New Atari 2600 cartridge!! (Homestar fans rejoice)

Hadn't seen this on the board yet and thought it was pretty cool...

In June, the creators of Homestar Runner will be releasing a brand spankin' new RPG (in cartridge form) for the Atari 2600. Talk about retro fanatics. The ROM will also be available for all of those without an actual 2600 console.

If there's bees in the trap I'm catching em
By the thorax and abdomen
And sanding the stingers down to a rough quill
Then I dip em in ink, and I scribble a bit
But if it they wriggle then I tickle em until they hold still
Lemme say it again
In my land of pretend
I use bees as a mf'n pen

I think it'll be made available in June at the www.homestarrunner.com store.

This has been discussed at length on the Atari Age forum if anyone is interested in more deatails from the developer:

I will definitly be buying this. I don't know this for a fact, but my guess would be that it will be available to purchase at the Atari Age store.

Speaking of Atari2600 cartriges, anyone remeber this one? Saw it around 1997-1998.



Just to spoil it all for you, it turned out to be a prank or april fools. I forget.
