Step
In short

- Create start a new cartoon to open an empty scene.
- Add characters place stickmen, animals, props, and effects wherever you want them.
- Pose drag joints to put each character into the shape you need.
- Add a frame insert a new frame and move everything just a little from where it was.

Tools worth knowing about
CheckIn short
Knowing what each tool does before you start saves a lot of backtracking later.
The game gives you several tools beyond basic posing. Getting familiar with them early means you spend time creating rather than hunting through menus.
- Free drawing lets you sketch anything in any color at any brush size.
- The color picker grabs any color already visible in your scene, so you can match things exactly.
- Speech bubbles display dialogue above a character, making scenes feel like an actual story.
- Camera controls let you zoom in and move the view to shift focus between moments.
- Scene backgrounds include City, Beach, Space, and Night, giving you a ready-made setting without any extra work.

Gallery, likes, and badges
Summary
In short
Publishing to the Gallery is the only path to view-count badges, and collecting likes pushes your cartoon toward the top of the listing.
Once a cartoon is finished, share it in the Gallery so other players can watch it. Views across all your shared cartoons add up over time, and hitting certain totals unlocks badges. Cartoons with more likes rank higher in the Gallery, which brings in more views.
- 100 total views Rising Animator badge
- 1,000 total views Popular Animator badge
- 10,000 total views Star Animator badge
- 100,000 total views Legendary Animator badge

- Gallery
- The in-game space where players publish their finished cartoons for anyone to watch and like.
- Color picker
- A tool that samples any color already on your scene so you can reuse it exactly.
- Speech bubble
- A visual element that appears above a character to show dialogue, making them look like they are talking.
Common questions

Up to 30 players can be in one room at the same time.
