Coming sometime soon for your Atari 2600: The first official Homestar Runner video game for a game console, RPG syle.

By Mike and Matt Chapman and Paul Slocum.

[UPDATE 1/04/05]: The game's on hold for a while. I'm too busy with my band and other projects to work on it right now, but I do plan to return to it when I can. Sorry it's taking so long, but that's life.

Features:
- Play as Homestar, Homsar, or Strongsad
- Large world, comparable in size to early computer RPGs
- Ability to save your place in the game with a code system
- Large amount of in-game story text
- Turn-based gameplay
- Mini-games
- Magic, weapons, HP, all the goods.
- Fight enemies from other Atari 2600 games
- Will be released as a cartridge for the Atari 2600
- ROM will also be released for emulators
- Strongbad is not playable because he is the villain!
- Sorry it's taking so long! I'm working on it as much as I can.

(Demo ROM updated 3/29/04)

This is a demo that should run on most of the Atari 2600 emulators (note: it's not playable yet). If you have a PC I suggest you use the Z26 emulator to try it out. Download Z26 and unzip the demo into the same folder, then run RUN_Z26.BAT.

For other emulators you may have to set the bankswitching to F6 and turn off the superchip RAM. You can find other emulators here.

If the bankswitching is not configured properly or you run the demo on an emulator that doesn't support some instructions that my program uses, it may crash at some points or get stuck on the title screen. However, the demo works fine on a real Atari 2600.
