A videogame arc is a bit of a jump from the vaudeville themes generally seen in the comic. I believe at this point that my videogame comic had recently been cancelled - the site that commissioned it went out of business.

Ok, it's fixed now. It turns out that the top and bottom rows were transposed. I'm embarassed to say that it had been like that for ten years before I fixed it.
A bit of a callback to this comic.
