What'd be interesting is if they added a sense of realism or at least a setting that enforced a few other restrictions. It'd be interesting to see what you ended up evolving. Things like metabolism limit the size and shape of creatures but I doubt this will be a feature since it would probably be considered too restrictive
I also wonder whether they'll have support for subterranean, airborne or arboreal species.

Maybe there will be millions of Spore expansion packs.... I seem to recall some other game doing that. <_< >_>

he had said that because of time constraints he won't be able to put everything he wanted into the retail version, but he said that because of this they have already started planning expansions.

So far in the game they said there will be climate shifts and stuff too that you will have to evolve around, which I think is cool that they took that into concideration.. also you have to plan where to build a nest and such, so that the eggs don't get eaten easily. With all these things built into the game, I'm sure there will be a suprising number of realistic issues that you will encounter.

I really hope they have it availble to have nocturnal creatures.. or creatures that live in caves that can only come out for food at night time. I was thinking of making a species like that, and they would have to abandon their cities and migtarte to the dark side of the planet every day. I think that would be really cool. In an older video I saw they said that after you reach the space age, you can go back and colonize the seas... they might have taken that feature out though, cause I havn't heard of it since that first video.

I think that half the fun will be making these creatures look as realistic as possible.. resizing, and resizing and resizing. I really hope that eventually they allow custom textures and bumpmaps.

One thing I'd like to see is creatures that have fur or feathers rather than just scaly or bumpy skin. I know fur is a pain in the rear, especially doing it procedurally, but it would look nice.

actually, I think they have feathers and "fur" in the "extras" menu.. atleast they do judging by these screen shots...

i can't wait to conquer evolution.

Ooh that looks hot.

I didn't see those. I stand corrected.

Oh my god. I didn't know they had fur and feathers.

Oh my god. I want it.

More screenshots, please?

I want saws on my hands.

I'm eager to build unique cities and construct my own battlemachines of war.

haha.. that's funny you should say that zell... cause you CAN put saws on your creatur's hands!!

Me wants.

He already knows. There's a picture in the thread, if you didn't see it.

As cool as it is to be able to create any kind of creature you want, am I the only one that wants to build a civilization based around say, the Asgard or Ancients from Stargate? Or anything humanoid. Maybe just humans.

Edit: What if you can create parasitic creatures with one of the expansions? OMG Goa'uld.

I just wanna make some ****in Luxons.

Yeah, I've already got a bunch of humanoid species planned. I want to make a whole planet of humans, then make another planet full of wookies, then make them fight. I want a REAL wookie battle, Lucas! A REAL ONE.
