No, you won't be able to use these creatures that your creating in the real game but as soon as the EA registration servers go back up (17th) we'll be able to register and upload our creature designs to a central server. Then, when the game gets released and people make it out of the "tide pool" phase and into the "creature" phase, the game will automatically download creatures from the server which users have created in the creature creator. The game will create a valid ecosystem with a sensible mix of carnivores and herbivores (the demo only provides carnivorous mouths but herbivorous mouths will be available in the full version of the SCC). Your creature in your world will have evolved from choices you made in the "tide pool" phase and each time you go through a new generation, DNA points (the currency of the creature creator) will allow you to add more parts. The creatures that people create through "evolution" in the real game will also be uploaded to the central server and used to populate other peoples worlds and galaxies. This is why it is called a MSOG (Massively Singleplayer Online Game).

Thanks for the update.

I cant find this demo.

Most people here got it from the leaked version on Megaupload, which has been taking down now. Not sure when the real release is going to be.

The real release is 17th June, you've not got long to wait.

Queue Dumb Question:

Will the Creator Creator be part of the Spore game?

As it has been said, it's not part of the game but the creatures created by everyone will be available in the full Spore game.

[zerologic]

So you can't actually create your own creature in Spore and then play the game? :blink: If this is correct, I think I might not buy this game. :$

[The_Decryptor Veteran]

Of course the character creator is part of the game.

[Minifig]

No. Will Wright has said that it only translates to the Wii and DS properly.

Will the Creator Creator be part of the Spore game?

The Creature Creator, the 10 dollar version of it.. will create characters for anyone and everyone to use, and be creatures for the Sporepedia!, and to that effect, yes, you can use them in your game.

[Cheshire Cat]

The creature creator, from what I understand, is part of the full game, but your creatures in the game are through an evolution from single-cell upwards and the final look will change as you add and remove parts whilst playing...

The recently released Creature Creator is a stand-alone thing designed so that when you first put the full game in and install it, your world can be populated with life made by others, afterall, it'd take a LOT of work for the dev's to be expected to make million's of different critters to populate everyones world's.

[Minifig]

it's within the game itself.

Where's that option ?

[Pseudonym]

Cheshire Cat is spot on, there will be a similar screen in the real game but you won't be able to make the creature suddenly from scratch, it'll be a matter of adding and removing parts each generation (a bit like evolution except its guided by you and not natural selection).

[Cheshire Cat]

I'm rather looking forward to it actually... I have a list of creature's I intend to make :yes:

We have to wait until friday in the UK for the official release, so I am going to see if I can upgrade my trial version online or something.

[Unimatrix Xero]

is anyone having issues sharing their creations? ive done 4 in the past few days and only 1 has been uploaded today

just for me it only seems that i can share 1 animal per game run, if that makes any sence
