Hiveswap Friendsim Dub
Project Overview
You just crash-landed on Alternia, and you’re DESPERATE for friendship! Anyone will do...wait, who are those two trolls approaching you?
The Hiveswap Friendsim is a quick, loosely-canonical visual novel adventure following the efforts of the unnamed protagonist (that’s you!) to survive and maybe even thrive on the harsh surface of ALTERNIA. Set in the time of Hiveswap: Act 1, this episodic visual novel’s opening volume, written by Homestuck creator Andrew Hussie, is sure to satisfy Homestuckand Hiveswap fans who are eager for a darker stroll across the Alternian landscape.
Future episodes will arrive regularly as DLC.
From What Pumpkin Games, Inc., we have been provided with a "friendship simulator" stuck in the universe of Hiveswap/Homestuck! Each release of content follows the stories of the protagonist, trying to befriend your choice of one troll at a time, from a selection of two. So far there are 4 releases of DLC. As the release of content continues, so will this voice acting project! There is no real deadline, but I would like to get started as soon as I can.
I'm looking to release a fandub of each ending for each troll onto my YouTube channel.
Please keep in mind that this game contains swearing and violence.
Also note that each main character has a word count of at least 1000.
Feel free to incorporate the trolls' typing quirks into your voice acting, but it is not a necessity.
Requirements:
-A decent microphone with good quality (A Blue Yeti or better, preferably)
-A Discord account
-Some knowledge of Hiveswap/Homestuck (recommended)
If you have any questions, please feel free to either message me or add a comment onto this project!

This role is pretty self-explanatory. However, please keep in mind there will be many, many lines to record for this part. Please make sure you will have the time and dedication to fulfill it.
Some of the writing is very comedic, so make sure you can portray that accurately as well.
You have just crash landed on a planet called Alternia, and staggered from the smouldering wreckage of your ship.
You are now completely alone in a strange world.
Desperate for information, for provisions, and possibly a bit of medical attention.
But most of all, you are desperate for...
FRIENDSHIP.
"A high-ranking cerulean-blood, Ardata maintains a significant following on social media by playing up her sinister personality, torturing captives in her basement on camera, and utilizing them as slaves with the aid of her mind control abilities."
I'm looking for someone that can portray Ardata's sadistic and sinister tendencies, while also being able to show genuine emotion at times where it is appropriate.
oh. oh my. mmmmhmhm. hmhmhmhmhmhm... hmhmmhmmwahahahahahahaha. oh how funny thiiis iiis. how very droll.
well? iiit looks liiike you're confused. iiisn't iiit obviiious what to do next, under your own voliiitiiion? a good friiiend would know what to do. iiin fact, iii dont thiiink a good friiiend would take nearly as long to deciiide what the riiight thiiing to do next iiis. iiit actually seems to me that a very rude friiiend would hesiiitate for as long as you are hesiiitatiiing.
how lonely iiit iiis to know thiiis iiis all iii can do, untiiil the day iii leave thiiis planet. iii have no materiiial or sensory comforts left for me here. untiiil iii can get on a shiiip and fly away. paiiin iiis my only solace.
A troll that Ardata is keeping prisoner in her basement. She uses mind control on them.
I'm looking for someone that can show a difference in their voice when they're being controlled by Ardata vs. when they are not.
Hel.....p...
Hel...plo!
Helplo. By which I mean, hello, of course. Looks like you're the new friend in progress chosen by the great and beautiful Ardata.
She's my savior, my reason for being. I am nothing without her. I'd hollow myself out and let her make a nest inside of me, if she'd permit it!
(Sobbing noises)
"A low-ranking burgundy-blood , Diemen's hive was destroyed by drones in a routine neighborhood culling prior to the events of Hiveswap Friendsim, an event that also killed his Lusus. Diemen was subsequently made homeless, and forced to live on the streets scrounging for food; particularly, Oblong Meat Products, a Troll hotdog analog."
I'm looking for someone with a child-like voice. Feel free to include a lisp or something similar.
Diemen's dialogue includes bolded yellow text whenever he refers to hotdogs. He uses analogs such as "Delicacies." For these moments only, I will be editing in a separate voice (one much deeper), for comedic effect. Due to this, there will be some spaces in your lines. Be prepared for this.
(| oof |)
(| hang on sorry. i didnt get a good look at you before i started talking |)
(| i guess youre really weird looking |)(| kind of uncomfortable about this |)
(| you just want a friend and not my [REDACTED] |)
(| sorry i get a little paranoid when i walk around with such [REDACTED] in public |)
(| nobody's ever done so much, or worked so hard, to try to get my hands on another [REDACTED] |)
(| sorry for being emotional, but like, this is new for me? |)
(| i'd be thrilled to call you a friend, man |)
This is a smaller role that will be used whenever Diemen makes any references to hot dogs.
I'm looking for a deep, manly voice. Feel free to be as dramatic as you want.
Oblong Meat Products
Sweet Meat
Savory Bunned Delights
"Amisia is an indigo-blood who bears the Sagira sign. This makes her a highblood with a great deal of power, despite her youth. Amisia seems to live a relatively carefree life indulging her ambitions to become a skilled painter, despite her carefully concealed lack of aptitude. Although not overtly cruel or vindictive, Amisia shows very little regard for others, casually harvesting their blood to use as paints in her hobby."
I'm looking for someone that can portray both her kindness, and the pretentious/macabre nature of some of her actions. A child-like voice seems suiting, perhaps a bit nasally as well.
oh. oh my gosh. youu are so...
cuute!
i've never seen anything like youu
it's giving me all sorts of new ideas!
ahahaha i'm glad youu feel that way
youu're obviouusly really strange and uunder-socialized
buut youu don't seem to be a complete cuultuural idiot
pluus i think its really endearing how helpless and truusting you are
i even make all my own paints!
i juust can never do the actuual sitting down and doing art part
"A low ranking gold-blood, Cirava is a popular moisturewave music streamer. They have a fixation on aesthetic, popularity, and callout posts, CIrava also vapes, and owns what appears to be the Alternian equivalent of a bong. Despite their popularity online, they've been staying under the radar ever since ripping out their own eye so that they won't be used as a battery."
I'm looking for someone that can portray Cirava's chill demeanor along with their occasional anger. A chill "dude-bro" voice is along the lines of what I'm imagining, however, Cirava is nonbinary, so anyone can audition.
woah what the fuck lmao
you an alien?
you should really like
not be outside lmao
if were gonna be friends you have GOT to work on your look
your aesthetic is basically hot garbage rn lmao
my followers cant see me hanging out with a fucking rando like this
youve made me look like a fucking idiot
and now theres only one thing to do
i really didnt want it to come to this
but youve left me with no choice
im writing a callout post
"Skylla is a bronze-blood, who owns a ranch in the rural outskirts of town. She keeps Lady, her lusus, as company since visitors are rare. However, she does deal with lusus thieves every once in a while."
I'm looking for someone who can portray Skyllas kindness/strength as well as her sadness. A Western accent would be preferable.
Funnyy yyou should just blunder in here like that.
I was just sayyin' wasn't I, Ladyy?It's been so long since we had anyy sort'a guests who weren't imperial drones or out to rob us.
Tell the rest of 'em whyy yyou don't ever fuck with a rustyy's ranch!
I reallyy was hopin' we could be friends--it's been a reallyy long time since I've seen anyybodyy out here that goes on two legs 'stead of four.
But I just don't think its gonna work out.
...if yyou start walkin' now yyou can probablyy make it to the cityy before sunrise.
"Bronya is a jadeblood living in buildings located in a network of caves (also known as the brooding caverns), tending to the Mother Grub with her fellow jades. Her life seems to be a relatively peaceful one, as she mentions that jades haven't been culled in dozens of sweeps."
I'm looking for someone that can show Bronya's motherly and kind nature, while still being able to show genuine fury.
Oh, hello.
I thought you were one of my girls, but you don't look like a jadeblood. Or anything else, actually. How strange.vV But if you're not completely sure how to do something, it's best to try anyway! Vv
1. Even if you fail, everyone else can still learn from your mistake.
2. Maybe you won't fail. You never know!
I can't believe it. This is the worst disaster we've had down here! And all because I thought I could sit back and let someone else be responsible for once...
If I were a less secure person, I could let this moment plant a seed of self-doubt in my mind about my ability to take care of others and do my job well.
Or I could chalk it up to you being really fucking stupid.
"Tagora is a tealblood who works in a law enforcement job of some kind as a sketchy attorney. He offers his services to the player, charging the player 50+ for an introductory fee, a gimmick that continues throughout the entire route as he keeps charging them an unknown currency (possibly troll caegars) each time he finishes a sentence (usually 10+, but an extra amount is added or subtracted depending on subject). Although he appears to be a slick and confident player, there are moments when he loses his composure."
I'm looking for someone that can show Tagora's persuasive charm along with his occasional anxiety.
Hello. You seem to have fallen victim to a collide-and-scamper with that scuttlebuggy back there.
Have you contacted your personal legislacerator? If not, I'd like to offer my services.
My name is Tagora Gorjek, but please, call me Gor-Gor. I'm here for you. For a nominal fee, of course.
So instead of wasting any more of my time or yours, let's take a shortcut to the same end result, sparing us both the agony of enduring a long court battle in the proximity of one another.
Here's your verdict: you're guilty.
With our wits combined, we can tackle bigger and better things than traffic injuries.
I've never actually formed a legitimate partnership of any sort before, but I believe this is how it's done.
What do you say?
A "blue-themed troll," who is Tagora's superior. He hates him, but maintains a civil relationship with him because "There are times when being liked by your betters is helpful."
Wow, Gorjek. What have we here?
What the bulgeboiling fuck?
Oh, right, your booming drone pursuing business. This, uh, "client" you have here looks extra shitty."
Good luck getting anything good for... whatever this mutant is that you scraped up from the gristle grate.
(Stammering noises)
"Vikare is a bronze-blooded troll with dreams of non-interstellar flight, but he keeps these dreams a secret and talks about his "dreams" of spaceflight that he is legally obligated to fulfill. He uses lots of fancy and unfamiliar idioms and metaphors, to the point where not even the player understands a word he's saying. The player still finds his ecstatic nature charming, though, and tries to understand him the best they can."
I'm looking for someone that can portray Vikare's wide range of emotion as well as his quirkiness and use of odd idioms and metaphors. It's stated in the game that his voice "sounds like it belongs in a newsreel about World War II."
~A friend, eh?~
~A bosom companion, a pal-about-town?~
~I've seen nary a Tomman, Dickus, or Harriy round these parts who might fit the bill~
~Oh beans~
~Why I'll be a hornbeast's grubfood!~
~Everything copacetic, new pal?~
~I thought we could be friends, but now I see you're looking for something different~
~My apologies...~
~I think~
~I think it's best if you go elsewhere~
