Achieving Evolutionary Perfection! | Creature Creator (Creature Designer Exploration Game)
511Creature Creator is a game that allows us to create creators that are the very pinnacle of evolution! We begin as a mere blob but as we explore our surroundings we unlock various new body parts, such as claws, eyes, fins and wings, that we can attach to our little blobby body to give us new abilities!
Plus, as if this wasn't good enough, we also get to choose a colour scheme and pattern for our creature! So of course, inevitably, we go for Geek Cupboard corporate colours.
We begin on a little island where we meet our creature, who we call Bernard (obviously) and soon enough Bernard has the ability to trundle about on little legs. After a few modifications he then goes for a bit of a swim!
We then take Bernard to the farm level where we discover so many fantastically advanced body parts and it's there where Bernard becomes the very finest creature of all, a being that is evolutionarily perfect!

Create your own creatures to explore online worlds with friends and collect new parts to upgrade your stats and abilities! Complete quests, battle enemies or just have fun roleplaying — the possibilities are endless when your imagination is the limit!
Gameplay
Inspired by Spore's creature stage, the core gameplay loop involves constructing creatures to explore hand-crafted maps and collect body parts and patterns to further upgrade your creature. You can then use your newly acquired abilities to complete quests to earn cash and re-invest into your creature.
However, if you’re more interested in just creating creatures, then you can switch over to creative mode and everything will already be unlocked!
The creation tool consists of three different modes: build-, paint- and play mode.
In build mode, you can customize the shape of your creature by manipulating its spine and attach transformable body parts. Altering your creature then changes its statistics (e.g., weight, speed, health etc.) and attaching certain body parts gives it special abilities (e.g., flying, swimming, biting etc.).
In paint mode, you can change the color of your creature’s body and attached body parts, as well as the pattern and texture of your creature’s skin.
When you’re finished designing your creature, you can bring it to life in play mode! Traverse lush forests, swim in the ocean or fly high above the clouds — your creature will procedurally animate to adapt to its environment.
…and the game itself is only half of the product! Get involved in the development by joining the community Discord server and diving into the project’s code!
