SBURB Trivia

(sorry for the damn reupload, the gif stopped gif-ing thanks to bluesky's dumb bullshit. it's a video file now because of that. -⚙)

In SBURB, if you play the game on 4/13 the earth's sun gains text reading "Homestuck" next to it.
This is in reference of the highly popular playthrough series Homestuck, which is regarded as a very influential part of SBURB's popularity.

(Apologies for the lack of a custom graphic, we are currently experiencing technical difficulties with SBURB on our end, but we didn't want to leave this account with no content. Hope you understand! :D

In 2010, a couple got a divorce over SBURB. The former wife was a Seer of Light, and her character's high perception allowed it to deduce (accurately) that her at the time husband was cheating on her.

The former husband went on the SBURB forums to complain, and became an infamous meme.

Credits Designed and Created by A.H.

In SBURB's credits sequence, the design and creation is attributed to "A.H."

To this day, the person behind this pseudonym has never been identified.

Screencap from the article. The reviewer is shown using a very powerful FLAMETHROWERKIND weapon against two ogres.

The weapon in question, it requires: 130000 DIAMOND GRIST; 50000 RAINBOW GRIST; 4000000 TAR GRIST; 30000 URANIUM GRIST.

In the IGN review for SBURB, the reviewer appears to be using a very strong weapon despite explicitly stating that he didn't play the game for long.

Shortly after the review came out, the user u/tentacleTherapist reverse engineered the weapon, showing probable editing of game files in the review.

Spiders are considered unusually nice in SBURB. However, that is not intentional. Due to an oversight in the game's code, the MEANESS attribute given to spider-like objects goes over the 255 limit, overflowing it to -256, thus turning it "nice" instead. Here's an example using the PROTOTYPING function. Unprototyped Sprite; Attributes are all set to 0. + Flourite Octet; Spider Themed Weapon; +8888 MEANESS to Sprite. = Spidersprite; MEANESS overflows to negatives; Most useful sprite in the game. It is unclear how this mistake went unnoticed on release. With the 11/11 DLC, this was fixed and the MEANESS, along with several other attributes, hard caps at 255, preventing overflow.

In SBURB, spiders are considered to be unusually kind. Not many are aware that this is actually a bug in the game's code, caused by a very obvious overflow in the game's code.
