A build is one published version of the game's files on a branch. Steam assigns a new build ID every time the developer pushes an update, so this list is the update history of the app. The files inside a build (depot manifests) are only readable with an account that owns the game, which SteamRaw does not have yet, so build contents are not shown.

Original Story: Telltale can “no longer sell” the 2008 episodic comedy Strong Bad’s Cool Game For Attractive People, the developer announced in yesterday’s blog post. The studio have apparently lost the rights to the game and the series may or may not be pulled from storefronts soon, based on the slightly unclear wording of their notice. Read more
Unfortunately, we can no longer support Strong Bad’s Cool Game for Attractive People. We no longer have the rights to the IP and so we can no longer sell or support the game series. So, whether you’ve had a dance party with The Cheat or you poked fun at Homestar Runner, you can still download all your episodes from the PC digital storefronts where you bought the game. Thank you so much for playing. The Telltale Team
By the end of its run, Telltale was known primarily for adult-oriented stories in adapted franchises like Batman and The Walking Dead. But the studio's forrays with episodic adventure games began with some much sillier licenses, and now two of those original series have returned to digital distribution services: Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures and Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People (but you can play too). Like many Telltale games, these titles disappeared from digital distribution services following the company's shutdown in 2018, but now they're back courtesy of Telltale. Er, ye
The sad saga of Telltale’s fall is due one last tragic chapter. GOG have just announced that all of the defunct choose-your-own-adventure studio’s games will be de-listed next Monday, May 27th at 11am BST. That includes Telltale’s own games like Puzzle Agent, and all three seasons of Sam & Max adventures, as well as licensed games like The Wolf Among Us, Guardians Of The Galaxy, Batman, and the excellent Tales From The Borderlands. The last of which has already been removed from Steam, though publisher 2K Games are working to bring it (and it alone) back, as reported by E
Following yesterday’s initial reports that Telltale Games were effectively shutting down, the studio behind licensed story ’em ups including The Walking Dead and Batman: The Enemy Within have confirmed the bad news. All but 25 Telltale employees have been let go (that’s 250-ish people gone, former members report), cut down to a skeleton crew to “fulfil the company’s obligations to its board and partners.” The studio say they’ve had “a year marked by insurmountable challenges.” Telltale haven’t yet confirmed quite what will happen to
It's time for a new bundle of PC games from Indie Royale, with this week's batch collectively called The Mash. This bundle of five titles includes something from Telltale Games, and no, it's not Sam & Max or The Walking Dead. Telltale's comedy adventure Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People headlines the batch. Also included are the team-based airship game Guns of Icarus Online from Muse Games; a martial arts beat-em-up called Kung Fu Strike: The Warrior's Rise from Qoocsoft; the platformer KRUNCH from LeGrudge & Rugged; and Delve Deeper, a turn-based strategy game involving Dwarven min
Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People is now available as a SteamPlay title! To commemorate its launch, the game is available at 50% off now through Jan. 20th, 2011 10AM PST. As with all SteamPlay titles, buy once and play on either PC or Mac OSX. You may already know Strong Bad from his regular appearances answering emails and doling out not-so-useful advice on Homestarrunner.com, or from his latest appearance on Poker Night at the Inventory. Now he's the star of a five episode comedy series, Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People. With storylines co-written by the guys from Home
Attractive people might be interested to learn that the adventure game created expressly for them, Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People, is finally headed to PlayStation 3 and Mac, as announced yesterday by cool dude developer Telltale Games. Telltale's video game adaptation of web cartoon series Homestar Runner was originally released for PC and Nintendo's WiiWare download service in five monthly episodes, starting in August 2008. It'll launch for PlayStation 3 in North America on December 21, followed by a European PS3 release and Mac edition "shortly thereafter." Pricing has yet
