Combining the immense skill of the speedrunning community with efforts to raise money for good causes - this week’s event will benefit the Prevent Cancer Foundation - and a joyous celebration of video games and the people who play them, it’s a delight to tune into both impressive runs of well-known games and showcases of the more weird and wonderful titles people dedicate themselves to smashing into broken code.Awesome Games Done Quick 2024 is no exception, with some of the PC highlights I spotted amongthis year’s scheduleincluding a race between soulslikesElden RingandSekiro, a modded three weapons race in roguelikeHades, a no-damage hardcore run inResident Evil 2 Remake, and a Level 1% run inDiablo.Bluey: The Videogameand Skull Island: Rise of Kong are in there too.A shiba inu will speedrun a game at@GamesDoneQuickthis January; he will be the first dog to do so:https://t.co/IA78oPZwe2— JSR_ 🔜 #AGDQ2024 (@JSR2gamers)October 17, 2023To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settingsThere’s plenty of outings for fairly recent releases from last year too, including theDead SpaceandResident Evil 4remakes (along with RE4’s Separate Ways DLC in its own slot), ‘PinocchioBloodborne’ Lies of P, an Any% run for Bethesda’s sci-fi epic Starfield - expected to take under 45 minutes - a New Game+ True Ending shot forArmoured Core 6and a complete run through all acts of Baldur’s Gate 3, which should only take half an hour or so if you feel like looking at your 100+ hour save with a new light.One of the biggest highlights, though admittedly not technically on PC, is the debut of Peanut Butter the dog, claimed to be the first canine speedrunner. The shiba inu will be playingGyromiteon the NES, serving as “Dog Assistance” to human runner JSR who will issue commands (and treats) to the pet pooch to get him to hit the buttons needed to progress. It is, perhaps unsurprisingly, the first such entry in the Dog Assistance category, though hopefully not the last.
