[@KyleColantonio]

For those wondering about the game, it's called "Hiveswap" -- hiveswap.com/. You can visit that page for more information.

[@dippwertthedipp7593]

Kyle Colantonio because its coming out some day...

[@DarkGamer641]

It's obviously releasing in January 2017 DUNKASS

[@lobster9059]

OBVIOUSLY

[@data6022]

Now we are waiting act 2 .

[@viket8316]

wait it change the name? i thought was just a click bait for scam everyone and i come to laugh this year but looks like im wrong going to see how it looks

[@RandomCakeyNathan]

Behold, the greatest challenge ever: trying to make sense of any of this if you haven't read Homestuck.

[@StraightFlame]

Or maybe we could just send this to our non-Homestuck-reading friends and then ask them what they think Homestuck is about.

[@imaginationnone9297]

especially the 5 INCHES OF PUPPET DONG

[@cataleptickraken3197]

yes it is about kids and many of them have powers at some times. they fight monsters indeed. they occasionally travel thru space. they don't protect the world but the stakes are very hig. there is MUCH more than this. yes you should read it because its free and also great.

[@SmallIGuess]

Ikr

[@rubedaems]

bruh killer 7's plot looks extremely normal after watching this

[@CyberDork34]

Trailer: A bunch of awesome scenes from the comic Hiveswap: Barely related to Homestuck whatsoever.

[@Bluntteh]

Kind of the point? This wasn't intended as a trailer, but a sample of what Homestuck was on the kick starter. Besides, not much footage of Hiveswap has even been released.

[@raven-uv4hh]

Hiveswap still has elements of Homestuck in it, just with new characters. It involves Earth and Alternia

[@The_Andromeda_Galaxy]

Well then dont compare the two, thats a big mistake most people make, they always want a game to be just like the game but better, or to be really similar, it doesnt have to be.

[@rdm185]

HIVESWAP IS FUN!! 0ω0

[@roseph5922]

Hiveswap is cool

[@twentytwoarts]

*patiently waits for Homestuck movie*

[@yipperyapper3389]

Ikr?!?! Would make more sense. I'd worship that movie. I can imagine the hundreds of cosplayers XP

[@twentytwoarts]

I lied about the patient part. BRING IT TO US NOW HUSSIE!!!!!!!!! Purreaty purrlease?? I'll go as freaking Jade if I wanna!

[@ArtistTheArtist05]

[@crimsonleavesfalling5224]

*still doesn't understand* :(

[@ChanceTheBrony]

Aveyond Keiver This is long overdue: mspaintadventures.com/scraps2/homestuckKS.html Hope this helps! :)

[@GoldLuminance]

I showed mine Cascade. xD

[@Kazzax100]

but.. it's full of spoilers

[@CyberDork34]

Kevin Thomas Also it makes people think that all of Homestuck is like Cascade or the trailer, but its not. Its mainly kids talking to each other really.

[@joshuaarocho9440]

I love how ironically inaccurate this trailer is. The HomeStuck Adventure Game has almost nothing to do with any of what is shown here (specifically SBurb).

[@yeenjaw]

The original devs dropped the game so they just made hiveswap :/

[@voidfulunarxecularity8726]

it literally just feels like a homestuck amv rather than a game trailer lmao.

[@calicorn5201]

So we're about 30 minutes away from the possible upload to the end of Homestuck... Just gotta say, this was the video that partly got me into this insane comic, and I don't really regret any of it.

[@yipperyapper3389]

I got into it a week before the final update XD I'm sad it's ending even though I still got a long way to go

[@lost_infog]

[@paledrake]

Same, little late to say this now though. Welp, its the thought that counts...right?

[@ohnoitsnoah]

this is history right here wtf

[@ambernoel3992]

so much DAVE.

[@higztv1166]

This is basicly "from creators of [title]" thing, but the whole trailer is made of it

[@Xelipho]

Lol, all of you people reading this in 2012 would be jealous to know that it's coming out in a few months. Wait. Hold on a second...

[@Xenolis]

Wait, it's coming out soon?

[@Xelipho]

sonicx5757 It was supposed to be released mid-2015, but they bumped the release up. DAMMIT.

[@KevinMejia-wh9nw]

+Xelipho undertale???

[@Xelipho]

Kevin Mejia ...Really? Look at the title of the video!

[@miss_bec]

I'm glad they bumped the release date. More time we can spend in the fandom before Hiveswap fandom is born and kills the Homestuck fandom.

[@bringi413]

only mildly disappointed this isnt 4:13 long

[@aitamopoldaccount1497]

M31TD0WN 413 is the number and date of john's birthday.

[@crunchu2361]

what if hiveswap is just the strifes with Joey Claire's face poorly cropped on top

[@m1keyd]

I hate it when people skip acts..I mean srsly people..you won't understand ANYTHING if you skip..btw I finished Homestuck a months ago..and not the stupid giga pause is killing me.

[@gametron1]

Same here brutha *Bro/Sis-hug*

[@believeinthenet]

I completely agree. In the whole saga I have skipped exactly 3 pages, 2 of which were Hussie's recaps, and the other a page of Aranea/Vriska's ancestors diary, which was ridiculously boring and I had a headache at the time :/

[@skyestewart8139]

I only ever skipped Rose's GameFAQ pages.

[@ChanceTheBrony]

I skipped a game or two, because that shit gets tiring, and now I don't know shit about the dancestors. I also skipped the parts where a conversation was copied/pasted, but that didn't cause much confusion. To skip a full act is just stupid, though.

[@person5195]

oh god Open bound.I think I lost my sanity afterwards

[@sleepyrepatillo1834]

I sifted through the comments and read something about the kickstarter money being stolen :( Now theres a lot of people saying they want their money back. And just how will theyw go about getting it back when the kickstarter page doesnt even have it.

[@ManyDog]

Yeah, Andrew Hussie first got one dev team to make the Homestuck game but a few months later they dropped it, and wasted some of Andrew's Kickstarter money. Now Andrew decided to make his own game dev team so this shit won't happen again. But now we know they are still working on the game.

[@DarkGamer641]

we've got toby fox working on the game.we're fine,he could just give hussie some of the money from undertale

[@psypokeslowduck2880]

Oh

[@DarkGamer641]

Hiveswap act 1 looks great so far

[@ManyDog]

Hero_of_Legend Wait, how do you know what happens in Hiveswap act 1

[@heyitskasey3226]

I like how that one note lined up well with Kanaya revving her chainsaw

[@mattBQ234]

People that see this before they start reading think this is fucking amazing then go to the first page.

[@person5195]

^

[@uberfighter962]

That's what I did, I read about 50 pages, then wondered when it would get interesting, 100 pages later, yeah no I'm done, someone give me a reason to read more.

[@person5195]

Yeah it can be hard to get people to read it I.E it gets into hyperdrive at the Middle of act 4 which is more than 1000 pages form beginning.

[@Brittney-is-here]

Uberfighter 96 don't worry it gets good at act 5

[@GenericClient]

that awkward moment when the action doesn't start instantaneously

[@xSurvivor7x]

KK's reaction at the end is EXACTLY MINE IN REALITY

[@gost4864]

[S] MSPA Reader: Remember

[@A_Nobbit]

when someone asks what homestuck is, i show this video

[@nekomichan7932]

Omg this games going to be increasingly long isn't it? It's homestuck we're talking about here. XD

[@nekomichan7932]

Hella.

[@LeonardMeltsner]

Well the game isn't an adaptation of Homestuck, I hope you realize. It won't even have the same characters.

[@LeonardMeltsner]

I just always try to make sure people know that on here, because it seems that many don'e, and nobody wants false expectations.

[@nekomichan7932]

Thank you LeonardMeltsner I wasn't aware! :D

[@valentinolovesINK]

Nekomi Chan hey it's the future talking The game is so fucking long

[@brunchcorpse6025]

This is homestuck. The awesome parts, the boring parts, the really random parts. I love this XD. The ending really made me laugh

[@intrstellas]

Looking back on this we probably could have saved a lot of time and effort just developing the homestuck game into a skullgirls-esque fighting game

[@carrotcommunist9216]

@sandstormMenace [SM] google Homestrife

[@paradoxicaloutcome1007]

I'm still somewhat flabbergasted that they got all their Kickstarter money for Hiveswap with vague promises, hopes and dreams... and it didn't blow up in their faces. I guess the project took so long that most people that gave money to this kickstarter forgot it even existed. Then again, Hiveswap sold practically nothing since the fandom had radically shrunk by the time it happened, so it did, in a roundabout way, blow up in their face.

[@Racesolar]

it absolutely blew up in their face with the constant "the game will be out at the end of the year! *no updates until a few months after* we've got a new studio! *no updates* we've got a new studio! also we're redoing the game from scratch, it'll be out soon! *no updates* we've got a new studio!" it was vague promises and hopes and dreams, with a trailer that capitalized on making people excited for something that wasn't going to be anything like the trailer showed, that then got funded 2.5 million dollars and was handled by a creator and team that had absolutely no experience making a full game lmao,, hiveswap, by itself, is actually really good. it's cute, it's fun, you can enjoy it by itself without ever reading homestuck, but the development cycle on it was complete absolute dogshit and it's incredible it came out at all (and hiveswap act 3+4 plus the originally announced sequel to it won't come out for forever, probably)

[@EmberDarkBlade1]

I officially declare this the video you show your friends if introducing them to Homestuck. (though it has spoilers, it's not like they'll remember all of this.)

[@EllySolo]

HOMESTUCK IS MAKING A GAME? MY GOD THIS IS GONNA BE GREAT.

At the end i just fell off my chair

[@LlyonaFang]

alright once i get some portable screen thing wiht speakers, I'm gonna runa orund school blasting dance of thorns out of the thingy while this video is playing best way to get people in the fandom

no cuz im hyper and that takes away all ability from my fingers to ttype correctly

[@LlyonaFang]

Nighthawke2 I understand you standing up for me but don't. I don't know it feels offensive to Connor Campbell and this kind of stuff is just gonna cause flame wars... which i hate... a lot

[@LlyonaFang]

lmao

[@notdog1996]

That's the first thing I saw of Homestuck. It really shows how awesome Homestuck is.

[@crazykirby97]

Deep inside I hope each character has a different genre of gameplay. You get the idea. John is a platformer where he uses his hammers to gain new abilities. Rose is a more Zelda-like puzzle game where spells aid her. Dave is a beat-em-up with his epic swords. Jade is an FPS or some kind of shooting game. and most importantly, Lil' Cal would be the best fucking game ever.

[@LShiftlessShenanigans]

Lil cal is walking simulator

[@wuty2255]

i feel like im watching anime opening right now

[@eclipsestarfaller6610]

This hyped me up to reread Homestuck

[@namiokami5063]

OK. I want this game, and I want it soon. Better have Radiation in it or riot.

[@TheHannahfied]

After the days of sadness I felt because of Jon leaving Game Grumps and reading depressing, yet likely possibilities for the end of Homestuck, this comment made my day. Thank you.

[@danganpapa2209]

Homestuck is now over.

[@danganpapa2209]

+Fairy Flyer Yeah!!

[@miss_bec]

[@jamescameron5090]

And then they made Hiveswap nothing like the original trailer.

[@BlackKatJane]

I lost count on how many times I replayed this video.

[@OhHeyJude]

Why does this trailer remind me of an anime opening?

[@enquisunique8309]

Gotta love how 50% of this was actual good moments and the the rest is just memes and/or homestuck jokes

[@greycoffee801]

alright so im gonna try again to bring a friend to the fandom with this video thx

[@VantenPlayz]

I hope the game will be in the art style of Homestuck and that its like you have your own seccion that you and your friends can do together! I want it to be where they have a character creation and make it so that we can have our own private seccions and BAM! SBurb the game!

[@sickprick5791]

I feel bad for you

[@KyleColantonio]

Homestuck is a webcomic that includes GIF's, Flash Games and Flash Videos. It's original creation was to mock games like "The Sims" and stuff. Now it's just a crazy as hell webcomic - that's about all I can tell you. xD

this, this makes me happy

[@BigTerra92]

Everyone will be able to buy the game when it's out. What donating money to the kickstarter does, is giving you the game free when it's out, and some merch and stuff, obviously all depends on how much money you donate

[@KyleColantonio]

Hussie is a super wizard.

[@chiptunesoprano]

He draws in the style of MSPaint, which is why its called MSPaintAdventures. He may have actually used paint at one point, but now he just keeps the style, which you can do with the pencil tool in Photoshop

[@ebaybumpstock]

Homestuck is a webcomic drawn and written by Andrew Hussie, the fourth installment of the MSPaintAdventure comics. It is notable as a webcomic for it's speed of update (At least two pages a day if Hussie is not animating a flash), It's flash pages complete with a decent soundtrack, Its endearing characters and the occasional absolute horror it can inspire.
