Summer Games Done Quick 2022 kicks off today, so here are some runs to watch for

destructoid.com:

It’s time once again to watch some sick speedrunning exhibitions. Summer Games Done Quick 2022 gets underway today, as speedrunners gather in Minnesota to go fast for a good cause.

For anyone unfamiliar, Games Done Quick is a twice-a-year event where speedrunners—players who compete to clear objectives in games as fast as possible—put on exhibitions for charity. SGDQ supports Doctors Without Borders, while Awesome Games Done Quick raises funds for the Prevent Cancer Foundation.

This year’s SGDQ is a notable one because it’s the first time, since AGDQ 2020, that a Games Done Quick event has been held in-person. The event has outlined its COVID policies online, but this will be the first time we’ve had some genuine crowds since pre-pandemic.

Summer Games Done Quick streams live on Twitch from Sunday, June 26 through this coming Saturday and potentially into the wee hours of July 3.

You can find the full schedule of upcoming runs, shifted to your respective time zone, here. I also went through and took a look at the runs, pulling out ones I thought looked or sounded neat. If you’re looking for particular days or windows to tune in, this might give you a decent idea of when.
