** Before Jade's actual name was revealed, forum members often called her "Gigi" (get it?). When she rose to God Tier, she incorporated Jadesprite and thus got dog ears; she was quickly dubbed "[[SdrawkcabName Dog]] [[{{Pun}} Tier]]". She also gained the nickname "Grimbark."

* ReferencedBy: Creator/TobyFox, who previously composed music for the comic, stated during the ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' sixth anniversary livestream that Alphys design in both that game and ''VideoGame/{{Deltarune}}'' was inspired by John Egbert.

* TroubledProduction: ''Hiveswap'' was originally planned to have been completed sometime in 2014, but it was pushed back and production shifted from The Odd Gentlemen to Hussie's own new studio What Pumpkin. As details as to why arose during late June 2015, The Odd Gentlemen had reportedly wasted a third of the Kickstarter's money on a new ''VideoGame/KingsQuest'' game while leaving Hiveswap as a buggy test demo composed of a single room and the player character being unable to properly walk, and What Pumpkin essentially needed to start from square one.

** The various YouTube videos Homestuck links to (such as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AW3aCuxY1DY this one]]) often find their comment sections dominated by fans.

* OldShame: At one point in his notes in the Act 4 book, Hussie stated that he'd written out a whole backstory for the Beta universe, detailing the Condesce's life as Betty Crocker and how things ended up where they were at the beginning of Act 1, then how it was really old and that nobody would want to read it anyway. At the beginning of 2019, the backstory was hidden as part of an ARG, and he immediately regretted it (as it contained some poorly chosen antisemitic views), to the point that he broke radio silence and [[https://i.redd.it/cg14gpak52821.jpg apologized for putting it up in the first place.]]
