Anyone think there will be any kind of update on 4/13 this year?

Last year we got the prologue of homestuck, a week later followed by the full Epilogues. Course later last year we got the start of Homestuck^2 as well. Do any of you think they might have an update or something to show this year?

Closest idea we have for something like that would be Hiveswap or something, or maybe a specila update to homestuck^2, if we get anything after the LOTS of shit we've been getting lately.

i wouldn't say its exactly riot worthy. Though i REALLY hope its like, act 2 for hiveswap or at least something. Announcement of another friendsims type thing maybe.

A while back it was mentioned that the staff wants to put less emphasis on meme numbers, and 413 has been skipped in the past. I wouldn't get my hopes up, but it's possible we'll get something for 413 and they were only overlooking dates like 612 and 1111.

I desperately hope for the Hiveswap Act 2 release date to be released. But that is a long shot.

I predict that we'll get some kind of special HS^2 update, perhaps with June. And maybe the announcement of yet another visual novel game, though I doubt it'll be with the dancestors because there's already a fan project called Befriendus which fills that niche. Maybe some stand-alone piece of writing set in the Pesterquest timeline?

While true, we did get Homestuck^2 dropped on us for 10/25 (the "meme day" that Cascade came out), so even though they've said they want less emphasis on meme numbers, I think its very possible that we, at least, get a Homestuck^2 update tomorrow. Or possibly more, but I'll take pretty much anything.

I've been trying so hard not to get my hopes up, but seriously I'm hoping for some Hive Swap Act 2. It's a long shot, but it has been about 6 months since the trailer and now that Pesterquest is done, I'm trying to hold onto a bit of hope that today we'll get some Act 2.

[pfeffer-29]

Oh lord it's been six months already.

Yea. Hiveswap seems to be a lot of waiting. They were talking about completing the background art and such and handing it off to the programmers. Considering they started up pesterquest i presume they completed their stuff for hiveswap. Hopefully they are now working on hiveswap act 3 story and art.

It seems like things are going well atm with it all but we will have to see. Something i would hope is going on is them wanting to be ahead on hiveswap act 3 before releasing act 2 so it would shorten the distance between but we will have to see. They are being mum about it more or less.
