Very carefully, I assume.

I had these games on Wii Virtual Console, but I seem to have lost them on the switch to the Wii U. They were some good times. Thanks for playing through them again!

I had the Wii copy of the game glitch and freeze on me. I only bought it on there because it almost seemed like the game was gonna be released for the Wii and nothing else.

A boxing glove has a part of it surface that is slightly outward than any other. The question is how much practice did Strong Bad have in order to type that fast?

I loved Stinkoman and I think I tried to do a full playthrough once. No chance in hell. That game will gently caress you up, legit or not. I think they still haven't fixed the glitch in level 1 where if you die on the boss fight, the floor vanishes.

A Peasant's Quest LP would rock though. I think that's my favourite game on the site.

EDIT: Aggggghhhhh, what the crap? The last 3 minutes of this video didn't get uploaded? Why does this just happen to have the same length as episode 9 down to the second? Something's not right here. I'll try to get this fixed sometime soon, but it may not happen until tomorrow. I wasn't expecting there to be any problems.

EDIT 2: removed broken episode for now.

So apparently, not only is the encoded video the wrong length, but MeGUI also refuses to see the whole length of the recorded video meaning there's probably something wrong with that. Which means I have to redo the first part of the game and either record just the ending and splice it in or re-record the whole dang thing. Fantastic.

I'll try and fix it tomorrow. Maybe. Ugh.

There's actually three Easter eggs on the end end screen, but one of them is more involved than the others. I won't say what to click on so that others can find these things themselves.

This is the best April Fools day ever in the history of ever. Of course this update has seemed to destroyed the official Homestar Wiki so it's gonna be a while till I can look up and cheat all the Easter eggs out of this cartoon. Also they might not have found everything yet.

I had a bonus little "Not Quite April Fools" update planned for yesterday, but it didn't go through. Alas.

Anyway, now that I've got a bunch of things sorted out (technical and non-technical), the next two videos (one might be a episode 1 bonus) should be up by the end of the week and we can continue this thing full force. Provided OBS, MeGUI, Avisynth, and YouTube all cooperate with me. Please.

On the one hand, crap, I've been outdone with a gif with the actual scrolling Tandy lines.

On the other hand, the generic look command doesn't give you any points. :smug: (I showed off everything that gives you points, aside from trying to get the trinket again, which takes away a point)

Yes. I have to re-record two of them and unfortunately in this case that means redoing the end of the game and, in the case of one bonus video, do some tedious bullshit. Eventually. Don't worry.

I think this might have been better if it was just short clips of each song instead of nearly the whole thing, because I think this is too much fhqwhgads even for the biggest fhqwhgads aficionado to handle. Lose Yourself to Dance works really well, though.
