Strong Bad Mod For Half-Life In Development

Posted by simoniker on from the the-cheat-gets-a-trophy dept.

Thanks to EvilAvatar for pointing out these preview renders (via PlanetHalfLife) of a Strong Bad mod for Half-Life, as based on the wildly popular Web cartoon (do I hear Cartoon Network calling?) Homestar Runner. The mod's homepage promises unique weapons and multiplayer modes, but doesn't guarantee gameplay interludes for Strong Bad Email Updates. C'est la vie?

    I can't justify reading the article at work, so I have no idea whether StrongMad will be a playable model in multiplayer. =P

    This is not fair, there's no way strongbad can play Halflife on his 386.

    If I can be coach Z I'll be happy.

    they include his techno song as an option to play in a loop while you run around shooting people.

    There is a TROGDOR flash game on the homestarrunner site. You eat villagers and burninate the village while avoiding the knights and archers.

    I know a few people who will buy Half Life so they can play this, if it turns out well.

    Dear Strong Bad,

    How do you fire your weapons with boxing gloves on your hands?

    (no doubt this E-mail will be...DELETED!)
