Always ready to talk shop about how things get made!
@bobbeigh.is.tall.fyi very graciously asked me for even a concept of a prize that I could do in the time between AGDQ and Back to Black 2026, and I just couldn't say no!

So I kind of skipped the concept art and consultation stage and just did it. Oops.

I feel like the Iine from jurassic park gets used a lot in reference to companies like OpenAI, but lets give it a different cut:

"Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they could actually turn a profit."

So, recap time. AGDG2026 was one of best events Ive ever been to. People, volunteering, experiences, top shelf.

Shoutouts in particular to my Safety Fam, Setup crew, and World 9 fam. Did my first ever party, first cosplay, first wine tasting, and more!

GDQ is my found fam, and I love you all.

I forgot to do this before the event, but your game inspired me to make these things for AGDQ2026, @sandfallgames.bsky.social

I want an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation that focuses on Riker trying to stall hostile aliens on the holodeck by reprising his role in an in universe version of Fact or Fiction.

"It is after Midnight. You come across a small pumpkin carved to look like a carriage rocking back and forth in the street.

There's a tiny delinquent princess inside who can't escape, not without your help, but you're not helping, why is that?"

Listen I may Bladerunner on the brain.

I'm doing a raffle to celebrate 200 followers! Since it's 2 (hundred), we'll do 2 winners - one gets a medium scale tail, and one gets a choker!

If you're already following me, then just reply OR reskeet to enter! (it's more for fun than growth). Winners drawn in ~one week

Thanks for being you!

In progress, from left to right, Dualiso, Delaram, and an unnamed charity sword. Dualiso and the charity sword will likely be done first, Dualiso just needing oxidation, painting, and finishing.

Dualiso and Delaram are currently slated as Prize submissions for a future event, we all know which one!

The fundamental misunderstanding here (other than being a shit person) is the belief that GDQ is a speedrunning marathon.

It isn't.

GDQ is a charity marathon. It exists to raise money for charity. It does that through speedrunning and high-level gaming.

Charity first. That's the priority.
the major responses to this (aside from people responding "fuck off") being AusSpeedruns is disappointing, I thought ASM had a better audience than that

Almost home from SGDQ! I met so many amazing folks, but I wanted to shout out the utterly fantastic GDQ Prize Team! @shout.rocks @bobbeigh.is.tall.fyi @rubiehart.bsky.social were so kind, accommodating, inquisitive, professional, and talented! I was so honored by how they presented my submission!
