Keypress Easter Eggs in Toons

Fluffy Puff Commercial

• If you press L the screen becomes Abraham Lincoln's profile silhouette.
  • This will only work for a lowercase l. Having Caps Lock on, or holding down Shift, Ctrl or Alt will cancel the effect.

Meet Marshie

• At the end of the toon, press r on the keyboard and Homestar Runner will say something.

HOMESTAR RUNNER: I hate that freakin' robot.

• Press f after the previous easter egg to hear a disclaimer from Fluffy Puff Marshmallows.

{We see the yellow screen from earlier, with the Fluffy Puff Marshmallows logo, a bag of marshmallows, and a jar of mayo.}

VOICEOVER: Fluffy Puff Marshmallows and Marshmallow Mayonnaise. Each sold separately. Comes with everything you see here. Batteries not included. Kids, don't eat nails. {pause} Is that it? Am I done? Can I go? Anybod—Anybody want to get something to eat?

• Note: These Easter eggs only work in lowercase.

mile

• Press 'O' on your keyboard at the end to see a silhouette of Strong Bad doing cartwheels over a bunch of hills with a song playing in the background, which is a takeoff of Old Intro 2.

personal favorites

• Also at the end you can hit the "q" key to hear Strong Bad's email intro tune again.

Keypress Easter Eggs in Games

50K Racewalker

• There is a "big head mode", similar to that found in many video games, especially first-person shooters and sports games. To toggle between "big head" and normal press the h key on the "Choose it out" screen.
• There is a "fat walker" mode. To toggle between a fat walker and a normal one press the f key on the "Choose it out" screen.
  • These tricks are case-sensitive and must be typed in lowercase.
• The arms on the walker can be moved up and down by pressing the arrow keys on the "Choose it out" screen.

TROGDOR!

• On the hints screen (found by clicking and holding the "G" on the TROGDOR title screen), you can use the Konami Code (up up down down left right left right B A, and then click the word "START"). This will start you off with 30 lives.
• During the game you can hit the "k" key to kick the game. This doesn't seem to give you any advantage, but it does cause the machine to repeat the word "TROGDOR!" (A reference to Arcade Game.)
