thanks. nice game

could have a pause button...

 

[Jacobi]

Damn this rocks. Did I play this against other players ? This would fit the DS SO PERFECT, with Wi-Fi !

 

[saelz8]

This is really great, suprisingly it has alot of atmosphere.

Edit. Oh shit, I restarted the game and this time I evolved differently. I have arms! Awesome!

 

[robo_robo]

Nice... I think I got to the bottom. I don't think spore will be that action oriented though...

 

[Yoboman]

How do I evolve?

 

[saelz8]

How do I evolve?

It does it automatically, I think it depends on what you eat and how fast you eat. Not sure.

 

[r4z4]

How do I evolve?

Keep munching on other creatures till they drop a '+' and eat that.

 

[Great Rumbler]

That was a pretty cool game, really like the atmostphere.

 

[:Motorbass]

yeah, fear me.

Killed everything. The large squid in depth-lv 7 or so was a bitch tho.
Now if I don't find a Mrs.flow, it's dying time now, I guess :[ So much for evolution...
The guy should keep on working on the game.

 

[Battersea Power Station]

I thought I ate everything, but the last two dots are still not maxed out. Maybe that's just the design.

 

[Jonnyram]

I loved it!
This is my effort:

 

[Asskicker064]

I was kicking ass then my dude just stopped moving. I don't think I died, I had plenty of health.

 

[DieNgamers]

I didnt evolve very much. After 20 minutes I just couln't find any meals anymore

 

[Zensetsu]

I couldn't figure out how to eat the big circular thing that keeps flashing orange....I killed the smaller ones by accident but the big one keeps tearing me a new one.

 

[MightyHedgehog]

Eat the biggest circular components when it turns white, I think. I ate everything in all of the depth/evolution levels...and there wasn't anything else to do but wander aimlessly. I enjoyed it, tho. It'll be interesting to see if they take this further.

 

[iapetus]

Eat the biggest circular components when it turns white, I think.

It doesn't have to be white - you can eat the bits when it's orange, although in the orange state it's actively trying to beat the crap out of you, so it may be a little more difficult.

 

[MightyHedgehog]

Heh. You're right. I was too stoned to see that I could still eat their pieces while they were orange. It's when they fade to blue/go deeper down to avoid you that you can't touch them.

The game's a pretty smart design in psychological/visual understanding. I love all of the subtle cues for the player, such as the radar pings to let you know where you can ascend/descend are in relation to your current position. The way you attack enemies and the Serpentine-style segment growth and fill-in of the worms, both yours and theirs. The ability to see across levels is pretty cool, too....giving you an understanding of what to expect. And the music reminds me of Ecco on the Genny...soothing, whale song-sounding stuff. Good shit to play while stoned, I say.

 

[Miguel]

This is way too much...enterainment.

[GFord]

Love It!

 

[Grug]

nice find thanks

 

[RaySpencer]

Saw that on Digg a couple days ago, was pretty fun...


but damnit the guy that looks like you at the bottom is to hard for me to beat :'(

 

[Pedigree Chum]

Wow that was cool, a fleshed out version of that for the DS would be awesome.

 

[sammy]

this is awesome, it's like spore and electroplankton inspired

 

[Earthstrike]

How come my guy disappears after eating a couple of guys and then I have to restart?

 

[emomoonbase]

How do you toggle between weapons?

 

[Trurl]

That was pretty damn cool. I hope that the early stage of Spore has the same quality of atmosphere.
More importantly I hope my PC can play Spore.

 

[Phoenix]

That was very cool...

 

[Mr. Spinnington]

Yay! Although I wish I knew how the game ends : (

 

[emomoonbase]

This needs to be MMO with more variation in the evoloutions.

 

[Jive Turkey]

That was a lot of fun. Was really hard until I learned the left mouse button made me go faster! =O

 

[teepo]

[Pikelet]

[mckmas8808]

the latest wired had a small one page article on the creator

Did he say how it was to work with Sony?

 

[EternalDarko]

This game is awesome! Great find!

I evolved and went so far into the black and ate several creatures similar to myself that the game went all the way back up to the top with a different creature and this time the background is a muddy yellow.
