GamesDoneQuick prepares impromptu charity stream for Hurricane Harvey

MCV Staff 31st August 2017 People

Charity livestreaming outfit GamesDoneQuick, a several day long stream of speedrunners that solicits donations, is planning an impromptu stream to raise money for Hurricane Harvey in Texas.

GamesDoneQuick is best known for its twice yearly streams, AwesomeGamesDoneQuick (AGDQ) and SummerGamesDoneQuick (SGDQ), week long events that raise a bundle for charity. They’re planning this impromptu stream to take place for 48 hours from September 1 at 7pm CT. GDQ are currently asking speedrunners to sign up to be involved.

Considering SGDQ 2017 raised $1.75 million for charity, the stream, entitled Harvey Relief Done Quick, could be a boon to charities in the area. This stream will be taking place remotely, with runners expected to use the GamesDoneQuick discord to provide commentary during their run.

A schedule will be released shortly.

[Industry news] Core Keeper’s ancient Core becomes a one of a kind gaming PC, to be won for charity

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
