Another great run happened in a game called Mr. Bones, one many folks probably haven’t played or even heard of. The run happened during AGDQ’s annual “Awful Games Done Quick” block. This is a part of the event where, as the name implies, people play awful games very quickly. The run was so fun to watch that it helped our own Ash Parrish cope a bit better with the terrible events of the last week.

I’ve always been a big fan of Halo speedruns, and this year we got a great Halo 3 speedrun in the recently released PC port of the game. Growing up, Halo 3 was a game that took me over a week to beat; watching someone demolish the game in under an hour and fifteen minutes, using various gravity hammer and grenade tricks, was a blast. Young teen Zack wouldn’t believe it.

If you want to feel tired and sore, watch this speedrun of Beat Saber on expert+. Runner Kungfufruitcup does a great job explaining the game and then making it look easy to beat on the HARDEST difficulty. The best part of this speedrun might be at the start when, halfway through the first song of the run and in the middle of hitting dozens of notes in a matter of seconds, she says “We’re starting a little simple.”

AGDQ 2021 has uploaded all the speedruns onto its YouTube channel, so you can easily watch any of these runs or countless others whenever you want. You can also still donate to the event.
