thanks for all the love on this video! I’ve added some of your suggestions (like vitiligo, more hair, etc) and posted a new youtube showing you the process! kzbin.info/www/bejne/oIiafa15rqd_Y5I

she can do eveyrthing real

[@YchaoExtra]

I WAS THINKING THE SAMMEE

[@noppera_]

My mind's rollercoaster: 1. "she looks so much like Stephanie Poetri" 2. "Stephanie Poetri making games instead of music? That can't be." 3. _searching for the song I Love You 3000_ 4. _confirming the resemblance_ 5. _contemplating whether to tell her about Stephanie Poetri or not_ 6. _checking KZbin comments but no one mentions Stephanie Poetri, deciding against saying anything_ 7. _continuing to watch the video_ 8. 13:50 bruh... 😭😭😭

An idea for a diversity feature is vitiligo patches. I never really cared to see myself in-game but was pleasantly surprised when in Fallout 4, vitiligo was an option for the first time in my life!

[@loreleibright1241]

I was just about to suggest the same! I never really thought I'd get to see that as an option but now that I've had it in a few games i always miss it when its not there

[@fatimjaloh8194]

@@loreleibright1241 @ArticFrost18 its in the accessory section she did add them!

[@jamesfuller9332]

it's very cute. An addition I could think of, even though it's not very common, is more hair styles with bangs. You could even make the hair in multiple choosable layers, letting the player choose the main part of their hair, their bangs(or if they want any), and the back part of their hair(which could include options like ponytails, buns, and pigtails). You could then have far more options than what you actually drew

[@MeniMenoHello]

wait this is a great idea!! Ill be sure to add this asap! thanks!!

[@thisisamalya]

Yes please! I love that in games

[@YggdrasSoftGaming]

I second this, though I think I managed to get myself perfectly in the current version.

[@Florian87]

I was thinking the exact same thing! Even with the idea about different layers for flexibility. As a girl with bangs and a ponytail it’s surprisingly difficult to find any character creators online that have the option for this despite it being a very basic hair style :3

[@akhirajordao3399]

For diversity, as an adult with acne, I think it could be nice to add it, and things like freckles,scars, moles. It helps a lot with seeing ourselves in the art. Edit: Also in a future more complex game, I'd love to see adding walking canes and other mobility aids. As someone who needs them I think I'd be super great :)

[@MeniMenoHello]

thankyou for the ideas! I will try my best implementing all this in the character creator before the end of May! and im so glad u mentioned mobility aids! will be sure to add all these in my future game! thanks!!!

​​​@@MeniMenoHello can you add blush and crying eyes it would be cool :3 and extra hair color for example: a strip of hair that you can difrenly color?:3

[@Rai2M]

We do not need to "see ourselves in art". Stop with that narcissism. Games are about escaping the reality, not reproducing it.

[@pixelzebra8440]

She could also make it so you can make two lip colors for the top and bottom lip if you want to as well as things for disabilities like a cochlear implant or a wheelchair More Easter eggs would also be cool!

[@cryingwatercolours8127]

hair is the easiest way to add diversity. my personal struggle in games is being mixed race and having curly hair that doesn’t look like caucasian curls but isn’t as big or poofy as textured hair- and also a lack of bangs/a fringe! ive never had any, my hair just kinda falls down 😂 maybe side pieces could replace that? also there’s so many fun braid and bun hairstyles- textures or not! i’m only about half way through but some other diversity/not diversity but customisation ideas: - freckles and moles - dimples - hearing aids - head coverings - random prominent features (like collarbones, a double chin stuff like that) - piercings are always fun - gap tooth option for open mouths? -body types 11:30 nvm on stuff like chin and prominent features! wow!

im white as fuck but i got that curly hair as well and i feel u! its either barely wavy options or 4c 😭 like babe im a mix of 2c and 3b hair i need more options than that 😅

[@julianav.4031]

About the diersety, would be fun to have heterocrhomia, and PLEASE add at least one curly hair, because there's only coily hair and we curlys are always forgotten XD.

[@MeniMenoHello]

will do!! Im gonna try my best to add way more hair asap!!!

[@eddieboi4277]

I'd like to add with heterochromia, that a lot of games will just give you individual whole eye colouring options, when some heterochromia is flecks or even half an iris (like mine)

[@amendoaboemia]

The creation looks really good, but that "one script for a whole game" is wild. Good luck!

[@MeniMenoHello]

thankyou!! and yeah 😭 I really did myself dirty on that one lolll! but I will redo the character creation screen anyways for the real game so im glad I learnt what NOT to do hahaha

[@YggdrasSoftGaming]

Singletons, whether in GODOT or Unity(not sure bout Unreal so can't confirm) work really well as an overall "Save" system or Game Manager backend that keep information from scene to scene.

[@yh834ever]

I am really REALLY happy that you thought of us hijabis, and included us in, and the details you thought of in the random selection ? Truly wonderful. All love for you from Jordan 💖💝💞💝💓💕💘

[@MeniMenoHello]

so glad to hear that! I grew up in Indonesia with so many friends who use hijabs, so I always saw them as a huge part of my life! I knew that if I ever made a "dream" world for my "dream" game, they would be part of it too! Love from Indonesia!

[@KyleRavenborn]

One of my favorite things about the Coral Island design philosophy is their focus on the beauty of "flaws." Suki has stretch marks, Mark has facial scarring, my bestest boy most husbando Raphael has absolutely no control over his facial expression and his default pose is an example of physical selfsoothing. I love my little solar punk island play house.

[@themore-you-know]

Your next challenge: - Shaders. You already have awesome pixelart talent, and you are getting the grasp over scripting. Learning Shaders early, I am inclined to think that it could push your existing artistic skills way further with basic techniques, and help you plan future possibilities. Example: rainbow gradients over your grayscale characters, with the gradient adapted to the time of day.

[@themore-you-know]

Another example: using shaders to easily scroll freckles over the face, stains on clothing, etc.

[@themore-you-know]

Another feature: applying a shader to create a white highlight over hovered/selected items, instead of scaling them larger (which is a little jarring).

[@MeniMenoHello]

hi!! all of your suggestions and examples are perfect!! thankyou so much and I will look into them asap!!

[@RowanWolf22]

LOVE love this! Playing around with it was fun; I think my only ask is maybe adding beauty spots and freckles? As a person with freckles, a LOT of games miss those out and it's always saddening. I can only imagine the same feels for people with beauty spots!

[@MeniMenoHello]

omg yes! I will try adding them in before the end of May! And I hear you, so sorry that freckles got forgotten in my game but also in other games! Ill be sure to add them in my future games too!!!

[@princesscherry5217]

also as a person with freckles, having a full face/full body freckles option is only ever in dress up games & only in a few. i have freckles on the bottom of my feet lmao which i would never ask for but having at least the arms/shoulders/legs covered would be nice. 😊

[@arnab_bukit]

Honestly tackling each part of the game features is a great way to prepare for the actual dream game. Love it so far :3 and good luck!

[@dv_interval42]

Your understanding of pacing your progress so you don't get overwhelmed is CRAZY insane. I wanna learn this...

[@ketotic]

Well, I did have a lot of ideas, except it seems other people already commented on most of them. I still have a few suggestions, though: 1. In most games like this (e.g. Stardew Valley) when changing the colors of some items (like the hair), the color isn't what you see from color picker, instead it becomes greyer than the expected color (if that makes sense). But with your game, there's nothing wrong with the hair, just maybe fix the lips :)))))) 2. Piercings (ears, nose, eyebrows, lips) 3. I'd like to be able to wear one of the more covering overshirts without the undershirt showing through :) 4. Crop tops 5. If you DO add crop tops, and this might be a lot to ask, I would really like to see G-Tubes added. A G-Tube is a feeding tube that allows medicine and liquids (e.g. Orgain) to be put straight into the stomach through a tube that was added to someone's body surgically. I have one myself, as I used to - and still do - have a lot of struggles with eating too little, and the G-Tube allows me to actually survive lol. I have never in my life seen a G-Tube as an option in any game, ever. I think not many people really know what it is or something but whatever... I just think It'd be cool for there to be a G-Tube so that I can f6.ully see myself in my character :))) 6. Pride pins 7. Different body types (btw i've been listening to i love 3000 on loop lately idk i just wanted to say that)

[@Strawberry-Gothic]

I know it’s not technically diversity in a traditional sense but as a goth I find it difficult in games to get hair options like bats nests and v bangs but especially for makeup with things like grey contour, trad goth eyebrows, eyeliner, and really pointy lips. It would be great if you could add in some trad goth makeup and clothes options and also just options for different alternative fashions and subcultures. Often being part of a certain subculture can be tied to someone’s sense of self so it makes me feel a lot better when I have options that make me connect to a character and a game a lot more. After all, goths like cozy games too :)

[@giordanodsouza9563]

Omg yes! I was thinking this but couldn't articulate as well as you have!

[@sleebs]

i just want to say i really love seeing another woman making gamedev content as it feels like youtube gamedev is very oversaturated with men! its awesome to see a woman doing this bc its very inspiring for me :) love your video format!

[@JediMB]

Always really nice to see budding developers learning coding and coding patterns. Super jealous of your multi-talentedness in the art/music department, though!

[@Ambrosius_Ichor]

Watching the process behind making the whole character creator was very fascinating to me as someone who's interested in the software world [and lately pixel art because I bought SDV literally a few days ago,] and it's honestly made me really invested in whatever you do end up creating, game-wise :] As for feedback on the creator, I think a QOL feature to consider is to add an extra border around the boxed options [like the eyes, nose, mouth, eyebrows, and face accessories] and a highlighted background behind the other options [face shape, hair, and clothing] to whatever you have currently selected so it's easier to keep track of things. Personally with character customization in any game, I usually cycle through most of if not all of the options for each section to see how it actually looks on the character or how it clashes with what I've already designed, and it was a little harder for me to do that without any indicators Another one for when it's more developed, adding arrows on the mini-sprite so you can view it from the other sides like in SDV would be nice, although I get that it wouldn't have been very feasible to add that onto your workload for what you wanted to focus on in the creator demo since that would include having to draw dozens of extra sprites LOL Overall this has really cozy vibes and I'm interested to see where you go in the future in game development and I can definitely foresee people getting invested, because I already am fs

[@IsraBeezy]

The fact that this has way more options than big games like Baldur's Gate 3 is sending me

[@3emad.065]

Creating a character creation gotta difficult without limitations ngl. I just want y'all to know you always have to limit yourselves to something manageable, and when you eventually finish whatever you working on. It'll be the greatest opportunity to expand what you had. Just keep that in mind.

[@alidaaaaa7160]

I love this! It actually made me feel better about some insecurities by seeing them represented in such a casual way I guess. One thing that I thing I'd recommend is more hair options. I wasn't able to depict my straight bangs and short fluffy hair. I can totally understand why you might not want to do that, making sure it works properly sounds like a nightmare lol

[@irinasuiazova1891]

OMG! That's fantastic! Thank you for sharing your gamedev journey! Wish you BIG luck ^-^

[@HamiltonIsLife]

Medical wearables would be cool. Glasses feeding tube bandage

[@akitaropiquet7580]

I love your last 2 videos! Hope you'll make more devlogs, your art looks great! One way to break down your code in Godot (and pass information between scenes without using autoload) is to have child nodes/scenes and give them scripts too. Then you can send/receive information between nodes/scenes with signals or vars.

[@MeniMenoHello]

aaa thankyou so much!!! and wait youre so right!! I will research more about that!

[@vikci234]

Maybe you should add different heights, more accessories,more hair(like pony tails or pigtails or buns), have heterochromia option, add what they hate or love to add some more peronality, and maybe varieties of piercings! :D

[@djinni2005]

I'm a massive fan of this prototype! One thing I always look for in a character reator though is being able to select beards and mustaches separately. I like to mix and match, usually something with a bushy beard lol

[@lexingtondavid]

I think a really cool thing to add would be hairstyles that either cover one eye or both, for those that like to have character with unseen features! Plus in all honesty Hair styles that cover one eye are super cool~

[@Im_ARock]

Oh wow, this looks like something I would see in, like, Stardew Valley! Seriously, I was able to create such a close replica to myself that it's scary, not to mention the art was so well done. Plus, the video was very well made! Everything was explained very well and I feel like I've actually learned a thing or two, wonderful job! :D

[@OkayKoda_off]

probably not possible but i would love to see some mobility aids, like wheelchairs, canes and crutches personally im never without a mobility aid so a lot of the time they feel like part of me or an extension of myself they probably wont be visible to the headshot, but maybe for the full body mini dude? the creator is super cute and i loove love your artstyle❤

[@MatsonKey]

I would love to see long curly hair, latina style, and options for hairs with bows! I wear my hair help with a bow on the back of my neck pretty much every day, and I love it. Both of those are really rare to find in character creators so I'd love to see them! :3

[@lasagnafrenchtoasthoneybutter]

I played the character creator and I'm really excited that you added hair that is in between long and short. (I have hair that stops just below my ears) usually games only have long hair and really short hair! I was struggling to find something that I could suggest a change for, but one of the things that a lot of games don't do is making baggy clothes. It would be nice to have some t shirts where the sleeves aren't always touching the skin, or some pants that are really grunge inspired.

[@fdania9039]

Hehe love to see pixelart. Btw I think the easter egg is fun and all, but I can see someone getting really confused/frustrated that they can’t take the shrek ears off, since I don’t think most ppl’s instinct is to type ‘No Shrek’ in. Maybe instead you can have it as almost an unlock? Where it automatically is on when you first type Shrek, but can be toggled on and off like any other item, this could also let you change the colour of the ears. Just some suggestions, great video! ❤

[@anitacrumbly]

out here making one of the best character creators ive seen for pixel art and a lot of just in general things! great job!

[@harasen_haras5]

What a nice project. I enjoy coming across character creators and trying them out. This one's got a nice vibe and great potential. It was also fun seeing a game that opens up in its own window the way this does. I haven't seen that in ages. If you want suggestions for features to add, I have a few things I'd enjoy seeing: A bangs + ponytail combo... Or maybe a feature to choose front and back of the hair separately if you can find a way to implement it without it feeling off. Patchy facial hair and stubble options. Slightly frowning looking mouth options. An option to choose the distance between the eyes and the distance between the brows.

[@springbreezegaming4017]

maybe a separate option that lets you seperate the different layers of hair to be able to mix and match or somthing like that, because maybe bangs from one hair looks good with a different hair or whatever. oh and maybe and option for Vitiligo too. i think that would be cool.

[@ANGEL-sy8fz]

It looks amazing!!! :D Thats so cool! I bet this has already been suggested but maybe considering options for dyed hair options could look really cool! Like having a strip of color or a faded color! I love all the details and effort you put into this!! Happy late birthday too!!

[@gmiill]

Gotta say first of all, this is so cool and I have been wanting to do something like this for AGES but don't have your skill with pixel art. For sure earned a new sub with this one. I love how many options there are, and how you can choose any color you want (I hate when there's never the right type of brown for my hair/eyes - like either light brown or black are the only options.) My suggestions that I would pick for my character if they were options: - Dimples! - More necklines for the shirts. They're all basic scoop necklines, would love to see a v-neck, square, sweetheart neckline, etc - A half up/half down hairstyle (this is my go to hairstyle in real life, so I love when it's in games). Also, more long/past the shoulder hair styles - Belts. I never see games do this, but I feel like it's a great way for the top/bottoms of the outfit to be more seamless. - Shoe color? I dunno, that could be cool to pick These are pretty nit picky, and besides the dimples I don't think most people would be super sad to see them not added. More of personal preference than actual need for representation. The shirt options too, maybe? I also wanted to say how its so cool that you're actually taking suggestions! It was really nice to open up the game and see that you had already added some of the requests I saw in the comments. Edit: also, maybe a way to see what you have currently selected? I have a bad habit of wondering, oh would this one look better, then clicking it, deciding it's worse, and then having to click through every option to find the original one I liked Edit 2: Would love a way to save my character! Don't know why, I guess I don't really need to, but she's so cute!

[@Atlas-vs-theworld]

It could be cool to add the ability to add pins to clothing, that would help feel like the character is even more personalised

[@clairel1687]

the character creator is super cute! I would add a little outline or checkmark on whichever eye/nose/etc the user has selected so you know which one you are using

[@mrkrabshankandersonreal]

This is so intricately detailed and wonderful!! I'm so glad that you're trying to make the character customization diverse so that everyone can feel included, and I agree, those old customizing games felt non inclusive and I could never see myself in the character as I'm mixed with curly hair. ^^ I find it so cool how much dedication you have to creating this wonderful game!! The music is so beautiful and silly as well, like at 13:34 I would add this 2 my playlist so fast!! Haha, keep up the wonderful work you're doing amazing at it and I'm shocked with how underrated you are!! I've always wanted to make multiple games of my own but have no idea how to start, and this video rlly helps me in figuring that out at least a bit. ^_^

[@Mastermind6425]

This looks like a really cool character creator! For some reason I am always very disappointed with the beard choices in creators like these, so I would suggest having many different options for different beard lengths. Also having an option to choose the mustache and the beard separately would be great

firstly, love the vibes of it all! such a fun mix between shiny and cozy. and i ADORE having the color selector and toggles for accessories. consider me deeply impressed with your work. and now some suggestions, if i may; - one or two mullets, including a curly one - i know so many other people with mullets. - some partly dyed hair color options, maybe as overlays? - unibrow, no eyebrows, and/or some fun shapes like half-shaved, just dots, or even stars (i have mine shaven and draw on stars when i feel fancy) - sideburns - bindi :) - an eyepatch - some wide pants (edit: sorry to read about your kosmemophobia

[@jiiynx-yz2yg]

being able to choose piercings would be really cool!

[@vivalanina]

the amount of work done is very impressive! The colors look a bit muted though and could use more shadows, highlights and saturation. A good amount of leveling adds a lot of expression to a character. My only other suggestion is using the color picker scale for lips because the lipstick options stuck to naturals for the most part, and it'd be fun to play more with makeup/rosey bright colors.

[@CesarEfrainMaldonado]

I can't grow a full beard, but was able to approximate pretty well by making the facial hair option the same color as my skin, then making it a tad darker. maybe for the facial hair, a color option could just be a slightly darker version of the skin color? In lieu of making more facial hair options. which I can see a problem with too many options congesting the UI and general experience, the other comment on hair customization sounds like an incredibly interesting idea that I think may possibly generalize to other components of character customization. speaking of hair, I couldn't get a great match, but I do want to say that the way some of these styles lay is so organic and it's really satisfying to look at. The pixel art as a whole is really quite enjoyable and has a lot of personality.

[@Willisoutforblood]

as someone who's not a hijabi but has a hijabi sister, could you add some more alternate hijabi styles? i don't know what it's called in english, but there's a lot more hijabi styles that are fun to mess around with! also, i think that having a face paint option where you can draw the paint on yourself (like a mini art pad or smth) would be really cool!

[@hanne_draws]

I am so excited to see where this project goes! The character creator is one of my favorites now!

[@Tankekraft]

wow, great job!! I would love to see piercings, and stubble for facial hair. Also to make them stackable like the other facestuff so you can have a stubble on the cheeks and still a mustache for example. For hair, those that are shaved on the sides, like mohawk and mullet. I found the buttons for picking colours to be a little off. I think on the facial hair or lips it didn't mark the colour I pointed the mouse at. And while I do appriciate a colour spectrum, I didn't find the target to be accurate.

[@Yuxi_lixiii.]

A series of tutorials that goes in depth or a course is a great idea. I would buy it. I would love to see someone who actually explains Pixel art especially characters part by part. Clothes, hair, skin( shading and light). Also how to pick colors that fit together in a character. If you ever do it, just setup a Ko-fi account to give you something in return.

[@MeniMenoHello]

aa you have a point there! I love learning WITH people more than learning FROM them sometimes! haha and thankyou i appreciate it so much!

[@momozaku]

maybe add stuff like moles, scars, birthmarks, vitiligo etc thats the first few things that popped into my head Its looks great either way! Keep up the spirit, you'll do great as a developer!

[@YchaoExtra]

Omgg, this is AMAZING! You should like totally make your own game like Stardew Valley and input this.

[@caleschip]

i cant wait to play this omg, and when your full game comes out i'll throw all my money at it💀i would recommend adding dimples, moles, eyebags, maybe some necklaces and earrings!

[@NakiAlixie]

Okey let's be honest, we all need more clothes and hairs, or its just me, idk, love that game, i will be happy to play your other creations!

The background music makes my brain feel good

[@user-ng8gm9pb4v]

This is so awesome! I LOVE character creation in games :O and you nailed it! It would he so cool if you made a video explaining your dream game with some concept art if you have some :3 ❤💕💕 Of course you don’t have to if you don’t want to >w< Also I love how “cozy” and warm your videos feel :3 sometimes the frenetic stuff you find on KZbin nowadays can get overwhelming and overstimulating 😖

[@MeniMenoHello]

thankyou so much! Im so glad to hear that! and yes!!! Im going to work on a video, maybe a devlog #0? to explain the whole idea and inspiration behind it! and so glad that you like the less energetic style of my videos!

[@user-ng8gm9pb4v]

⁠@@MeniMenoHellohehe no problem! :3 I should be the one feeling great fun 💖💖 yess that’s an awesome idea to name it :o “Devlog #0”. Also I understand if you don’t actually start developing it until a long time into the future, as these kind of big projects need a lot of love and learning :3 but I still think the devlog #0 could help, maybe to stablished the fundaments of your game and to get feedback and new ideas from the comments ❤

This is really neat! Would love to see it in full with walking etc animations.

[@tavistars]

I had a blast playing with the creator. I would love to see some short curly hair options with different hair textures, couldn't find a hair that matched mine but settled with one that's kind of close. Some freckles, beauty mark, earring, and necklace options would be cool! Being able to change the background color or texture would be nice. I look forward to watching your channel and one day playing your game!

[@the_legend_of_xd]

This is for real the first character creator I've used that has a good selection of hair types. It's easy to use and has so many options. But it would be great if you included an option to move the eyes closer or further apart in a certain range. And saving as a file and exporting a png would be cool for sharing creations.

[@SV_Sol]

An addition that I think would be helpful for usability is an undo button, so if I randomize by accident I don't lose my progress/selections.

[@juliar6647]

I love this creator!! I had a lot of fun trying to make myself in it. It reminds me of pixiv a lot and its a huge plus

[@ellapersonal]

Omg you are so creative and talented, this is really encouraging me to stop being lazy lol

[@sallysugar5191]

i love the diversity features you added ❤

[@MeniMenoHello]

yayy! im so glad to hear that!

[@potatopotayto8332]

commenting to boost >:3 the result was rlly good and the commentary was rlly fun!

[@bleeblee79]

You may want to add two blanks spaces for first and last name. This may make it easier in future games as you can always have the flexibility to take using names either way depending on how your game wants to refer to the character. This also could be good for a game with character relationship focus as characters could refer to you with your last name as a formality, and then swap to using first name once you establish a friendship :)

[@hidden._.artist8108]

It's amazing! The only thing i can think to add would be a back button just cuz it kinda sucks to finish the character and accidentally click the randomize button instead of the name button

[@lunamoon2092]

some ideas: maybe some weight options / body shapes , its something that ALOT of games lack, but either way i loveee your artsyle and would most DEF play ur game :33

[@BanditCatArt]

This is really cool! I actually just a few days ago started a new Stardew Valley world and was wishing the character creator was a bit more detailed! Some things that I think could be good additions is adding the ability to move the eyes and eyebrows closer of further from each other, and maybe some neck accessories such as necklaces or scarves. I also noticed one small issue, the teeth seem to be slightly misplaced, some of the mouth options that show that the teeth should be visible just have a hole in the middle, and some of the options that shouldn't have teeth have teeth above the upper lip. Overall it's really well made! Keep up the great work!

[@Sunset_Falls]

I think adding braids or more afro and curly hair options would be great! I also think having bigger/rounder afro's would really help with realism
