Awesome Games Done Quick was a speed run marathon done by a group of 50 or so of us from SpeedDemosArchive (SDA) in an effort to raise money for the Prevent Cancer Foundation, a charity devoted to, as expected, fighting cancer by stopping it before it takes effect. This took place from January 6th through January 11th in Chevy Chase, MD, with nonstop back-to-back speed runs streamed live online during the entire duration of the marathon. Our very generous donors helped us raise over $53,000 for the Prevent Cancer Foundation! Thank you so much for all of you who supported this run either by watching or donating (or watching recorded runs such as this one)! We could not have done it without you all!
I also want to give a shoutout to everybody at SDA who helped upload the marathon vids so soon after the marathon's completion. That is a colossal effort! The vids look great though, and I stole this video from the master list (speeddemosarchi...) for some shameless promotion. :P Thanks guys!
A big thanks to Nurzdog for donating the cart to the marathon. Without him, Color a Dinosaur would not have been featured. :)
This is our featured "Mystery Game" run by me, PJ. This game is no joke. Well I suppose it technically is, but we take it very seriously. Well, maybe not. Regardless, this was a sort of interlude between the Metroid block and Zelda block. I hope you enjoy. I sure did. Haha.
For those wondering, I'll go through a quick roll call. Sitting in the back row, from left to right, are: puwexil, Tigger77, Flip, Mike Uyama, Radix, and RaneofSOTN. On the couch (left to right) is UltraJMan, PJ (me!), and romscout, and flicky is the fellow in the commentator chair with the Katamari hat on.
