I’d mentioned that the first major It’s Walky! storyline borrowed loosely from the first Walkerton computer game, and so here we see the second major storyline borrows from the second Walkerton computer game, “Aliens Stole My Nachitos!” We do not get a retelling of the third game, which involved time travel while also mostly lampooning Independence Day.
Walky and his creepy prehensile legs
Is he carrying the three bags of chips he intends to buy in the back pocket of his pants? If they even fit, they’d get all broken and butt-ish.
Oh no. He’s already bought those.
Time travel AND Independence Day? That sounds awesome.
I demand a HD remake that will play on Windows 9 OS and/or some sort of Linux thingie stuff!
Benjamin Franklin would found SEMME. Benedict Arnold would be an Alien spy. The American Revolution hits its turning point when French ninjas sabotage Redcoat operations.
Thomas Jefferson kicks a Redcoat scout unconscious and mumbles “Welcome from ‘Murica” while dragging him off to interrogation. The most decisive victory happens when George Washington hops into a tiny rowboat, hauls it all the way across the Atlantic Ocean in under a week by sheer force of manliness, and catastrophically slams it into the British harbor while screaming “HULLO, BOYS! I’M BAAAAACK!”
Ubisoft, get on this ASAP.
Why was that never adapted? That sounds amazing.
It is a strange and unusual need, but he is strange and unusual, so I guess it all fits.
Is there like a Nachito rehab or something for Walky?
Uh excuse me Mr. Willis, I think you’ll find that “Aliens Stole my Doritos” was in fact the first game, while the second was “Aliens Take Over SEMY”. *adjusts glasses, crosses arms*
oh ho ho
Is CyRaptor earning nerd cred here? Is “Aliens Take Over SEMME” the second game? Did you not include it because it was a minor game or something? Am I overthinking this?
The original trilogy of Walkerton platform games was “Aliens Took My Doritos”, “Aliens Take over SEMY”, and “Immaturity Day”. And then I swear there was an unfinished demo for a fourth called “Men in Black Shoes”, although I can’t find any evidence on the Internet of that one ever having existed. And then there was the rail-shooter spinoff called “SEMY Automatics”.
If I’m not mistaken (and I very well might be since it’s probably been over a decade since I played any of the KNP games), I think “Aliens Invade the Bermuda Triangle” was the faux DOS-era game-in-a-game within Immaturity Day.
Yeah, I’ve been following David’s work a long-ass time.
OK, so Willis basically said there was one before “Aliens” but there wasn’t…
Maybe he made one but he never put it on the market?
*shrugs* It seems weird for the creator of a video game series to make a mistake about that kind of thing, unless he was really out of it at the time.
Also holy crap! I’m Dina on this one! Now I want to quit commenting on DoA just so I can have the Dina avatar instead of the… Mary… avatar.
I think the funniest part of this strip is someone calling Walky “sir”.
Massive break from reality, right? Just think about it, a black kid in a hoodie manhandling a shopkeeper? I sincerely hope there is no white cop/gun-toting vigilante around or it wouldn’t end well.
(Sorta a joke, sorta not. Reality is particularly unfunny these days.)
I dunno, I’d say reality’s a lot funnier than it used to be. Internet culture is way better than the bubonic plague.

How many Walkerton games were there, and are they available for download somewhere?
There were four, and I don’t know.
Okay, thanks. I will search the depths of the internet for them, as soon as I finish learning all the secrets of Ultra Car: Obsticon Onslaught. Namely what the max score and life count is.
For some reason (I’m going with crossed wires on this one) I’m hearing Walkerton’s lines in Teen Titans GO-era Robin’s voice. It… it actually works pretty well, all things considered.
I get what you’re saying, and don’t disagree, but holy shit do I hate the characterization of Robin on that show. The only way I can halfway stomach it is by pretending he’s the Jason Todd Robin, since pre-death Jason was a fucking dumbass anyway.
