#puzzlestuck posting

been playing puzzlestuck again from scratch while procrastinating on doing my homework

Okay, so I'm finally going to get this reread underway, but first I wanted to write down a comprehensive list of all the mods I have installed with The Unofficial Homestuck Collection :]

The Homestuck Slur Replacement Project : replaces all uses of the R-slur and all negative uses of the word autism (which is all of them, in this comic's case). I think there's some other changes, but they aren't noted anywhere in the 'about' section.

Magic MacGuffins: replaces the term 'juju' with the term 'magic macguffin'. This idea has roots in the podcast I shared above.

New Alternian Alphabet: replaces the Daedric alphabet with the alphabet used in Hiveswap and other official published media.

Morse Translator: replaces all Morse code with readable English.

Damara: translates Damara's Japanese to readable English, in-game.

Easter Eggs: notifies you when a Flash page contains an easter egg.

Homestuck Commentary: adds author commentary from the book releases, as well as some optional fan commentary.

Rex Duodecim Angelus: adds a link to the bottom of the home page where you can watch the fan-made animation Rex Duodecim Angelus. You have the option to include it in the comic as well.

Puzzlestuck: adds a button to the link of the home page where you can play the fan-made game Puzzlestuck.

bcplayer: adds a music player that shuffles music from the bandcamp page. This mod is reason enough to download the app in the first place.

Homestuck Epilogues & Homestuck^2: adds that post-canon content to the app.

June’s Homestuck Reread Liveblog

I'm once again sad in a way that only consuming my favorite childhood media will fix. Homestuck (the emotion) is so vast I think I might be able to soft reset my mind or hopefully even die.

I’ve put together some goals for this reread and liveblog:

To put my thoughts from this reread in the same place as every thought I can remember from previous reads- a meeting of a multitude of selves, all dedicated only to the Sisyphean task of reading Homestuck

To reintroduce myself to the active side of the Homestuck fandom and get involved with fanart, theorycrafting, discourse if I’m feeling like a bitch, etc.

To make a landing page for all of the Homestuck fanworks and Homestuck-adjacent media that is meaningful to me. After I finish HS proper (or maybe after PS, who knows the order I’ll read these things) I’ll probably make a masterpost with a bunch of links to post-canon content and general things I might like to read next.

Like every other reread liveblog, I will be using The Unofficial Homestuck Collection. This is a far better alternative to homestuck dot com for a lot of reasons, but I’m going as far as to say you need this app to properly read the comic since this actually preserves the Flash animations and games. Plus, it has a lot of the old MSPAforums and Formspring posts and stuff archived, which is definitely something I wanted to explore more during this read.

Also there are accessibility mods and general improvement tweaks available! I have ones that automatically translate morse code and alert you if there’s an easter egg on the page. There’s a ton of features created to fine tune you’re reading experience, I literally cannot recommend the collection enough.

I also want to recommend Homestuck Made This World, a liveread podcast from the Ranged Touch network. One of the hosts has been a longtime MSPA fan, while the other is a brand new reader, so you get to hear a fresh perspective as well as the hindsight of an old Homestuck.

Most of the Ranged Touch stuff is exactly my shit, but I want to emphasize this podcast because I’m going to be listening along as I reread the comic. Like everything else I reference, I’ll be citing them whenever I bring something up from their show.

All of my posts will be tagged under #JHSRRLB as well as by act (#A2, #I, #A6A6I1, etc.) and I'll try to otherwise tag as comprehensively I can including external references, characters, subjects, ships, and fucking whatever else there is to be tagged.

If you're still reading this, check out the rest of the junedavekat fat blunt coalition- my dave boyfriend is planning a reread of Homestuck as well, and its my karkat boyfriend's birthday :B

I FUCKING DID IT

A Homestuck.info Catch-Up!

  Over the past few months I’ve been directing my attention towards the Homestuck.info twitter account. Now that I have a bit more free time, I’m going to go back to mirroring content onto Tumblr! This post is meant to provide some catch-up to my antics over there, things have changed quite a bit!  A bit over a month ago the Homestuck.info brand was changed. Not just a facelift in avatars and color schemes, but a shift in content production: from a stream of disconnected tweets to a number of more focused, long-term projects. I still post Homestuck news as it breaks, but WhatPumpkin PR has accelerated far beyond the need for a fan-based soley-news platform. Here’s a look at a few things we’ve had in devolopment:

Streaming: We’ve been streaming Pesterquest volumes as they are released, and are planning to begin some playthroughs of Homestuck fangames such as Sburbcraft, Puzzlestuck, Felt Manor, and more!  Streams are all mirrored on our Youtube channel. 

Podcasting: Show Pesterquest has begun! A general Homestuck podcast where I talk about whatever is on my mind at the moment. Episode 1  is about Homestuck.info, trans canon and gender, and shillworthy works. Episodes are currently sporadic, with a solid schedule starting sometime in Early 2020, and it’s available on Spotify!

Game Dev: Sburb Online is a recreation of the Homestuck walkaround flash format, in the HTML5 engine Phaser 3! This means it works on mobile devices! And it has multiplayer! While the core control, character, and chat features are fully working, further development has been a bit on hold while I’m in the process of moving across the country. It’s not dead though! And its also available on Itch.io through our non-Homestuck sister company Earth64!

Sponsus: I have no plans whatsoever to lock Homestuck content behind a paywall or monetize any of the News side of things. That said, I am a Freelance 3D Artist and run a Sponsus feed (an alternative to Patreon) where I release all the work and source files for my art, such as blender and photoshop files. Sponsors also get special roles on my Discord and shout-outs in our audio and video content!

Discord: We have a Discord now! It includes not only a place to chat about Homestuck, but additional channels for all my personal projects! And pings when I go live on Twitch! Truly the best way to stay in the know about the things I do if thats something you fancy.

Invite: http://discord.gg/EBDMjZr

 Thanks for your time! I will continue posting news updates here and on Twitter, as well as adding to the Homestuck.info website, and you can look forward to continued development in our games, streams, videos, and podcast as we head into 2020!

hello, I really liked playing Puzzlestuck and wanted to replay it but since Adobe Flash shut down it's not possible anymore, is there a way you can release it as a downloadable game or something similar? I don't know anything about programing really and was just wondering if there was a way we could play it again... thank you for your time and inredible game

I’m super sad about this and it’s definitely on my mind. I have a few different ideas of how to keep the game playable I want to explore but work has eaten up all my spare time for a while now so I haven’t had too much of a chance to dig in.

I’ll definitely post if I figure something out and am happy to hear suggestions as well!

our-happygirl500-fan replied to your post: so i might have like, hyperfocused on that...

Puzzlestuck is so good isn’t it, I beat it a while ago but afterwards my finger hurt from all the clicking and dragging also these song are super good

it really is like i can’t describe now tailor made to keep my focus it is. it’s a simple bejeweled like game with a million progress bars and leveling and characters and it’s homestuck like holy fuck the only reason i’m not upset i haven’t played it already is because i get to enjoy it now. also ty i really like those songs too

Honestly I’m so glad there was a Puzzlestuck post on my dash in like. March.

I almost forgot how much I loved Puzzlestuck. Almost.

[oso-berry]

I BEAT PUZZLESTUCK HELL YEAH!!!!

[akihsulkaz]

I just defeated Puzzlestuck! I was late with all the buzz about this game, but I found it and played it and finished it! This game is truly fun and addicting! I plan on doing some guides or tips on this game, it depends. But the clock still ticks since school's about to start, soooo don't expect that. I might submit some to @puzzlestucktricks, though I already submitted a bit. So I'll try play a bit more to see things haha

[mantis--hymn]
