While the trailer (after the post break) may be DEVOID'D of Teen Girl Squad content, it totally confirms the appearance in Episode 1: Homestar Ruiner of one of the most lovable characters in all of the Homestar Runner universe: The Stick. Or is The Stick more of a location than a character?
If that's not Strong Badical enough, you can play an exclusive tech demo at Strong Bad's dev blog!

Is it just me, or do some of those shots look super choppy. For example, the 5th picture where Homestar looks like he was drawn by a 3-year-old. This might be part of the style, but come on. I think the wii is capable of rendering smooth lines and curves. Most of the pics with curves look like a bunch of straight lines put together to look like curves.

That's a statue of Homestar; I believe it's made out of paper-mache.
In other words, it's supposed to look like that.

Okay, cool. I kind of figured it was something like that, but I couldn't find any other photos that had homestar in them, so I wasn't sure. At any rate, this game looks so freaking fun. I'm excited to play it.

Either way, it's Wiiware. I'd sacrifice a few curves for some extra MB. We need all we can get.

That "tech demo" is pretty hilarious :)

I'm really looking forward to this game. A little surprised at the T-rating, I was guessing it would be E10+ or whatever it's called these days. Oh well, doesn't affect me!

I'm suprised too. ANyway, lulz on the quote from episode 5! Anyway, the game looks hillarious! It's my most hyped game of the year (Except for episodes 2-5, of course)

I'm not surprised at all by the Teen rating... how is strong bad email meant for 10 year olds???
I don't know how you raise children, but I certainly wouldn't want my 10 year old seeing a mature cartoon like this. I mean.. do you people remember "crapfully yours?" that seems to be in every podcast? That and I think the jokes and content would go over your head if you were only 10.
I agree with the rating. Look back at some SBemails... maybe you forgot what the series is really like.

You might have a point...

Most 10+ know cursing and have (at least some) self control. The occasional innuendo is STILL just Innuendo (See: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/innuendo), Oh yeah. And they say "Cold One". And it looks like a root beer bottle. I understand the hinted topics are not for 10-, but most 10+ (and sometimes younger) don't pick up the hints, and understand most sarcasm.
