Did you know that it's been seven years to the day since the release of Lion Quest? It surely has been, and now FINALLY you can make your own animal. Welcome to Lion Quest 1.6.0, an exciting new update to the game which adds in a character creator called the Animal Maker.
With the Animal Maker you've got all the tools needed to modify your existing character (e.g you can change their colour or give them a fun hat), but it's also flexible enough for you to create a brand new design. The only limits are your imagination and the 10x10 square grid!

Save and Share your characters

Some tips for making your own animal:

• There's a new icon on the level select labelled AM (which stands for Animal Maker) to look out for. But you can also just select Animal Maker from the pause menu on the level select, and this is the easiest way to load up the character creation screen.
• Your character should face right slightly. If you draw them facing left then it will look like they're walking backwards in the game.
• The bottom row of the grid is animated, so here's where your character's legs go

How do I stop being a custom character?
