Planning something fun for #SGDQ2026. We'll see if it pans out.

I had a dream last night that my son had secretly taken a Zelda II world record, had submitted to a GDQ event, and was accepted. He asked to attend for the first time, and I said yes, so I figured he would just receive a child badge. Boy was I in for a shock when we arrived!

#SGDQ2026 attendees, 💪 show 💪 me 💪 your 💪 guns 💪 …please. I’m hunting for couch commentary.

Reminder for speedrunners who submitted to SGDQ 👇

What a pleasant surprise behind my house today…

Obligatory #SGDQ2026 Submissions plug: Henry the Hamster Handler VR - A Mobile Port that should not exist Koro Koro Post Nin - 2P1C Vertigo game with dowolf SABOR - Get JACKED and punch stuff Screaming Head - Just LOOK at and you’ll understand why it’s here Suburban Commando - DOS licensed junk

Hey you. Yeah you scrolling by… You’re awesome!

Completed my first Any% run of Screaming Head today. I finished in just over 1 hour, but there were many mistakes along the way. I’m excited to see how fast I can complete a run.

Screaming Head is out now! store.steampowered.com/app/3372460/...

SUB 3 ALL SUPERBOSSES IN EXPEDITION 33!!! JUST BARELY by 4 seconds. This run was nerve racking in the last 10 minutes because I was doing a challenge to get sub 3 or gift 33 subs. It was just enough motivation to clear that hour barrier. Let's Go!

I played my first Blue Prince bingo today. I did okay, but my buddy Chupa smoked me. I’m definitely going to do a few of these.

To my dear friend, the void: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH! Best wishes, -Ritz

When I get sick sometimes I have awful fever dreams. My brain creates an unsolvable puzzle, which it also believes is the source of my nocturnal suffering. If I could just solve that puzzle in my sleep, I’d feel better, but it never does. Blue Prince is the closest game to evoke that feeling in me.

I’m finally feeling the #GDQ blues. It’s been over a week to come down off the high, and I only now realized that there are so many awesome friends to see at the event, and I feel like I saw so many, but there’s also so many that I’ve barely even said hi to or didn’t even get an opportunity to talk.

Played some Dinosaur Island tonight with some friends. It turns out that if your dinosaur theme park kills enough patrons, you probably won’t win the game. My park did have the most dinosaurs though, so that’s a plus.

On the subject of GDQ dreams, today’s was much nicer, as it wasn’t the recurring dream of being told that your run for Hollow Knight or Yoshi’s Island is suddenly today. (I’ve never run those games.)

This morning I had vivid dreams of trying to get to another gaming event or getting lost in it. I saw several #GDQ friends here and there and had a great time in spite of being hopelessly lost. Does anyone else dream about GDQ friends?

Almost completely packed up for AGDQ. I had to pack the essentials first:

My wife knows me so well. I always wanted one ever since seeing it on the AGDQ prize list 5 years ago. I should play goose again…

I’m still looking for a roommate for AGDQ 2026. I only need arrangements for Tuesday night. DM me if interested.

I played some Archipelago yesterday - Main Game: Heretic Side Game: Paint. This most recent painting isn’t my best work, but I’m pleased how quickly I was able to reach my accuracy goal of 70%.

I’ve been enjoying Archipelago Paint randomizer for some time now. Yesterday I created this, both the meme image and its painted replica.

I didn’t break my record for most BBG submissions this year, but I did tie it. 2 VR games, and 2 Steam games. I did not submit any races this year, but this is my first ever co-op submission to a marathon! Here’s hoping it makes the cut.

I see what they did here…

I’ll be going live in around an hour for Fangame Marathon running Weird Al Versus Radioactive Hamsters! You can watch it live at www.twitch.tv/fangamemarat...

I’ve been enjoying karaoke as a side hobby for a few years now, and yet my brain has had a blind spot for Hotel California. It’s one of my all time favorites and for several years now it’s as if the song never existed. Guess I’ll have to get caught up tomorrow. Brains are weird.

The past couple of years I’ve been looking for VR games that would be good candidates for Big Bad Game-a-thon. I’ve played 2 Cactus Cowboy BR games for BBG, and both were heavily flawed in different ways. This year I’m playing through the third game in the series, and I’ve got to say, I’m torn.

Had a good evening gaming tonight. I got some great practice with the mystery BBG game with dowolf. I also sank my teeth into Bullets Per Minute, and I think I’m in love!

I found another VR game that just has me asking… why? I wonder if it has alternate control methods, because the movement gimmick is TERRIBLE for repetitive motion injuries. It’s perfect for BBG. (Don’t worry, I made my own control method).

On the subject of multiplayer bad games, if anyone is interested in a 6-player cooperative experience with awful controls and questionable content, dm me.

Had a wonderful time playing a new bad game project with some Kusogrande buddies. We finished faster than ever with 4 players, but I’m still hoping for a chaotic 6 player run.

what did i just agree to

#SGDQ2025 was the best GDQ I’ve experienced to date. I got to spend time with incredible people, old friends and new. The Kuso Live tournament and Kuso GM dinner have inspired me to start streaming again. I’ll post some rough hours here once I determine a schedule.

We just got a WORLD RECORD live on stage at #SGDQ2025 Thank you to my fellow runner @stevetvonline.bsky.social and our wonderful commentators @kingjo444.bsky.social and @ritzblues.bsky.social for making this the most memorable experience I could ever have. Love you all! 💜

Is it SGDQ yet? I need to sing some JoCo at karaoke with my peeps.

I dreamt about meeting new friends, playing new arcade games, and discovering new board games. Man, I miss GDQ.

I can’t help but wonder what Welcome to the Black Parade would sound like if Goofy sang it.

Last night was pretty fun. I got a sub 1:10 on RE4VR NG+FF, and I remembered about 70% of Koro Koro Post Nin. I need to find a balance between BBG and GDQ practice.

Got that weird game working last night and I’m glad I did. The cutscenes are solid gold, but the gameplay gets really repetitive. I did discover a potential speed tech, but boy is it ever jank. Why do the characters have to jump so high and floaty?

I love finding a new odd duck of a game that seems too silly to be real. U hate finding out that it crashes repeatedly at the end of the same level on my PC. Gotta fix it, I need more jank (but not that kind of jank).

Hey all, I’m Ritz. You may remember me from such events as GDQ, Kusogrande!, Mystery Game Blind Race, and BigBadGameathon. I enjoy “bad” or obscure games and want to find the janky, funny, fails/wins in video games of all flavors… then force the masses to witness them. www.twitch.tv/ritzblues783
