Games Done Quick Hosting Emergency Marathon This Weekend For Hurricane Harvey Relief

Games Done Quick, a bi-annual game speedrunning marathon that raises money for various causes, has announced that they are holding an emergency marathon this weekend Friday 8:00 PM EST to Sunday 8:00 PM EST.

Both Awesome Games Done Quick and Summer Games Done Quick raise millions of dollars every year, so the emergency stream for Hurricane Harvey relief could potentially raise a lot of money for much-needed aid. The streams show speedrunners going through games through various methods and criteria, taking down twenty hour games in less time than a movie.

This time, Games Done Quick is partnering with the Houston Food Bank. Further and updating details can be found on the organization's twitter account.
