What a marvellous plan - release the creature editor now, so that by the time the full version of Spore is released there’s already an enormous library of creatures to populate the worlds with!
And blimey - what a joy the editor is to play with - if only all 3D packages were as effortless and intuitive as this. Draw the shape of the spine, and then tweak by dragging the verterbrae around. Scale various body sections by rolling the mouse wheel on each bone (although this is actually quite cumbersome because of my rubbish sticky mouse wheel).
And after literally minutes of not at all laborious fiddling you end up with something like my amazing Eleplump!
Although there’s not a lot you can do with your creatures once you’ve made them (aside from upload them and make YouTube videos of them dancing), it’s well worth the measly £5 they’re asking for it.
It’s just astounding (or maybe not, I suppose) how many people are making willies with it.
Get it here!

One of the really cool things about the Creature Editor, is that all the data required to build the creation in the editor is embedded into the PNG thumbnails. So you can download these, drag them into your creature folder and tinker!
So post your creatures here!
