20X6 Wars!
From Homestar Runner Fanstuff Wiki
20X6 Wars is a scrolling shooter where you can be either Stinkoman, 1-Up, Cheatball, Pan-Pan, or 20X6 Coach Z! You also have the choice of playing on your keyboard or with a joystick! But, ye be warned, if you try to play on a joystick level and you have no joystick, you won't be able to move.
For those of you people who have Game Maker, this is just 1945_7 that's been totally tricked out.

February 20, 2010: Due to my no-longer-interested-in-the-HRFWiki state, I am discontinuing this game. Have fun with what's out.
August 5, 2008: I'm changing the "official" names for the versions. The first one is version 1. 1.NEW is now 2. And the version I'm working on now is 2.1, as it is mostly version 2, but with a few engine tweaks and at least one new level.
May 25, 2008: I've released v. 1.NEW! It is not the final, though, so some stuff is still yet to come.
May 23, 2008: Okay, the voice documentation for the help file has been...changed. For the better. See, I used to do it myself, but it was LAAAAME. So, tonight, I had some friends over, and one of them re-did the documentation. And it is AWESOME. You will laugh your jibney out. It was done by my friend Stephen, who is also a Homestar fan and who really should get an account. Just listen to it. You will regret it for the rest of your life if you don't.
May 21, 2008: Um, wow. I haven't done much on this in a while. But, I did get some stuffs that are pushing the game nearer to completion! I just need a few more things from a few more people, and then I'm good to go!
April 2, 2008: The game's release is unsure, but that's not my fault. I'm waiting for necessary sprites from one unnamed person. You know who you are. Once you give them to me I can release the newest version, but not the final one.
February 23, 2008: There are some users that have given me a spaceship sprite of themselves that are going to be included as secret characters!
February 20, 2008: I've put a simple download for those people <cough>TreeWithAChainsaw<cough> who didn't want to download stuff to their compys.
December 14, 2007: I have taken down the explanation due to me changing the file so much so often, and it's kinda obsolete anydangway.
December 10, 2007: Please tell me on the talk page if you have any troubles downloading the game.
November 24, 2007: Alright, everybody! I'm going to be making a page to tell everyone about the improvements and new features to Version 1.NEW! And for the love of Pete, please take my poll.
November 5, 2007: Look people, I'm not going to release v. 1.NEW until you take the freakin' poll!
October 25, 2007: Coming out with a new version when the poll results are in and programming is complete!
September 4, 2007: Just a minor note: the joystick version can be played on EITHER keyboard or joystick; the non-joystick version only has keyboard. I just wanted to clear that up.
September 2, 2007: Just released: a non-joystick version for those non-joystick owners! Plus, the executable AND the Game Maker File for both the joystick and the non-joystick game is in one .zip file each!
September 1, 2007: Believe it or not, but I've finished!
August 25, 2007: It turns out I figured out what was wrong with it shortly after I put this up. I'll be taking off the link to the Game Maker File, but I'll put it back on when I release the game. Oh, and the explanation will stay up, too.
August 24, 2007: Say, I'm having some problems. I get an error whenever I am on 1-Up's level. Can someone take a look at it and tell me what's going on? Here's an explanation of the Game Maker file and what's wrong with it. (Note: I use Game Maker 7. You NEED GM7 to run the file.)
