One-liner

Eastbridge Games is an independent studio building strategy and tactics games in the Animus universe — three titles, one canon, mech-scale to empire-scale.

Short description — ~60 words

Eastbridge Games is a solo indie studio making strategy and tactics games. Its slate is three Animus titles: Animus: Convergence, a 4X space strategy planned for Q4 2026; Animus: Frontier, a tactical mech roguelike deckbuilder (Q2 2027); and Animus: Horizons, turn-based tactics (planned Q4 2027). It has also re-released Knights vs Aliens, the founder's 2009 classic — free on Steam since July 16, 2026.

Long description — ~150 words

Eastbridge Games is an independent studio founded in April 2026 to make small, carefully crafted strategy and tactics games. We believe in legible systems — rules you can read at a glance, numbers that don't hide behind curtains, and consequences that stick.

First of the slate is Animus: Convergence, a 4X space strategy in the Master of Orion tradition — procedural galaxies, point-buy races, MOO2-style ship design, and the Animus, a harvestable psychic field with consequences. Release is planned for Q4 2026 on Steam.

The Animus sequence continues with Animus: Frontier, a tactical mech roguelike deckbuilder — pilot-owned cards, telegraphed enemy intent, squad energy, per-mech heat — planned for Q2 2027, and Animus: Horizons, turn-based ground tactics in the same canon (planned Q4 2027).

Separately, the studio re-released Knights vs Aliens on July 16, 2026 — a real-time tower-conquest game originally shipped to iPad in 2009 under the founder's previous studio, Prophetic Sky. It's free on Steam: a nostalgic detour, not a commercial debut.
