Green lasers fire from the claw-like grasp of the ENO COMMAND SHIP, directly into the massive sphere in the background of the battle. < But the created will always rebel against the creators. >

Page 6 pt. 2, the climax of the battle.

A cabal of Eno units encircle the visage of LORD ENTROPY, a Lovecraftian horror crowned and ringed by circles of power. "Lord Entropy, we need more time. The weapon isn’t ready." "We have given you everything you could ever ask for and you repay me with incompetence." "Our calculations would have been perfect if the Korg didn’t arrive!" < We throttle their advancements, keeping them in the dark. >

An Eno unit deletes another defective unit, by force.

Bowing, the units project subservience. "Our apologies, my lord. Calculations have been adjusted. The sphere will be destroyed in moments." "We know." < But their ignorance leaves them corporeal. Finite. >

One unit inspects the defective unit, as if to ponder the apparent skull. "The weapon is ready. Ascension." < We fan the flames of war to quell their ever growing gluttony. >

Page 6 of ALTERED STARS: Entropy #1, where the Eno's plans come to fruition.

Bathed in red light, the Eno slither aboard, their white cores like skulls of the dead. “Eno infiltrators are on board!”

< Biological. Enlightened. Synthetic. Sentient. >

Violence as the Lanu desperately repel the Eno boarders. < With a swift flick of our wrist they expire like an insignificant flame. >

Page 5 continued as the Eno slither aboard.

Eno fighters race towards the LANU COMMAND SHIP. < By our gentle caress they excel and evolve. >

The Eno fighters pierce the walls of the ship and the bodies of the soldiers inside. “Breach! Breach!”

You've met the Lanu, now see the Eno in action!

My team at work came up with like a millennia of lore and backstory to drive the art in-game today, it's so freaking cool to see it brought to life in a comic.

Also I think the idea of using the comic to drive growth of the community Discord is pretty cool. My friend Jen thought of that!

The captain points, leading a pilot’s empty, clouded gaze to a place off-screen. "Get us through that blockade!" < Built on the backs of civilizations that were chasing their own tepid visions of greatness… >

The LANU COMMAND SHIP breaches the mass of skull ships, racing towards the skeletal ENO COMMAND SHIP. < …with the resources from previous generations they will never know. >

...only to be faced with an impossible choice. Page 4 (pt. 2).

Inside the Lanu Command ship: A man in patterned warrior regalia with a strong beard points towards a hologram of a decorated sphere. "Strike leader, focus all squadrons on that bot canon!" "We’re trying Captain! We can’t break through the swarm!" A voice, superimposed, < All things are of our design. >

Spaceships fire lasers over a background of haunting, skeletal ships crackling with energy. "If we don’t fold soon this whole sector will be a graveyard." < We have spent eternity building our vast network. >

Inside the Lanu Command ship, a set of three people garbed in ornamental clothing stand in a hologram, speaking towards the captain. "Activate that sphere and get out of there, Captain! If he learns what we are trying to do…" < Engines built to stay the execution of reality itself. >

The captain responds, "I fear he already has, councilor. There’s no reason for the Beja-Rahn and the Eno to be here. Now."

Page 4 (pt. 1) reveals the Lanu High Command, and their desperate strategy to save the galaxy from an existential threat...

Hey #TeaseYaGame community how do you feel about comics as teasers?

Wanna see the next pages first? We're (not so secretly) posting them secretly on our Discord before anywhere else!

A view of several sci-fi characters including a futuristic warrior in rows, several creepy masks, a saurian-like alien roaring, and Cloaked Space Dad In A Halo with ships in the background of text that reads "ALTERED STARS: ENTROPY | SAWYER ATKINS".

Comic panels featuring a war in space, beautifully illustrated Ben and Brian man you're killing it with these colors. The text reads "Created. Creator." "Oppressed. Oppressor." "Slave. Master." "We control every aspect of life itself." "We control others in the names of gods, territory, resources, lovers, and heritage." "We control armies, nations, planets, solar systems, and galaxies." "We are..." "...Dominion."

We're a bunch of indie comic nerds, so what better way to start introducing a new sci-fi universe than making a comic?

Don't let me down bsky indie #comic and #gamedev scene!

The Rubber Duck Penguin Boat from Batman: The Animated Series looking very friendly indeed while it listens to you explain your terrible game code to it.

This is the Video Game Dev Rubber Duck.

Reskeet to help a game developer debug their game code today.

This is so on point!

We invested a ton in our mission builder for exactly this reason.

You can write and ship a new mission with minimal, Age of Empires-like scripting and config, plus tagging. Minutes, not weeks. The biggest barrier now is coming up with something worth the player's time.

The line work is stunning here

Gamers, parents, devs - lend us your ears! We're working quietly behind the scenes on our game

We're curious what you're working on! Tell us about your game - what are you working on?!

#gaming #gamedev #indiegame #gamer

I stumbled on this trailer a month or so ago and the gameplay looks incredible!

Heck yeah! That's gorgeous! And looks fun too

In 2026 we're continuing work on our first game title, and we're getting pumped to share it with you!

What are you working on this year #indiegame #whattoplay #gamenews #gaming

DEVASTATING - I hope some of them played the remaster!

Today my nephew asked about a game he saw in my library. Skyrim.

Hearing the music boot up again I could almost smell the XBox 360 booting up, the tv glowing in the dark, and feel the hours spent wandering.

Yes young dragonborn, I know something about that
