On the Internet, no one can know you’re a dog. Except if you activate your cam. But let’s be honest: none of us would mind finding out that our conversation partner on the other side is a dog. Everything is better with dogs<\/strong>. They are adorable, loyal, and if we call them “man’s best friend,” it’s for a reason. That’s why if a dog has decided to become a speedrunner, we can only come here to tell you about it and celebrate it.<\/p>\n\n\n

Because that’s exactly what happened. A Shiba Inu named Peanut Butter is going to do a solo speedrun in the upcoming Awesome Games Done Quick event. He’ll be playing Gyromite, a 1985 NES platformer<\/strong>. If you’ve never heard of it, that’s normal because it’s not exactly one of the console classics, not even in the speedrunning scene. But it’s not that uncommon either. There are many speedrunners who specialize in niche games. And if this little dog has decided to do it, who are we to judge?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, Peanut Butter won’t be alone. He’ll be accompanied by JSR_, a speedrunner and also his owner, who will also participate in AGDQ 2024 by playing a slightly less niche game: Castlevania III: Dracula\u2019s Curse<\/strong>. Does that mean Peanut Butter has assistance? No. JSR_ directs Peanut Butter’s actions, but he is the one executing all the necessary movements, just like a speedrunner would use instructions from another speedrunner in a run where they had their eyes covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
