Homestuck has been one of the weirdest cultural movements to both witness and be a part of, so for it to rise again from the ashes feels both ridiculous and incredible after everything that has happened. It made me incredibly sad when I saw earlier this year that there was no development in sight for act 3, so to see this now it really really gets my hopes up. This world has serious potential, as evidenced by the sheer amount of fan made content. I know there have been many legitimate criticisms of Hussie and the team at large, but when I played act 1 and 2 earlier this year I felt that same magic that I felt when I first read the webcomic and saw the first flash animation with Jon joining the Sburb game. What I really want to say is that I really hope this game comes back from the dead. This is coming from someone who didn't grow up with those kinds of games. When I did play the games, I was blown away at the art style, the music, and how well the format transitioned into a point&click adventure game. I was not a backer, but I was a dedicated fan who patiently waited. I remember the kickstarter and being amazed at the funds it generated, only to be disappointed by the results. I've been a fan of homestuck since back in 2010-2011, but I only first played hiveswap act 1 and act 2 when it went on sale earlier this year. If you want to play anything in the meantime you can check out HIVESWAP FRIENDSIM and PESTERQUEST, some renpy games they made to pad out the wait time in-between ACT 1 and 2. I know this might come of as pessimistic but given these factors and what I've heard about the workplace environment at What Pumpkin I honestly doubt that ACT 3 is ever going to be finished, let alone the rest of the games that were supposed to come out. So they shifted the focus of ACT 2 to just making the train the main adventure.Īnd now they have to make ACT 3 from scratch with an engine they seem to barely understand. There were supposed to be trolls in those areas to interact and do puzzles with or whatever. There were whole sections and interactions of the game cut in the beginning, it's why there's just empty houses hives in the first part of the game as you walk to the train. I wouldn't hold your breath for ACT 3, because ACT 2 was actually in development hell for quite a while because a bunch of the people who designed the engine for the games are straight up gone from the team. Now anyone in the comments feel free to correct me on anything I write here, because my memory is hazy.
