Build A Squishy is a free 3D squishy creator that runs in your browser: pick a shape, color, finish, filling and sparkles from 46+ million combinations, watch your squishy form, then squeeze, stretch, poke and cut it open with material-aware ASMR sound.

No accounts, no ads, no downloads — creations live on your own device, and a share link rebuilds any squishy on a friend's screen without anything touching a server.

What players do

Design a squishy from 16 shapes, 74 colors, 29 finishes, 42 fillings and 32 sparkle add-ins — over 46 million combinations — and watch it magically form.
Play with it: squeeze, poke, stretch and jiggle with material-aware sound, plus 16 tricks from Big Drop to Slow-Mo.
Cut it open and play with the insides — taffy pulls, slime, and a "Keep the Insides" remix mechanic.
Collect and trade: 23 challenges, rare and legendary parts, a display shelf, and a trading floor of computer-run collector characters (never other people).
Send a squishy to a friend — the link carries only the recipe, so the recipient gets a copy and nothing personal is shared.

The privacy story (why it matters)

Build A Squishy is built for an audience that includes kids under 13, so it takes the strictest possible posture: there is no backend at all. Creations are stored in the browser; sharing works through a link that encodes the squishy's "recipe" in the link itself, so nothing a player makes is ever uploaded. No accounts, no chat, no ads, no tracking for advertising — the full details are in the privacy policy.

About the maker

Build A Squishy is an independent project by Matt Uffalussy, a web developer in the United States. It started as a toy for his own kids and grew into a full creator-collector sandbox — built solo, tuned by hand, and kept deliberately free of the things that make parents nervous.
