Summer Games Done Quick wrapped up over the weekend, having reached a fundraising total of over US$1.2 million for charity of choice Doctors Without Borders.

The annual, week-long event featured 160 speedruns (viewable here) of games ranging from Chrono Trigger to Tony Hawk to Borderlands, often with absurd added challenges.

22,000 donors gave an average of US$43.29, which seems remarkably high until one particular donor's US$21,498 contribution is taken into account.

The US$1.2 million total is nearly twice last year's total, and given that donations are still open, the total may still yet rise.

Games Done Quick will donate the money to Nobel Peace Prize-winning organisation Doctors Without Borders, which provides impartial medical assistance to people in nearly 70 countries beset by conflict, disaster, poor health care, or disease.
