We're a speedrun club focused on speedrunning underappreciated video games with empty speedboards every two months! www.boardboosters.com
It's August 1st, which means that our new boost has started! We're running Randall the Grape Jelly Cube.
Members have already made new discoveries and posted a new WR for the Any% category!
Randall oozes N64 era 3D platforming charm. We encourage you all to check it out. See you all on the board!

Huge thanks to @letalis.bsky.social and davidtki for joining us last night to walk us through optimal approaches to (the) Gnorp Apologue’s speedrun mode.
Given this knowledge, @zerocounts.bsky.social went into the run cold and was still able to finish a run of 20:06 after only 3 attempts!
We're live with What We Know So Far... for (the) Gnorp Apologue! Followed by the debut of our interview with Myco, the developer of the game!
twitch.tv/BoardBoosters
We were given the amazing opportunity to sit down and have a conversation with Myco, the developer of this month’s boost, (the) Gnorp Apologue!

Very pleased with the start to learning Quartet [SMS]. Wasn't expecting to go into run attempts tonight, but this has to be one of the quickest games we have learned for @boardboosters.bsky.social. Highly recommend checking out the community if you're interested in trying a different retro game.

Looking for something to do with your partner this Valentines Day? Our boost this month, Quartet for the Sega Master System, allows for 2-player simultaneous play!
Put up a time on the speedrun board this holiday ❤️ ❤️
It's February and that means a new Board Boosters speedrun!
We're learning Quartet for the Sega Master System. With a current world record of just over 6 minutes, this side-scrolling platform shooter is a recipe for a quick and fun speed game.

THE IGNITION FACTOR!
A SNES game by Jaleco where you obliterate fires and save lives as a firefighting team! This is our collective speedrun target for December.

A quick summary of our most recent chosen run: Organ Trail! Everyone submitted their best times on November 1st & a handful of our members really helped push the meta for this game. Great stuff!
We discuss this run and pick our December target game on November 24th over at twitch.tv/boardboosters!
Unbelievable!
