Spore is the brainchild of Will Wright- the man behind one of the best-selling video game franchises ever,
The Sims. Players begin the game as a small microbe trying to absorb other microbes and eat food. As it grows into a full creature, the player can design the creature and watch it react and adapt to its environment. The game goes from this small, molecular level to a level in which civilizations of creatures are interacting with others. It's received a lot of hype, and it's due out this September. The
Spore Creature Creater is a pre-release utility for the
game, giving players access to the design utility of the game, which has been pushed to its limits to create many familiar characters. I have to say, these are impressive. Some of my favorites:
Master Chief:
Kirby:
Yoshi(this guy did the eyes really well):
A house(2D genius):
Big Daddy:
Mario Star:
Pikachu(this one's pretty good):
Ice cream!
While we're still on pokemon... Celebi:
A goomba:
Pizza?
The Cloverfield Monster:
And my favorite creation, a breadstick:
