God Made Crab is a slapstick comedy series for all ages that retells the story of Adam and Eve from the perspective of the animals.
Message from Creators
Brought to you by artists with credits on Klaus, Sonic 2 and Paddington in Peru,
God Made Crab is a hilarious and heartwarming animated series about faith, perseverance and unlikely friendships, all wrapped up in absurd slapstick and visual comedy.
Our mission is for God made Crab to be the first of many series exploring Bible stories through the untold lens of the animals — offering families & Churches God-honouring entertainment which stays true to the core messaging of the original texts.
When the paradise of Eden becomes a savage world overnight, a bewildered crab embarks on a journey to uncover what went wrong—and how it can be made right.
The Story
Distribution
When Adam and Eve shatter the tranquility of Eden Living, one cranky Crab sets off to restore order in his quest for a quiet life, only to discover that being a hermit is hard work when you're suddenly the centre of attention.
Lugging the last forbidden fruit on his back and forced to team up with an overfriendly Mole who sees himself as a tour guide, this really is the blind leading the blind. Can Crab get himself and all of Eden out of a pinch?

Total Raise: £2.8M
Phase 1: £800k
During this phase we will develop the story and art direction for the full series, create the key assets and produce the pilot.

Kids' animation ranks highest for rewatchability across Angel titles — a key advantage under Angel’s watch-time-based pay-out model. Children’s tendency to revisit favourites boosts cumulative viewership and, in turn, creator earnings. Meanwhile, the Angel Guild has doubled in size in under 5 months, expanding the base of paying members — and the long-term potential for filmmaker residuals.
