDQ), the annual speedrunning marathon for charity, kicks off on Sunday and runs till July sixth. This year’s lineup is as soon as once more full of runs for a few of my favourite video games, together with Balatro, Alan Wake 2, Elden Ring, Tony Hawk’s Professional Skater 1, 2, 3, and 4 (multi function run), a glitchless Baldur’s Gate 3 Honour Mode run, and a shipless Outer Wilds run (how???).
However my most anticipated run is a reside speedrun from Peanut Butter, the shiba inu who carried out a distant run of the NES recreation Gyromite at Awesome Games Done Quick in January. At SGDQ, Peanut Butter will likely be reside on the occasion taking part in Ken Griffey Jr. Presents Main League Baseball for the Tremendous NES. Peanut Butter’s purpose is to win a recreation in half-hour. The run is scheduled for July 4th at 8:43PM ET.
SGDQ’s first run, Yoshi’s Story, occurs immediately at 1PM ET. You may stream all the occasion from the Games Done Quick Twitch channel, and Video games Completed Fast usually posts runs after they occur on its YouTube channel. The occasion, which will likely be streamed from Minneapolis, is elevating cash for Medical doctors With out Borders.
