A CONSOLE THAT READS LIKE A COMIC
Relay-9 is a deep-survey crew of six, chasing the gap between a giant's rings. Every watch they print a new issue: contacts logged, plates registered, echoes lost. Benday is the language that page is printed in.
HOW TO READ IT. Panels are held apart by the gutter. Dots carry the tint. Balloons carry the voice. Nothing floats; everything is printed.

FOUR-COLOUR FUNCTION
Tier layout
Build screens as comic tiers — unequal panels paced by width, held apart by one constant gutter. No two rows are the same.
No cardsNo shadow
Ben-Day voice
Dots tint the inks and balloons carry the narration, so the interface speaks in the comic's own language — and recolours on any palette swap.
