To WP's knowledge every artist whose work was used in the final release of Act 1 was included in the credits. GC and the lead animator on the project specifically requested not to be credited upon release of the animation. As the existence of this animation itself would not be revealed until its release in 2016, this was not publicly announced at the time. WP and GC agreed that this project would have a separate budget from the Hiveswap Kickstarter money, paid for from WP’s regular operating funds. With an assurance that this work could be done in parallel with a flexible timeline and would not impact the development cycle of Hiveswap itself, Hussie and What Pumpkin saw this as a good opportunity to establish a working relationship with this organization prior to the start of development and agreed to contract GC to do animation work for the Act 7 project. WP let GC know about the Act 7 animation plans.

Because there was an understanding that delivering the complete game development documents would take some time, during which it would be difficult for GC to make meaningful progress on the Hiveswap game build, GC inquired about getting involved with other Homestuck-adjacent projects to do immediate work.
