It's been years since I first read about Spore. I downloaded a few videos of the game in action. I saw Will Wright talk about the new game and how he saw it to be revolutionary. It was enough to excite the geek in me.The game is to be released this fall (September 7th, to be exact), but today the demo version of the creature creator is available for free download. Clive Thompson for Wired has a nice little hats-off to the game. I'll have to wait until tonight to try it out. Work comes first... heh.
I'm fascinated by parametric modeling, music, texturing... anything really. And that's what this game employs (yes, even the music is at least somewhat parametrically generated).
For now, we just get to play with a very limited set of tools for the creatures.
