January 7 & 14 2025 2010

Took a break to recharge but todays the big update so lets see what happened!

Last week Jade played leapfrog with the power of her bass guitar to make her way to the frog statue while Dave finally connected with Rose to get the game running.

SOO much happened in this soundpage my GOD was it worth a week wait!!!!! My notes are a bit all over the place but lets sort some important stuff.

First the loading screen shows the house logo on fire which is very fitting for the current situation. The music, Suburban Jungle, starts of very fast paced really adding to the urgency of the situation. Then Dave and Rose seem to be waiting for the game to load, while doing so the spirograph does this really cool shifting to the music's beat acting more like an audio visualizer. Smaller screens are interspersed to orient us with what is happening side by side with Jade entering the statue and John creating the Wrinklefucker.

Part way through loading, we see Jade walking deeper into the statue. On the walls are more heiroglyphs and the floor looks like it has an image of Skaia.

The image decends, likely the jammed elevator AR was dealing with though I didnt notice the image at the time. Jade finds a giant purple lily right as the game finishes loading. Thinking on it its fitting and odd that the PURPLE lily has been counting down this entire time but just happens to align with Rose's Cruxtruder.

We get the SBURB text as meteors start honing in on Roses location. Dave gets straight to business, throwing Roses bed into the fire to make space for the lathe.

I have to laugh, how does it feel Rose?

Dave makes the questionable choice to put the Cruxtruder in the astronomy tower, forcing Rose to go up there. We get a side by side of the Cruxtruder and the lily which is on its own platform counting down from 4 minutes and 26 seconds. In another questionable moment, Dave sets the Alchemieiter on the roof. At least he adds a door and stairs to make quick access.

Dave then grabs Zazzerpan to knock the lid off and tosses him outside, breaking Zazzerpans hand which explains that mystery.

And then lightning fire tornado!?!?!

At 4 minutes 13 seconds (there it is) the cruxtruder starts counting down and once again we get a side by side with the lily to find Jade once again asleep. The lightning fire tornado picks up Zazzerpan as Dave and Rose get the totem created and scanned. Rose then throws Jaspers into the sprite for its first prototyping

The music slows down as we see the Alchemeiter finish creating the crux item, a bottle from a shelf of others. As the rain carries on, Zazzerpans hand flies through the sky as Rose notices through a puddle reflection. Notes played at this point are emphasized through rain droplets hitting the puddle but awash in the fires glow creating some really pretty ripples.

Dave goes to grab the Eldritch Princess as Zazzerpans hand knocks into the bottle and launches it into the river. The music starts building up again as we cut to Nanna using her lazer eyes to copy the note from the original Sassacres into Johns abridged copy.

Suddenly we see Dave being attacked by an insane murder of crows flying into his bedroom. I knew his dumb fix wouldnt work but it also slipped my notice that the window was just wide open this entire time. I mean yeah its hot outside but how did I miss that!! In any case, circumstances right now arent favorable to these kids and entering the game.

Rose seems to have hatched a plan as two more fire tornados appear. Once again the music calms as the piano takes stage and Rose runs off the roof to jump towards the waterfall.

At the same time Nanna releases Sassacres book off the cliff, fading into Roses shilouhette. As Rose reaches the bottle, Sassacres breaks through the clouds giving us our first glimps at the planet below.

Everything is navy blue with some brighter blue glowing bits throughout while a river flows through into the distance.

At the last moment, a tentacle reaches for Rose stopping her from falling into the waters below.

The second protyping is successful.

The music picks up again with a steady beat as the cruxtruder and lily show 20 seconds left. The lily starts blooming open and the small white spirograph appears from inside. Quick cuts between the lily, Jade, the meteor, Dave, the sprite, Rose all add to the tension as we reach 10 seconds.

Here we cut to the past where WV shot out of the crater and we see the original shape of the base, a bottle buried under the sand.

Three seconds to impact Rose breaks the bottle and the flash continues on. The spirograph deposits Daves copies of the game and disappears. How?? is a great question I have no answers for right now.

We switch to John who is making his ascent up the building, absolutely demolishing the imps in his path and utilizing the items he created. On the way he gets personal with an imp wearing his dads hat, using fists rather than the hammer. His final swing launches the imps off the roof and himself into the gate sending him who knows where.

We zoom out, first seeing Johns house, then the top of the planet where we can now see further below to the blue glow.

And finally the planet as a whole

End of Act Three.

This last bit is just what I wrote rapid fire on my first watch of the animation.

Homestuck pages 35-83

These are going to get a lot longer now that we are out of the intro because I’ll probably have more to say about things!

This time I sorta just took a screenshot every time I had something to add (stupid jokes)

Noticing that the captchalogue systems are getting a lot of use, it’s kind of a shame it doesn’t get mentioned too much later

John you little prankster!

WOW! I did not realise there were so many choices of strife specibi! So many choices of violence..

I blame video games.

And it was never relevant again

Nowadays sburb would end up on one of those “WOKE NO NOT PLAY” lists

Also it’s so easy to forget that so many people had their hands on sburb!! Literally anybody could have had a fucking insane session

(RIP pissman)

aww it’s so sweet that dadbert just did all that because he thought john liked it

NEVER SAY THAT AGAIN!! Harlequins are elegant and nice

You killed your grandma! Damn John can you do anything right??

I also wonder how much of Homestuck hussie originally had planned at this point, like did they know that nanna would be raised by the evil betty Crocker alien queen of alternia yet?

Idk probably

(I also thought calling your nan “nanna” was a British thing before reading Homestuck)

THATS A BIG DESK

ITS ROSE!!

When I first got into homestuck I really liked rose. I still really like rose

what an excellent prank! This will have absolutely no repercussions when you play that game you’re friends are talking about u_u

be careful i hear these turn you into a girl!

one of my favourite parts of the first acts is the kids and their instruments, it’s a shame the soundpage is broke though..

small

Just reminded me that most of Homestuck takes place in a day :U

Final thoughts:

God I love this comic!

It’s easy to forget how sorta calm it starts out as right before getting into the game, with Johns only issues being he has to skulk around the house avoiding his baking crazy dad and looking for a copy of sburb

The first act might be my favoured e part from the first half of homestuck

Next time I read I’m going to do less screenshots of random parts and mostly talk about more important things that happen

It's Pride Month so I'd expect June to show up accordingly. If not, it's something about Jake, considering the last page that got released a month ago:

HEY, CREATIVE UNION, WHERE IN MOTHER MARY'S NAME IS MY FREAKIN' SOUNDPAGE?!

If June comes up, I swear to god...

Does anyone else feel like todays soundpage felt a lot like a Hiveswap cutscene? In that it was a short bite of stuff that went in the middle of the upd8 rather than capping it off.

I was hoping for the classic bombastic stuff for the first real one, but I'm not going to complain if we get more of these fun little ones.

"Hey what was that soundpage in Homestuck that featured Carne Vale?"

The well informed gif:

[nolonger100daysoftavvyfanart]

Remembered my augural jpeg from when I first got up to date, seeing what’s been crossed off:

- Paradox Space 2 includes postcanon: the bonus comics count. It’s the same concept. It counts, I swear!

- horrorstuck equivalent: Jake got shot(ish), Jade got shot, Rose is getting shot and Callie’s going to die. Clearing away some of the cast to free up the narrative bandwidth. This is exactly what I meant.

- Hiveswap motifs in an [S] flash: Doc Scratch’s chapter’s theme is very similar to Worst End Theme.

- Art style darkens after the point: it’s all red and muted hues now, the blue sky problem has been solved.

- [S] flash no longer actually flash player: renpy soundpage.

#wait so is it just like. a normal length

homestuck is 8000 pages long and has a lot of words but it helps to envision it in the way homestuck itself now does - there's a lot of arbitrary divisions, but the one that i find the most useful is the rafe.name breakdown of homestuck into "parts" since it's the one that's the most cohesive and useful for talking about homestucks goals and ideas

under this lense there are four "parts" of homestuck, and each one is about 2000 pages. (about the length of problem sleuth, which you should also read!) each part then deals with a different story arc, not unlike a normal serialized story. (think one piece arcs or seasons of a long-running show or what have you)

these parts roughly correlate to homestuck acts 1-4, homestuck act 5, homestuck act 6, and homestuck act 6 act 6, and each part demarcates a distinct difference from the part before it.

and yes, homestuck is 8000 pages long, but unless youre on a very dense, climactic soundpage, not many of those pages are difficult reads - theyre comics pages, not book pages, even as the amount of words on each only ever balloons up

I think we should work on demystifying homestuck.

-It's not unapproachably long. If you can spend a month reading/watching whatever else, you can also spend a month reading homestuck without difficulty.

-If you pay attention you can understand it just fine. There's a lot of moving parts, but it's like a clockwork: if you don't get something despite paying attention, it will most likely fall into place later.

-There's filters for the desktop app in case you don't wanna see the era-typical edgelord humor of the first half, but honestly sometimes it adds to it. (The Future!ArachnidsGrip bit is good. Sorry.)

-It is flawed!!! That's true!! But this website is constantly on about how no media is irredeemable and how you should read things that make you uncomfortable and analyse why that is and still recognise the value in it.

-kill the part of you that cringes 👍
