i don't know what desert bus is and at this point it feels awkward to ask
@Felthry Oh, an important bit of context here is that it's hosted by a canadian internet sketch comedy troupe.
@starkatt see we'd heard of the game but people kept talking about it like it was an event and that was really confusing because is it a game or an event or what is going on
literal answer to the implicit question
@Felthry from most to least relevant:
- Desert Bus for Hope is Loading Ready Run's annual marathon game session charity stream for Child's Play. The game in question is boring, so they fill up the time with other stuff.
- Child's Play is a charity that donates games and toys to children's hospitals.
- Loading Ready Run is a Canadian comedy group that does video sketches, gaming news, Magic: the Gathering stuff, and some other things.
- Desert Bus, the game played in the marathon, is a minigame from an unreleased Penn & Teller SegaCD game where the player drives an eight-hour bus route back and forth between Tucson, Arizona and Las Vegas, Nevada. Almost nothing happens.
@Felthry Charity fundraiser marathon livestream framed around a terrible game where you ~endlessly drive a bus in a straight line while it slowly drifts to the right.
