This year was honestly one of the better years. Lots of great runs all around. You can find the VODs here: https://www.youtube.com/@gamesdonequick/videos

I haven't seen many runs yet, but my personal highlights were Peanut Butter the Dog speedrunning Gyromite and Elden Ring finished in 18 minutes.

What other great runs were there I might've missed?

They went and became a non-profit and are disclosing their financials now?

GDQ is still a for-profit company, it just actually donates the money raised to the partner charity.

Their donation links go straight to the charity, PayPal clearly tells you who you're sending money to
