The update you've been waiting for
Posted by Emily	July 11, 2008
Okay, maybe this isn't the update you've been waiting for, but it's an update, and we know you've been waiting! It occurred to me today that it's been a while since we let you guys in on what we're up to. Lest you think that's because we're slacking off on the beach, I assure you, it's because we're all really busy doing stuff that you'll be thankful for later on. Like what? Oh, stuff like planning for Comic-Con, where there will be a signing with Steve and plenty of hands-on time with Sam & Max Wii and Strong Bad for people who attend the show, and rambling blogs so those of you who aren't attending can live vicariously through our sleep deprived haze. We're doing panels at Comic-Con, too... the schedule hasn't been announced yet, but as soon as it is, we'll clue you in! We've also got the Season Two DVD and some other new merchandise coming to the store soon, so woo! On top of this, we're making some games! Sam & Max for the Wii has reached the stage where the Wii fairy touches it with her wand and, with a poof of magical sparkles, it turns into a real live game on store shelves. (Watch for it at retail this fall!) Then there's Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People... just because we're not talking about it doesn't mean we're not working on it! A lot of people have been asking us about the release date, and you can rest easy that as soon as we know when the game will launch, we'll pass the details on to you. Don't forget, the WiiWare and PC releases of SBCG4AP will be simultaneous! Everyone wins! We're also plugging away on our super secret, not yet announced game series and it's coming along swimmingly. We should be able to spill some details pretty soon, which is good, because this game looks too good to keep it a secret much longer. (Okay, fine, you want a hint? It's a pretty big franchise, and one I bet none of you are expecting...) So yeah, lots going on around here, and it's time for me to quit gabbing and get back to doing my job. Whatever happened to taking summers off?

Strong Bad "Make a Mii" contest winners!

Posted by emily

June 26, 2008

After many long hours of deliberation, four winners have been chosen for the "Make a Mii" contest. We had over a hundred entries, and believe me, narrowing them down was tough!

The entries were judged by Telltale staff and the Brothers Chaps. (Oh, and Strong Bad, too. Sort of.) And the winners are...

Boxing Strong Bad
by Jared D. Weiss

We saw many a Strong Bad Mii in this competition, but the clever addition of boxing gloves up this one over the top.

Random fact: Apparently you can't give Miis green glasses. What's up with that?

Brothers Chaps at Heroes Con this weekend
Posted by emily	June 19, 2008
If you happen to be in the Charlotte, NC area this weekend, you should swing by the Heroes Convention, where Matt and Mike Chapman of Homestarrunner.com fame will be exhibiting, engaging people in conversation, and selling HSR schwag. Their booth number is 532, and the convention runs from tomorrow through Sunday. If you go, make sure to pick up this exclusive game advertisement, and get the Chapmans to sign it for you...

Strong Bad Contest: Make a Mii, win a game!
Posted by emily	May 21, 2008
Hey Wii owners, listen up! Since Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People will be coming out on WiiWare as well as PC, we thought the time was right for a little make-a-Mii contest. Just pick your favorite Homestarrunner.com character, fire up your Wii, and do your best (or worst) to make a Mii that looks like that character. You can pick from any of the main characters (HR Wiki has a nice list here). Three lucky winners will get a copy of the first SBCG4AP episode, Homestar Ruiner, when it launches on WiiWare. Woo! To enter: Send a picture of your Mii to contest@telltalegames.com. Put "Strong Bad Mii contest" in the subject line and keep your attachment under 1MB, please. In your email, include the character your Mii is of (just in case we can't tell...) and your Wii friend code so we can get you your prize if you win. One entry per person, so send in your best Mii! The contest closes Sunday, June 14 15 at 11:59 pm Pacific time and we'll post the winning Miis on the blog the following week. (Not sure how to make a Mii? Nintendo's site has the answers.)
