Games where you build stuff fire a broad-spectrum ray at the Krahulik House, with a wavelength proper to each member of that storied clan. Gabe wants to “erect” huge buildings but not decorate them, in the same way he likes to draw comic strips but not write them. Kara – who once wore the handles “Orbital Strike” and “Yuna” – doesn’t have a lot of affection for building big structures but has an infinite affection for greebling the interiors with immaculate decor. The boys want to kill shit and then they need a place to keep all the shit they found on the bodies, some of which are just parts of the bodies. I like… well, that’s Monday’s strip.
He has shots like this in all the electronic places he’s lived:

His plump larva – also named Gabriel, except actually named that – occasionally feels tenderly about the old times, and I can imagine why. Those were pretty fuckin’ cool times. He came up in a pretty sick era, where you could grab a copy of Minecraft for about ten bucks and go hog-ass wild with your dad; then the neighborhood became digital. Even the urban legends went online: you could worry about a ghost called Herobrine.
I’m always a little surprised at what ended up hitting for them, where the nostalgia took root. In this house, Double Fine Happy Action Theater – and then Kinect Party – was a pretty foundational title. I’m sure this makes them outliers on every statistical diagram, but for some reason the 360 is still under the TV in the living room and the youngest put her friends on to it. Indeed, Ronia and her friends had a “retro gaming party” a couple weeks ago.
They played the Wii.
