Guest Monster Designers
Guest monster designers (or "Surprise Monster Designers" as they were referred to on Kickstarter) was the $7,500 stretch goal for the Monster Crown Kickstarter campaign. Initially, this goal brought on three guest designers, although it was later revealed that more designers than this had contributed to the game.

On the Monster Crown Kickstarter campaign, one of the game's stretch goals was to recruit a handful of guests to design monsters for the project.
The designers for this goal were revealed in a YouTube video on Apr 16 2018. They included:
- Adam V./koolboyman: Adam V. created the Pokemon Prism ROM Hack, and was recruited as the developer "really wanted to pay tribute to the monster taming community".
- Saiko Takaki: Saiko Takaki is responsible for the character designs within the Telefang game series, and was recruited to contribute a design to the game. It was eluded to that this monster may be rare, as the developer called the monster "pretty legendary".
- Siralim 3 Crossover Content: It was revealed that at least one area, and a monster, the Cosmos Vulpes, from the game Sarilam 3 would appear in Monster Crown.
Following this, it was revealed on discord that an artist by the alias 16Bit had "helped out one a few monsters!"[sic]. His designs include Maphallis and Vertium. Supposedly he "designed a lot of monsters for the game", several of which were scrapped presumably due to time constraints.
During the Monster Crown Private Beta Stream, that one of 16Bit's friends and another unknown guest designer would be making a contribution of two monsters to the game.
No other guest designers are known to exist presently.
