The Atari 2600.

An Atari 2600 main page.

Places: Atari The Field

Icon: Atari joystick

Page title: "Homestar Runner Game Pac"

Button Effects

Toons$ — The color of the sky alternates between blue, orange, purple, red, and lavender.
Games# — An airplane flies by and drops a bomb.
Characters@ — Strong Bad jumps on screen. He disappears pixel-by-pixel when you remove the cursor from the button.
Downloads@ — Background is turned into a moving road from a racing game.
Store# — Marzipan goes across the screen chasing a butterfly with a net.
Email# — Strong Bad, holding the Enchanted Chalice from Adventure, runs away from Yorgle the Atari Dragon while yelling, "Somebody get this freakin' duck away from me!"

The scrolling road is like a daytime version of Nighttime Driving Type Game from Strong Bad's Message Bored.

The plane isn't low. It's just in the foreground.

The wing of the airplane will pass over any action happening in The Field. The only thing it does not pass is Homestar Runner's head.
After Strong Bad runs across the screen when the cursor rolls over "Email", the Flash file restarts itself, causing the What's New links to disappear for one frame.

Strong Bad's line is a reference to Homestar Runner's line from the first deleted scenes on In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD.

The sound effects for the "Games" and "Email" buttons are taken from the Atari 2600 game Combat.
The sound effect when you mouse over the "Characters" button is from the Atari 2600 game Pitfall!, when Pitfall Harry would collect a gold bar, diamond ring, etc.
The effect when Strong Bad disappears is from Pac-Man for the Atari 2600. The first sound effect made when you mouse over the "Downloads" button is the sound Pac-Man makes when eating a pellet.
