That is a very nice theory! I agree, personally.

I already suspected it, but the canon fantrolls being in both Universes (bar Descendant shenanigans) seems the clincher.

Mostly does better things now. Key word mostly. Writes things, but you'll never find them. Or you can ask.

@RenegadeShroom: that's actually a cool theory and I hope it happens. there aren't a billion other ways to escape death if you don't play the goddamn game, and it may mean the canon fantrolls are something more than living wallpaper.

also, I never said they had to die offscreen. what's the point of a big showy meteor apocalypse if you don't show it as an explosive ending? but as I said, I hope it doesn't happen, and as you said, it'd be kinda shitty.

also also, even if there's a thread for Hiveswap, it can always be discussed here too (especially when comparing stuff with the comic/discussing lore). after all, this is a HS-themed game.

wait and see, I guess. if they do escape to Universe C, I expect it to be vaguely nicknamed "another universe" because they want to keep continuity lockout away. note

Aaaaand it's delayed.

Status of Hiveswap: the game is just about done. It could still use some more testing to be absolutely certain we are not releasing a buggy piece of shit! To that end it will be worth waiting another several weeks or so. Perhaps more intriguingly I should mention that I've been working with some people on another thing, which will need to be announced when it is ready. I think it would be best to coordinate the announcement of the thing in question with the release of the game. So I'm not sure which will be done first, the thing or the testing, but neither will be unveiled until both are good and ready. Thank you as always for your legendary patience.

This song needs more love.

I figured it was going to be delayed.

Still, after waiting so long, a few more weeks is just a minor irritation.

Not surprising, but at least it's not a very big delay.

Reddit is surprisingly not all that salty like I thought it would be.

Remember to show patience. At least Hussie is acknowledging its existence and current state of being.

Homestuck fans are used to long breaks in content. Funny to think the same fanbase once went wild over a one week hiatus.

Indeed. I'm just glad he came out and said something rather than have January come and go with no word.

I mean, it was already pretty obvious it'd been delayed. January's almost over, after all.

Okay, I didn't back the game so I'm out of the loop re: all the new characters y'all seem to know about. I know Joey, Jude, Dammek, and that's it. Who's this Xefros I keep hearing about, and Trizza? New trolls, I presume? Does Trizza's name rhyme with "pizza?" I will assume that it does.

I also know that Roxy is in it, somehow.

Where can I turn to get the cold hard facts on Hiveswap?

Maybe this delay means backers will be able to beta test the game like they were promised? hahahahahahahaHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I feel like we shouldn't be getting hiveswap updates on the homestuck site but on the actual hiveswap page itself.

Aw man, I haven't seen you in a while Deadpool rocks.

And yeah, called it, we'd get a minor acknowledgement update before January's conclusion! This wasn't unexpected. I'm glad they're doing QC

@Thrice: Trizza is the Heiress that's been shown off and the potential Big Bad. Xefros is the Troll that's friends with Dammek and that Joey will meet when she lands on Alternia. Roxy is in the game maybe. It's the version that became Rose's Mom as it seems she played an older sister to Joey and Jude. We haven't seen her in game but rather in pictures with her as a teen and the kids as babies.

@Victin: Not really. Didn't that store fold and We Love Fine sells all the stuff now?

What Pumpkin is back, but its catalogue is somewhat limited. I browsed there a couple nights ago, in fact.

Yeah, the newsletter by Hussie mentioned What Pumpkin, and had a link to a What Pumpkin store, and I clicked the link and saw the page, and I was confused.

Damn, I never saw that! The site looks good. It's better than WLF which just chugs when you scroll down far enough and makes you wait for the load in.

You know that feeling where you're indifferent about something, but not indifferent enough to actually refrain from talking about it in the proper context and feel the inexplicable need to express your indifference, usually in the form of an oh-so-above-it-all "eh"?

That's me and Hiveswap.

My friend feels the same way about ME Andromeda. "The story was finished and adding more just feels too excessive and uninteresting". And no I'm not trying to say that I feel that way about Hiveswap. Homestuck 2.0 though, yes. Hiveswap's still interesting.
