Is it that time again? Not exactly. Summer Games Done Quick is still roughly two months from now, but the organization has already finalized what you’ll be seeing there. The schedule was published over the weekend, and just like the previous summer GDQs, it’s pretty packed. The fun begins July 6 with the early morning run of Sonic The Hedgehog 2, followed by Okami HD, Banjo-Kazooie, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Bear Saber, Sekiro, Quake, Mega Man X4 and others. Day 2 will feature MGS3, Halo 4, Turtles in Time (arcade version), Timespinner, Link’s Awakening DX, Crash Twinsanity and something unofficial called Mega Man Maker (for once, Mega Man players will be subject to kaizo insanity, though there will be Mario kaizos as well). Silly Block will return for another year with Shaq Fu, Pocketbike Racer, Skate Horse, the game based on the 90s Hercules show (it’s by Titus so you know it’s bad), Rose and Camellia (a slap fight game), and something called An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs, as well as a run of Mario Paint’s Gnat Fight minigame. The whole marathon will conclude July 13 with the triple whammy of Super Mario 64, the […]

Seeing Sekiro on the schedule excites me the most. That game is known for being tough, and watching someone beat it quickly and precisely is like watching a musician perform a complex piece live. Also, the idea of speedrunning Blue Prince, with its random structure, sounds very creative. GDQ often surprises me with how they find new ways to play games. I’m marking my calendar for July 6.
 
This sounds fun, but I’m mostly here for the Silly Block. A game run by dogs? A Hercules game that’s bad on purpose? Yeah, that’s my kind of nonsense.
 
Every time GDQ comes around, it reminds me how powerful the gaming community can be when it comes together. This isn’t just about games; it’s about using games to help others. I really respect how they make sure all the donations go to Doctors Without Borders and not to the event costs. That kind of transparency makes me want to donate every year. Also, I’m excited to see Deltarune finally getting a spot. I loved Undertale, and I’ve followed Toby Fox’s work since then. It’s going to be special seeing that run live.
 
The Blue Prince run is going to be fascinating. As a speedrunner myself, I’ve always avoided that game due to the randomness, but the Bingo setup might be the smartest solution yet. It levels the playing field while still making it a competition. I’ll be watching that one closely to see if it opens the door for more roguelike-style games to be part of future GDQs.
