You play as Joey Claire, an average 14-year-old whose home suddenly gets invaded by monsters. I’m here to tell you why that’s a good thing. They lie, they deceive, and they go out of their way to hurt others. Not terrible as in badly written, but terrible as in none of them are good people. However, much like its divisive source material, Hiveswap’s most compelling aspect is its large cast of unusual characters and how all of them all terrible. The game is a pleasant experience from start to finish with gorgeous visuals, a fun, catchy soundtrack, and genre-typical puzzles that really get you thinking. So far only two ‘Acts’ of the game have been released, but it’s already looking promising. This is why I found Hiveswap (2020) to be particularly interesting.ĭeveloped by WhatPumpkin games, founded by Homestuck creator Andrew Hussie, Hiveswap is a point-and-click adventure set in the same universe as the aforementioned, equally loved and detested webcomic. Archetypes like these are important as they help players not only get an idea of where the story is going, but also develop those precious player-character bonds. Like most things, these casts usually fit into a set of archetypes: the optimistic protagonist, the nerd, the morally ambivalent antihero and, of course, the villain. We grow attached to them, see ourselves in them, and may even aspire to be like them. If video games were a metaphorical cake, the characters would be the cherries on top.
