ENGA is an ongoing series that explores participatory manga in which players can perform the roles of characters within a manga. In ENGA, players’ spoken lines appear directly in speech bubbles, while responses generated by AI merge with hand-drawn artwork by manga artists, allowing the narrative to evolve differently with every playthrough. Led by game designer Tomo Kihara, the project collaborates with manga artists such as Nagara Arata to expand the possibilities of generative story experiences.
Polygoose Studio was responsible for developing the game’s client application for ENGA Vol.1: The Last Parachute.
*All artwork in ENGA Vol.1 is hand-drawn by manga artist Nagara Arata. No image-generation AI is used.
