Another glorious week of speedrunning is coming to an end. This year's Summer Games Done Quick is wrapping up today. The world's best speedrunners will run through some of the most memorable games of the past and present for one more day. As always, they'll do it for charity in front of a worldwide audience on Twitch.

Summer Games Done Quick 2024 is coming to you from the Hilton Minneapolis Downtown in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Most of this year's runners are on site for live runs, though a few will be checking in virtually for some remote runs. This year's event is raising money for Doctors Without Borders. Going into the final day, the runners have raised over $1.3 million. Shacknews will be watching this last day intently and will report back with the final totals once it's all over.

Before we get to the schedule, let's look at a highlight from Day 6. That's $1 million!

Summer Games Done Quick 2024: Day 7 schedule

Here's the full schedule for Day 7, taken from the Games Done Quick website, along with a handful of runs to check out. These times may change depending on how many runs go either long or short, but keep an eye on the comments for the latest updates.

2:30PM - Super Mario 64 Randomizer

This is not Bubzia's first rodeo at GDQ. In fact, he's been showing off with blindfolded Super Mario 64 runs for quite a while. Well, now he's got another trick up his sleeve. He's going to attempt a blindfolded run... on a randomizer. That means he won't know what Star he's attempting until jumps into a painting. Can he still hit his target time? Tune in to find out.

4:40PM - Super Metroid

It's the return of a hallowed institution the way everyone remembers it. Super Metroid is back and we're back to the good old days of the four-way race. Come see how our four runners do and see how many of them make it to the finish line, because there have been some years where that got a little dicey.

6:45PM - Super Mario RPG (2023)

Super Mario RPG has been another institution at Games Done Quick over the years. This will be the first time that the 2023 remake is being featured, so come check out the big differences between this and the 1996 classic and enjoy the final run of the week.

Summer Games Done Quick 2024 concludes tonight. Come back to Shacknews at the end of the night for the final totals. For more, check out the Games Done Quick website.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
