Can someone explain that picture to me?

To me it's like a Sims2 mod or something.

It's a demo for the creature creator that's gonna be in Spore. Look it up if you don't know what it is.

Well... I wasn't far off, same developer as the Sims.

I guess it's a bit like Star Wars - The Gungan Frontier?

Isn't Feraligator a Pokemon?

Edit: Yes it is. Well hot damn I can make Pokemon in Spore

I can't find a way to select a different head shape or get a torso.

Otherwise, I'm excited for Spore, seeing as I've been waiting 3 years.

To make the body bigger you have to click (don't hold) the backbones or whatever it is and drag your mouse wheel.

No. You create any species you want, the game figures out how to animate them, and you advance them to the point they are exploring the stars. You can create anything in the creature creator. Someone has even created a properly animated Hydralisk. One of the developers created Carebears as a race. The only limit is your imagination.

I don't need to know how to make it bigger, I just need to know how to put a torso on my creature at all.

Currently, I am staring at a weirdly-shaped head, and I can add arms, legs, a mouth, eyes, whatever, except for I cannot add a body/torso, and I can't figure out how to do that.

Wow...I expected the graphics to look way more impressive than that.

Disappointed already

It's hard to make the graphics better when everything is procedurally generated.

Think of this game as Black + White, plus Sim City, Plus the Sims, plus Civilization, plus Imperium Galactica II, plus a bit of Freelancer.

Pokemans!!!!

None of these are mine btw, just off the sporepedia.

Meh. If I'm looking for impressive graphics, I'll just fire up something like Poser or Daz studio and see what I can crank out (which isn't that great yet). Right now I think flexibility in what you can do should take precidence over nice looks.

That said, I'm probably not going to buy it; EA is badong*.

*bad + wrong = badong

When you click the body, you'll see two arrows and a spine.
Dragging on the arrows lengthens the spine.
Clicking a spine piece and using your mousewheel makes that section fatter or skinnier. You can make a head by making the top piece of a spine big, and the piece under it really small.

BTW bhavv, those are really cool!

Here is my only attempt so far. It's simple and ugly.

Here is one more.
