Howdy! I'm the marketing director for Ironside Computers, Chris. As a longtime fan of speedrunning, I'm incredibly happy I have the opportunity to finally support the community in a serious way.

A month ago, we hosted an experimental small bounty: https://twitter.com/IronsidePC/status/1380209494588854274

That did really well, and I just got approved to go bigger with it. Each month we're going to be hosting a $500 prize pool bounty for a new speedrun.

I need help though. I can't ask people to make WR attempts over a 3 week span if the game is already hugely competitive. On the other hand, I can't pick a dead game without any existing resources to make picking up the game quick/easy.

That Shrek game was perfect: A meme-ish run about 1 hour long that's free to download with not a lot of competition.

I would love to hear y'alls suggestions for games with similar characteristics to post a bounty for. Feel free to suggest something that kind of fits the characteristics. Run is 45min? Game costs less than $5? I'll hear you out.
