Crash-landing on Alternia leaves you desperate for friendships amid harsh conditions. Two trolls approach as you navigate this alien world filled with random accidents and chance encounters. Hiveswap Friendsim Volume Thirteen delivers a quick visual novel adventure where you befriend strangers to survive.
This loosely canonical episodic entry, set during Hiveswap: Act 1, follows your efforts on Alternia's surface. Written by Homestuck creator Andrew Hussie, it offers a darker take on the landscape through casual simulation and RPG choices. Homestuck and Hiveswap fans find a perfect fit in its friendship-driven survival loop on PC.
Are you aware that most accidents happen in the home? It’s true. You’re just minding your own business, sitting in your living room, and BAM. A large chunk of ceiling falls on your head or a harpoon flies in through an open window. Provided you live near a lot of whale hunting. The point is, it kills you. You’re dead. Randomness abounds. The paths of fate intertwine.
Accidents happen. Perhaps the accidental crash landing of a spacecraft on an alien planet crawling with FRIENDSHIP opportunities. Perhaps a knife-related accident that ended with a stranger bleeding to death on the floor. Or perhaps the happy accident of coincidence that has resulted with you, here, about to indulge in Friendsim Volume 13, the luckiest volume of all.
