Excellent work, this Speedrunner did very well and was also quite good at making sure there were sections for donations. I like how he especially made time for donations by planning out a couple of failures of cutscene skips thus increasing the amount of time for donations.
For anyone curious about Liquids pace: (also spoilers for the run if you haven't seen it yet) Before failing Apu cutscene skip he was +43s Considering the fact that his World Record pace had a slow Apu and a really fast Bart2/Homer2 I don't think he would've had the timesave to beat his PB. He could have barely squeezed out a sub 1:20 but that would've required him to match his near perfect splits in Bart2 and Homer2. It's still impressive that he was less than a minute behind on an educational run
lol timing guy wasn't ready, you can tell its one of the last days of the event, haha. THANK YOU GDQ producers, staff, and production team! You guys are awesome and although you are behind the scenes- we recognize and appreciate everything you do! This has been an amazing event.
I almost spit out my food at 21:28 when I got name dropped - THE JOR ROUTE LIVES! I'm glad to be called out as one of the slowest runners on a GDQ stream haha
It is SO DISORIENTATING hearing an Aussie on GDQ! 😅 i laughed at "dono's", feels like home lol Great run, lots of fun and nostalgia. I struggled with this game when I was younger so this was very satisfying
Anyone watching these after AGDQ is over please check out hit and run remastered when it releases, it's an amazing fan project and please follow the youtube channel that's making it, I'm not connected to them, I'm just an artist who's trying to get into animation that's super impressed with that person's ability to replicate the simpsons animation style as they completely recreated the cutscenes in 2D instead of upscaling the existing ones
I like that Bart and Lisa drive cars and nobody thinks this is even worth mentioning. (Also, Lisa committing hit and runs because it's faster is excellent.)
It's a 20-year-old game, with no hardcoded frame cap. It churns out as many frames as it can, which is a _lot_ when your computer is from decades in the future (compared to it).
You didn't kick marge at the start. I don't think this run is valid. lol
Agreed, movement to invalidate the run seconded.
Liquid’s presentation was good. Been watching him run this for a long time.
So glad to see LiquidWifi finally attend the event
Yes! SO glad for him, well deserved

This was terrific to watch! I loved playing this game when I was younger, and I always love seeing the tech used in runs I've never seen before.
Great speedrun! Gosh this game was a gem, loved playing it back in the day!!
One of my favorite childhood games

If anyone is curious too, the adjusted time is -15.36 ish so total time for run would be ~1:24:54.84 and time code for "Run starts" would be 0:14♥
Really wanted to watch this live but this works just as well. So hyped to see LiquidWifi at GDQ :)

BACK TO HOMER1!
Congrats on getting to play this with GDQ
EGGS FOR BART!
Great to see Liquid at GDQ, hopefully the first time of many.
Best speedrunner on the web!!
Failed CS skip though FeelsBadMan
What a great game my childhood
Great game, great runner, this was very enjoyable to watch.

You can tell this was how the game was intended to be played because you don't hear any of the voice clips repeated this way
I remember when Liquid WiFi said they will never invite him into GDQ!
I just noticed the runner's flag. I gotta find a copy and play this game.
Class act with that flag
1:19:07 Spidercar, spidercar. Does whatever a spidercar does.
Awesome gotta love seeing Wi-Fi on gdq
55:25 best song in the game \m/
🎶 I am evil homer 🎶

this guy has clearly played knifey spoony before
1:14:54 I don't think I can convey the shock I felt when I heard frozenflygone read my donation. Was not expecting that at all
Awesome that liquidwifi is in gdq.
7:16 I was not expecting that hahaha
Nice run.
I didn't even know this game was on PC
Cant wait to see the speed runs on the "remake"
Who needs to watch ‘The Simpsons: Hit and Run’?
I dooooooooooo
What's the poem though? Anyone got a link?
If they remaster this game I wonder if they'll remove apus part
big up Liquidwifi
Is there a ps2 category for this game?
If grand theft auto was only a Simpsons game
...Were _all_ of the game's techs discovered by random newbies randomly showing them off in races, or something? xD
LIQUIDWIFI
hi
Wow I'm super early
First. Also why does the PC go at 700+fps
better than 450 fps
The fps on pc is unlocked by default so it will run at whatever your pc can do, because the game is from 2003 a modern pc can do 500+ easily
