U.Mecha

Interactive Sci-fi Comic Series (2025-2026)

 

When Uma enlisted in the police force, she never expected a wave of monster attacks to take the world by storm.

​

U.mecha is a uniquely interactive comic book, where the readers get to make the choices. For example at the end of Issue 1, our heroine Uma was sucked into a portal. Will she end up on an alien planet, the distant past or the distant future? The readers vote on a link at the end, and the following chapter is written based on that choice, blurring the line between author and audience, game and reality.
