Making Spore Creatures and Buildings - Easy Peasy

Published by milawe at 9:33 am under Game Design, Misc Edit This

The House of Sprongton - A Spore BuildingMaxis definitely made it quite easy to create beautiful and interesting items in Spore.  Obviously, it was in their best interest to make it easy since so many of the creatures and buildings end up on other people’s games.  It would be horrid to end up with some pretty blah and bland looking items done by a lazy player.  They obviously spent a ton of time programming their creation interface to be used even by the most inept gamers or people new to the game like me.  I was completely impressed by how easy it was to make something decent.

Obviously, I’m still practicing in my free time, which is a pretty rare commodity.  I’ve added the Spore Widget to my blog so that people can download what they want or just see what I’ve made.  (Again, notice how easy they made it to share my Spores!)

    Oops. I just noticed that the Spore feed contains some of the stuff my husband made using my game. All the ugly stuff is his! Hehe.
