Yeah, I dithered, but decided I wanted my Steam achievements so I'd have to wait an hour. Meanwhile, managed to finish chapter 1 of Life Is Strange.

Such graceful, delicate creatures.
I don't usually read game news, so I don't know how accurate Kotaku is about anything, but this review says Hiveswap is good.

I guess we'll know for sure later today.

it's called hiveswap because it's so bad it makes you break out in hives and say "i'd rather watch swap.avi"

There's something really sexy about Scrooge McDuck. I love Uncle Scrooge.

Freak Futanari posted:

also lol at anyone who thinks the other episodes of hiveswap will come out

this episodic structure is just a way for them to shove what little they have out the door, so they can say "eeeeh we TECHNICALLY released a game lol" before cancelling the rest

Streaming wasn't as big as it was when this mishegoss started. Every let's player is going to finish the game and do their own voice acting and it will make a huge splash and money will roll in.

I think that review actually makes me more pessimistic about the game, given this part:

quote:

The way that the fantastical trappings give way to realistic teenage angst reminded me why I liked Homestuck in the first place

edit: Though I guess the fact it was competent enough that someone was able to play it at all is still a good thing.

I'm over in the other thread, but it's beautiful and fun to play for me. I like point-and-click adventure games a lot, though; my other jam right now is Life Is Strange.

they actually released (part of) the game, i honestly didn't believe it would happen

it's not... terrible? i find it hard to believe it'll be popular enough make back the money to fund any further installments though

This game is really funny and has a massive hate-on for Bubsy.

I'm particularly impressed by the fact that you can rub everything on every clickable to get thematically linked pieces of dialogue. That's a lot of work and most of it's really charming and funny too.

Yeah, I didn't realize that at first, which now sort of makes me want to start again to read it all. Sort of.
