Hey everyone,

I am taking IB next year, and I'm very interested in video games in general.

I've been watching a lot of speedruns recently and must say that I really got interested in getting into the speedrunning scene, thus comes my question:

Can one speedrun games on CAS? Say f.ex. if my goal would be to LEARN and then SPEEDRUN a game called Star Wars: Jedi Knight Jedi Academy.

Was very surprised that I couldn't find any existing topics about speedrunning games here or by using google.

Thanks in advance,

~rspic

I am not saying video games cannot be CAS, but your description of which is difficult to justify as CAS. Some examples of how video games can be CAS:

  • Introduce others to video games to help relieve stress, or to cope with mental / psychological disorders
  • Make illustration / music accompaniment / creative writing based on the game
  • Play video games in which some rigorous physical activity is involved (eg XBox 350 Kinect, PlayStation Move, Pokemon Go while jogging)
  • Produce videos about video game recommendations/reviews, which would include some degree of video-editting and film making skills (including sound-mixing, storyboard planning, etc)

Good luck!

Some kids at my school did something like this. I'm not sure how learning to do it would work out, but these kids ended up doing a livestream where all the money collected was donated to charity. A few kids donated but it was mainly those running the event who put 20$ each so they ended up with 150$ or so to donate. They were able to play games every weekend for a whole month and then called it a service project.
