I’m taking Thursday off, so no comic on Friday. Enjoy your holiday.

Aww, I wonder which Thanksgiving that was. They all smush together in my memory, but I was…eight? Oh shit, that was the thanksgiving right after my first major seizure.
I didn’t actually take part in that Thanksgiving dinner, I was busy having an allergic reaction to one of my medications. I think I vaguely remember an audio book about a magical teddy bear taking two kids though a magic world for…some reason? It had Christian overtones…and something about a Christmas star? Weird.
The Biggest Game Ever
How did this niche racing game make a gameworld so massive, and why is that a big deal?
Ludonarrative Dissonance
What is this silly word, why did some people get so irritated by it, and why did it fall out of use?
Bowlercoaster
Two minutes of fun at the expense of a badly-run theme park.
Starcraft 2: Rush Analysis
I write a program to simulate different strategies in Starcraft 2, to see how they compare.
Final Fantasy X
A game about the ghost of an underwater football player who travels through time to save the world from a tick that controls kaiju satan. Really.
So, on the plus side, looks like they found the inn. And probably the tavern.
…Teddy Ruxpin?
Man, “taking 10” (and, to a lesser extent, taking 20) really is an incredibly underappreciated game rule.
