We wanted to do something unique that depicted the story of what really happens to some consumers that stuck with this awful burden. We thought doing that with almost kid-friendly sort of way would be a great way to depict that story. It’s a fairy tale but it really hits home for many consumers burdened with credit card debt.

These Characters are highly inspired by Monopoly and the Vault Boy from Bethesda’s Fallout franchise. We loved the style of those brands and really wanted to bring them over to our story to help get the point across in a fun way. We of couhad to pay homage to what inspired some themes behind this story.

There’s no real life monster but we do have a real life Costume of the Credit Card Monster. It has only been worn a handful of times on a handful of occasions but it was a fun side project to make nonetheless. It’s pretty cool to have the costume that matches the animation. We hope to do more fun projects like this somewhere down the line.

As you can see from our web page titled “Book” we would like to eventually create a more detailed story that is produced in a written form and eventually becomes a published book. For now this is just an idea and this idea has been temporarily put on hold as we also want to make sure we adjusting the story for the correct audience.

When the beginnings of this story were first being crafted one of our original ideas was to focus on financial literacy. We wanted to create something both fun, informative and an education resource. We wanted this work to be an addition to what kids currently learn about financial literacy during school. Our ultimate wish is that it makes an impact.

We would love to continue the story when time permits but for now part two of the credit card monster likely won’t appear anytime soon. We still plan to add small changes and tweaks but full content adds will be in short supply in the near term. It’s been a pleasure to work on this saga and to be able to see the finished product thus far.
