Introduction

How do I even begin to explain this project? It's part scifi-fantasy, part fanfiction, a Homestuck sequel and something I built with the support of a friend. It's also part of an epic cross-platform, cross-medium transmedia project which will include a webcomic at some point in the future. 

It spans an exercise in writing three different novel-length books entirely from different character perspectives, and a forth being worked on as of the time of this reading. Three Lore documents currently exist. And over twenty other stories also form part of its canon. It started back in 2016 but was on hiatus while I was working on some videogames for years, which are available but on hiatus now as well. I haven't started illustrating the webcomic yet, mainly because I would like to get through the hefty legwork and figure out the best way to do so. 

It's an absolutely gargantuan project that is still growing to this day. And I haven't even touched on how it's connected to an existing webcomic of popular fame and this projects complicated relationship to fanfiction. It's also very, very weird. Explaining what the actual story of Harvest Reports is about in a single summary is next to impossible. The most I can say is that it's a surrealist dystopian scifi-fantasy epic in the vein of with the narrative scope of, say, The Silmarillion, Type/Moon or Bethesda games. It's based in a shared-universe, scifi-fantasy setting in which all sorts of weird shit happens. It's definitely meant to be read by just anybody, the average reader might feel estranged, but if you're in the niche that enjoys high-concept worldbuilding and dense prose narratives, this is available for you. Stories are connected through shared elements. Some events might be referenced or mentioned in passing, characters from one story might be the main characters in another, the setting might be described in different ways from one story to the next. It's a little bit like going into a wiki and reading different articles from random pages in one sitting and seeing how they're connected, only you're seeing it all in the most dramatic form imaginable. 

And again, it's weird.
