I designed some merch type Keychain for H2D I'm pretty happy with the design I'm gonna try to make them look like actual Keychains but I need some supplies first, but it includes an attachable egg with the blood color and initial that you can add for whoever your bias is!!!

SAHCon Hiveswap Act 3 Panel - Art Assets!

here's what we got a look at in the panel today! :D

during the entire stream, a song by james roach from the Act 3 OST played in the background, which used similar sounds to the wii channel shop theme.

started off with some lovely background art of the area outside of fiamet's hive by xamag, followed by some character sprites of trolls done by dagmar! along with a still image of an imperial drone by paperseverywhere.

onhors's pants were reportedly a point of contention, as their design was difficult to stylize and simplify!

then we got a couple more lovely backgrounds by xamag of a mall, cridea's hive, some areas within the jadeblood caverns, and a spaceship with a giant heart in the inside?!

the team members commented that you can infer a lot about cridea's personality just from her room, which has a lot of cute animations in it in the actual game. they also mentioned that her design was reworked from its initial version and it's a lot cuter now!

apparently, we will be seeing a few "mall crawler jades" who were designed for this area. this is also where the new james roach track plays

this cavern entrance gate is a piece of adult-designed technology that has since fallen into disrepair over the sweeps. the team talked for a moment about how much adult-built architecture there may be abandoned all over alternia.

it was spoiled for us that joey is going to space!

the team talked a lot about how they would love to tell us the lore behind this heart, and many other alternian and hiveswapian things, but they must resist until the game is released.

after this they moved on to the QNA portion which i'll post separately :]

hope everyone is excited for the next installment of hiveswap!

this panel was streamed as part of SAHcon, and the vod is up here for archival viewing.

Act 3 Still in Development

According to James Roach, Hiveswap: Act 3 is still in active development. There was a hiatus in production for a while, but there was a meeting happening. The writing is done, it is just a matter of assets and programming. WhatPumpkin now only exists to keep Hiveswap in development. Andrew Hussie says to the team that they can do whatever they want with the IP because he does not care anymore.

Summary of Hiveswap Act 3 SAHCON panel

Courtesy of Makin from the Homestuck Discord server. I'm just sharing exactly what the announcement was! https://discord.gg/homestuck

Possible Act 3 spoilers, read more at your own risk

some of "the hiveswap act 3 team" (namely producer jonaya, musician james roach and artist kim quatz) had an AMA/panel during sahcon, take my summaries with a grain of salt but I'm known for being really accurate and right: tl;dr

no release date revealed (no mention of the highly elusive programming team either)

act 3 will have more adventure game puzzling like act 1, and it's "the big plot act"

showed new art of locations and characters like last time, as well as a music track

the full picture

james instantly mentions hiveswap has been worked on for over ten years already which was very funny

they played some wii shop channel-sounding music with the nuclear leitmotif

joey survives the train crash (MASSIVE SPOILERS)

fiamet is in an early part of the game (and we do see the train tracks in the background), they shared an animated sprite of her + a drone

cridea and jeevik week are part of this act, art of her was shared

three new characters (tiagon, onhors and luxora) were revealed

new location (shopping mall) for which the wii shop music is for, troll language translators please get to it

new location (jade caves)

new location (hallway in space (?) + machinery that may or may not be part of the same area)

Q&A starts 10 minutes before the panel ends:

once again, no release date, but heavy in production

they'd love to make hauntswitch but one thing at a time

some characters from act 2 will return in act 3 and act 4

the most interesting character is "dreadeye" who has a complicated quirk (I don't think she's been revealed)

act 3 will have more adventure game puzzling, which act 2 barely had. it's the big plot act

rest of questions will be answered on twitter
