#HIVESWAP CHARACTERS SERIES#

Many interactions have achievements associated with them, and it could easily take a few playthroughs to discover all of them. There’s lots of funny dialogue written for every possible interaction, especially when you do something you aren’t supposed to. Fortunately, the cursor changes whenever you mouse over something important, so pixel hunting isn’t too much of a chore. The environments are all incredibly detailed and fun to explore. Part of the fun is exploring the house and examining things, kinda like Gone Home. Probably best not to think about how messed up that last one is. I saw a Teddy Ruxpin, My Pet Monster, Street Sharks, and even a plot-related Puppy Surprise in different rooms. Along the way, she explores her thoroughly ’90s house, and there are plenty of nostalgia triggers scattered about since her authority figures aren’t real big on making the kids put their toys away. Joey eventually makes her way to the house’s attic, and that’s when the real story begins. This peace is shattered when a gaggle of eyeless black monsters attack, and the siblings are separated as Jude scrambles to his treehouse and Joey is chased into her house by a snakelike monster with way too many legs. The gorgeous opening cutscene introduces us to Joey Claire and her brother Jude as they enjoy a peaceful autumn day in their backyard. Hiveswap takes the form of a humorous point-and-click adventure game, similar to old LucasArts adventures or early Telltale titles like the Sam and Max series. It’s been a long time coming, but Hiveswap: Act 1 has finally released.

The most recent and most popular comic series is Homestuck, which followed the adventures of several kids and literal internet trolls patterned after Howie Mandel’s character in Little Monsters.īack in 2012, midway through Homestuck‘s run, Hussie launched a Kickstarter for a game based on the settings and characters of the comic. The comic is drawn and animated by Andrew Hussie, and has explored several different themes and genres over the years. I used to read a lot of webcomics, and one of my favorites was MS Paint Adventures, particularly the Problem Sleuth series.
