Our Expanded Universe


Our world, your NFT characters, and ideas from our community! Our expanded universe is what makes our unique animated series what we call a MetaAnimation.

An Open Expanded Universe

We believe in a new world of animation, one where our community and our studio collaborate and tell stories together, all set in our world!

Our team plans to breaks into small groups once a week, with one acting as showrunner, supported by the rest, all working to bring to life our short "Stories of the City"

This gives our team the ability to grow their skill set that encompasses the entire production process from script to screen, in a fun, bite-sized and mangable short story!


Welcome To Our World!

But our goal is so much more than that, it's a way for us to collaborate with our community! These side stories and shorts are set in our world with a cast of your crazy NFT characters!

Working with you, the community, each showrunner will host a "Storytime Event" with our NFT holders, live on Discord.

There you can offer jokes, ideas, fan art, and more, and our showrunners will handpick the ideas that best suits their vision, and include them in our shorts!

Our team will then be able to spend time working together on cool fan-driven ideas, experimenting with awesome new characters, showing off your NFTs, and collaborating with you, the community!


The Foundation Of Our Vision

This is the foundation for our vision for an open expanded universe which we are calling a MetaAnimation, developed and lovingly crafted between us and you!

We want to grow these shorts into regular short-format content, released first to our community, and then to the world! Shorts are released alongside our PRIME storyline, interweaving with one another, creating new and engaging shared experiences for us all!
