Homestar was a major highlight of my adolescence so seeing this gave me ALL the feels. My older sister's then-boyfriend even once tasked me with the dangerous mission of sneaking in my sleeping sisters room at midnight on her birthday to turn off her cellphone while her boyfriend (now husband) called and left about a dozen homestarrunner-styled voicemails to make it her own birthday homestar answering machine. It was epic.

Here's some other interesting trivia. Matt Chapman worked on Gravity Falls. In fact, he plays Soos's grandmother. Keep in mind, Matt is also Strong Bad's voice actor. They also have a board game based on Trogdor currently up on Kickstarter. Looks pretty amusing.

Matt voices all the male characters, except for a select few; like Teeg Dougland- voiced by Mike and the Limozeen members- voiced by Donnie. Mike is also the voices of the characters in The Cheat's computer cartoons.

@Samantha: Sure, but the fun of Easter eggs is finding them. Having them show at the end is better than nothing, but not as much fun as stumbling on one. @Mario: I hope that means they're converting the videos, too. I mean, they do have them on KZbin, so they might not think it is important to have them in HTML5. Even if all they did was play the KZbin video, but code the Easter eggs to work like they previously did, that would be amazing.

I still love Homestar. I discovered it in the early 2000s when I was in graduate school. I showed it to my daughter, who immediately loved it. We watched all the cartoons together and used to spend HOURS playing Stinkoman, Awesomecross, and Trogdor. I have a Homestar poster on my desk at school (on the front) and a full set of Cheat Commandos. My students don’t know who any of these characters are.

Like you, I watched all of these as I discovered them (I discovered SB somewhere before SBE email 45 (Techno)), and was thrilled when I saw Peasant Quest. Also I'm pretty sure that 5.25" floppy noise is specifically a Apple II drive noise when it's powered on. It gets the point across. Most Apple II's were connected to Amber or Green composite monitors, so I'd say does a respectable job of at least giving the look and sound of an Apple II as most people who had or used one would have used it circa 1986-1992.

Homestar Runner is one of the best and purest things to ever come out of the internet. I really started getting into it in 8th grade and early high school (right around the time the site was starting to wind down) and it left a huge impact on me. It's such a quotable show too that hardly a day goes by where something doesn't remind me of a moment from the show.

The Dangeresque game reminds me of Problem Sleuth, an adventure-game-inspired webcomic where a hardboiled detective is trapped in his office. He meets up with two other detectives in the offices next to his who are in the same situation, and together they have to solve crazier and crazier puzzles as everything spirals out of control. The whole thing was interactive in that readers would send in commands in the style of a text based adventure and the author would have the characters act the commands out. It's good fun if you like things getting silly.

Seeing this brings back the nostalgia feels. Seriously, I used to watch the cartoon all the time when I was feeling down. And the games were fun. I never played Peasant's Quest, but I did play some of the smaller games. One of those games being Trogdar The Burninator! This was a good review and a nice look back to a good flash series. I'm also glad you brought some of their underrated games to light. I really do hope they preserve these games so others can enjoy them. I know I'm going to be spending hours playing Peasant's Quest now.

I love Homestar Runner, it really connected with me in high school. I remember playing Peasant's Quest everyday after school, it felt like a chance to live the dream of playing games I couldn't before, like King's Quest. I never had a computer, or any game system for that matter, before high school. I also used to send Strong Bad e-mail, never got any of my questions answered though, I think my spelling was too good and left little room for the typical comedy. The site also introduced me to one of my favorite bands, They Might Be Giants, with The Cheat and Strong Sad's music video for "Experimental Film." Ugh, I feel I could write a book, or ten episode docu-series on how much my life was impacted by that silly website by the Brothers Chaps.

Sadly Strongbad never replied to the emails I sent him back in the day.. On the bright side, I did get to meet the Bros Chaps in person this year at Pax East! (woo!).. Interesting fact -- one of the Bros actually started developing little Nintendo DS versions of their games and showed them off at the panel.,. It was pretty neat ^_^

This was BRILLIANT. Homestar Runner is a terrific athlete and years later an ongoing source of pure creative joy. This brief peep into the site's games made me remember the several hours I spent after class in my school's computer lab, playing around with Rhino Feeder and such. Peasant's Quest was indeed one of the most memorable games in the site, and I personally recall waiting for it with excitement. A lot of it had to do with the fantastic live action trailer they made for the game.

I definitely played these games and toons !! And shared them with friends who came to love them !! Peasant's Quest was definitely the best, but Stinko Man was also very well designed. I also really liked Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People. I am very glad HSR is being preserved on KZbin, and despite the incredible competition for online entertainment these days, I hope the brother's chapp keep on entertaining and supporting their fans.

I'm kind of surprised you didn't bring up the the game Where's an Egg, but I believe that one is only on Videlectrixs' website. Apparently there were plans for a second Roomisode, but that never happened which is a shame. Great Jorb on the video.

Loooove this video!!! My first adventure game was KQ1, I literally learned how to read from playing it as a kid. I was obsessed with Homestar Runner. Peasant's Quest captivated me. Also, I thought Horny was just a sensible name for Willy Beamish's frog.

Thank you for this! H*R has been a big part of my life since 2002...I can't imagine what my life would be like without these characters! (btw Homsar was always my fav too) (p.s. you shanked my Jenga ship.)

This brings back so many memories. I didn't even know about the Dangeresque game! Also worth mentioning is the trailer for the live action Peasants Quest movie that aired during the Super Bowl* and recreated a ton of scenes from the game including throwing the baby

My sister and I were obsessed with this growing up. Don’t know how we found it but my favorite had to be the marshmallow commercial and teen girl squad! Just so fun and silly. Thank you for this nice reminder.

Hey, I am new to the channel and really enjoy your content :) I absolutely adored Homestar Runner when I discovered it in the early 2000's. Strongbad's emails were always a thing to look forward to, and I died laughing watching the Fluffy Puff commercial bits. I also had a cat named Trogdor. I feel dirty now because I never actually played Peasant's Quest...

Im a new subscriber, but i love your content!! Please keep it up. Homestar runner will forever hold a place in my heart. I love how all the emails had easter eggs you could click on. Every week you had to scroll over every letter, every image to find whatever silly thing they hid. Hey!! Are you going to be at the Portland retro game expo?

One very particular Homestar/Videlectrix game for me was Hallrrunner just for how silly the random encounters are. But it was actually my first delve into modding. If you downloaded the SWF file and the XML that should come with it, the XML file contains the encounters and the encounter replies when you try to talk/fight/jump them, and opening that XML into something like notepad and will let you edit them. I must've spent few hours coming up with things that were funny to me, and even if it was something as simple as typing stuff in notepad, it was really fun to get into modding during teenage years like you were doing that computer magic.

Is Homestar niche? It feels niche. I've met so few other people my age who know and enjoy it. It seems like it was mostly popular with folks 5-10 years my senior. But I love it still.

It has a demographic which if the fan costumes videos are anything to go by, it's mid western Caucasians. Which is a damn shame because Homestarrunner really is a cartoon series that everyone can enjoy but I remember quite clearly doing a report about Homestarrunner in my black majority school and when I asked the class about Homestarrunner only the white kids knew. Sorry to make it racial, just talking about my past. I reckon these days it's just anachronistic. All of Homestarrunner's meme potential has been mined, visiting individual websites to see content has fallen to the wayside, even flash is basically dead. Homestarrunner just doesn't have reach like it used to.
