(I do want to note that I read the free online version of this comic on Tapas).
I absolutely loved this comic! It is essentially a story about family and escaping abuse and what that means and generational trauma (some heavy topics) against the backdrop of competitive gaming and new/rekindled friendships. I think the author handled the difficult relationship between the main character and her caring yet overbearing older brother and what escaping trauma means quite well for such a short and fun story. Though it deals with heavy topics, they are not central and therefore I would say the story itself is not heavy. It is mostly fun and quick to read. Oh, and before I forget - I really love this author's art as well!
