Let me tell you about Homestuck!

Homestuck is "a tale about a boy and his friends and a game they play together." But it is truly a story of a webcomic's ascension into anime. Homestuck is the fourth story of MS Paint Adventures, and by far the largest one yet, with 8,150 pages (out of 10,028 MSPA pages). It started on the 13th of April 2009 (4/13/09), 413 becoming a recurring number in-universe. The story contains foul language, violence, gore, and other adult themes. The comic ended on April 13, 2016, 7 years after the stable release was first published. Homestuck's basic premise was inspired by games like The Sims, Spore, and EarthBound. Unlike previous Adventures, Homestuck is no longer primarily driven by reader submitted commands, Andrew having taken full control of the story during Act 4. However, he admits to still drawing inspiration from the speculation and fanart of his fanbase.The Homestuck Beta, that was started on April 10, three days prior to the now official release, was Andrew's original attempt to start the comic, which he planned to make entirely in Flash, and drop the MS Paint-style art. However, when the Homestuck Stable Release came, it was revealed that it would continue its art style and use of animated GIFs instead. It was revealed a few days later in Andrew's blog that this was not planned, but rather, it was because doing a whole series with Flash was too difficult and time consuming for him. Although most of the adventure is still created with animated gifs, there are still occasional Flash updates which take the form of movies or even interactive minigames, and include music.The game of Homestuck is shown to have two discs. The first disc lasts until the END OF YEAR TWO. The second disc, resembling a record, was supposed to last until the end of the adventure, though it was later shownSburb Logo to only last through Act 6 Intermission 5. The second disc was scratchedSburb Logo by Terezi when she attempts to play it on a record player, causing the game to critically malfunction at an inopportune time. It had to be taken to a scratch doctor in order to be repaired. Around April 16, 2013, Andrew added these discs to the Homestuck Adventure Map, as well as new sections known as "Parts". These span roughly equal portions of Homestuck, unlike the wildly varying page lengths of its Acts. As of July 28, 2015, there are 3 Parts of Homestuck.
