I know a lot of folks don't realize this, but AGDQ and SGDQ are not the only times of year that GDQ is live!

We have a TON of speedrun shows nearly every day through the GDQ Hotfix Programming, where you get to see a whole slew of talent and games that don't always get to be on mainline!

Hey, I worked on this! VGHF supplied some rare archival materials for this collection, like this flyer for the original Atari Jaguar release (from the Game Informer press materials collection)

While cancelling Nitro is all well and good, just a reminder that age verification itself won't go away as a whole unless KOSA, the SCREEN Act, and tons more are buried and done with.

Please contact your reps if you don't want this to spread to other platforms.

I wanted to get this stupid bloodwork out of the way today and of course my brain decided to subject me to very traumatic and stressful nightmares.

Do I try again tomorrow? Do I do it anyways despite my mental already being tanked?

For context, I get extremely stressed out in medical facilities.

Nested scenes are my bread and butter in overlay design and it never occurred to me that people don't know about it.

Yes! Entire scenes as sources is a thing in OBS and it's extremely useful when designing something modular!
I learned you can add scenes as sources in OBS, so you can set up a scene for something like a chat connected to a webcam and background, then import that scene into other scenes to keep that webcam and chat altogether as one group. It makes it really convenient to add commonly used sources.

Hey y'all.

A South African dev released a blackity black game during BHM and it's currently getting the usual suspects in the reviews.

Imma grab this up myself anyway, but can we all be some chums and help push the racists out of the reviews? 🙂

Join us for Passion Project as we have @epiccrossover.bsky.social zoom through 32 Tracks at 200 cc speed in Mario Kart Wii, and PunchSh0t show off the Rebrushed version of Disney Epic Mickey! It's a load of Wii-based nostalgia that you won't want to miss out on!

What are some games where to actually beat the game, you need to 100% it?

I want to plan an episode of Do All The Things down the line where the category is "Any%" for every game, but the games require you to 100% it to get an ending. Only game that comes to my mind is Spyro: Season of Ice

I am begging speedrun communities to please take the resources and guides in your discord servers and mirror them on the Guides and Resources tabs of the SRC page for their respective games. I've been complaining about this for years.
time to use the discord outrage to say that everything to start learning yars speedrunning is hosted on the src page, no need to join a discord and every game should have that.
stop hiding things in discord servers.
