HRFWiki2:Fanstuff of the Month/August 2018

Coach E's Adventure is a fake unplayable video game by Bubs, Gfdgsgxgzgdrc, and Ilikepie38 (and indirectly SRMX12 and Branderson). It is based on Bubs's fan characters (mainly Coach E), and to a lesser extent, other users' fan characters. Bubs came up with the idea, Gfd created the graphics, Ilikepie thought of the title, and all three users created the ideas for the game. It was first suggested by Bubs in the Homsemails forum topic on September 13, 2015. The fanstuff was started by Gfd in his personal Sandbox on September 19, 2015, and the page was created on October 5, 2015. It is a 2D Videlectrix platformer game with puzzle elements. Most puzzles can be solved by strategically switching characters, as each character has different strengths and weaknesses. There are 11 main playable characters, plus 11 secret characters, and 4 holiday-exclusive characters (26 characters total). The player's goal is to complete all four levels in all ten worlds (40 levels total; 48 including the secret world and Halloween-exclusive world). When the player completes certain levels, a main Homestar Runner character will follow the player, becoming a "helper". Helpers' unique powers can be used to complete certain puzzles. There are 11 main helpers and 5 secret helpers (16 helpers total). The game's documentation is thorough and extensive (with subpages for the walkthrough, graphics, responses, music, shop, mini-games, and enemies and items), but it is still not finished. (more...)
