Character Creator - Parts Selector

Character Creator - Parts Selector

Hey, Jeff here! I want to take a moment to chat with you awesome VIPs who took the time to support this project (Thank you SO MUCH! 💖). You’ve been here since the beginning, and I can’t wait to share exactly what I’ve been brewing behind the scenes with the help of Nat and her incredible art. This is a deep dive into something really exciting—the Mix Monsters Character Creator Part Selector!



Behind the Scenes: The Character Creator Part Selector

One of the coolest things we’ve been refining is the Character Creator’s Part Selector—a tool that makes customization fun, intuitive, and ridiculously satisfying. This isn’t just a simple feature; it’s the backbone of how you and your child will create not only the ultimate Mix Monster but also their very own avatar—turning them into the star of our custom books, products, and even our planned animated series. Since this is still a private demo, only VIPs like you get an inside look at what’s coming.

A Seamless, Intuitive Selection Process

The part selector is built to make designing your Mix Monster an effortless experience. As seen in the video, every part of the monster—head, eyes, mouth, arms, and accessories—can be swapped with just a click or tap. But here’s the real magic: each change updates in real-time, making the creative process feel smooth and organic. It’s a system designed for parents and kids to use together, sparking creativity and fun collaboration without frustration.

A Deeply Customizable Experience

Customization is at the heart of Mix Monsters, and the part selector ensures no two monsters will ever be the same. We’ve packed in an insane variety of shapes, colors, and patterns, giving you and your little one endless ways to mix, match, and personalize. Beyond just looks, each choice helps build a character with a distinct personality—whether that’s a goofy, lovable sidekick or a wild, wacky creature that’s totally unique to your family.

Why This Matters: A Shared Creative Adventure

This isn’t just a character creator; it’s a shared experience meant for families. We built it so parents and kids can sit down, brainstorm, laugh, and bring their imagination to life together. It’s designed to be intuitive, engaging, and just plain fun—no complicated menus or frustrating controls. And the best part? Once your monster is complete, it becomes part of a bigger world—one that spans custom books, games, and an upcoming animated series.

This is just the beginning of what we’re building, and your early support fuels the dream. Your feedback, excitement, and involvement shape what comes next, and I couldn’t be more grateful to have you along for the ride. Keep an eye out for more updates—we’re just getting started!
