Summer Games Done Quick 2018 Begins This Sunday
Is it really that time again? Summer Games Done Quick 2018 is starting up this weekend. If it feels like these GDQ speedruns happen sooner and sooner each year, relax — that just means you’re closer to the grave. For those new to the event, Summer Games Done Quick 2018 is the latest in a semi-annual string of charity speedruns where the best game players in the world pile into a hotel ballroom and tear through the world’s most popular and beloved games as quickly as possible, utilizing glitches (when allowed) and quick reflexes to make short work of your childhood. It’s all live, amazing to watch, and for a good cause. Games Done Quick has raised millions for Doctors Without Borders, and they’ll be doing so again. This is going to be a landmark year — we can feel it. Games people have been demanding are finally making their appearances in the marathon: Celeste, Cuphead, and finally — at long last — the return of the Super Mario Maker
