    Before Spore launched, there was the Creature Creator, an early access chance to play with the creature maker tools. The actual mechanics were similar to launch spore, but iirc they did change some.
    I made a few serious creatures, but also made the Jellybean Of Death - a two-segment long creature with max stats. It got these stats by stacking multiple parts over each other, since they were additive in that build.
    Sure enough, the first titanic creature I found was the Jellybean of Death.

    If you’re looking for new Spore challenges, maybe try the “Egg-only challenge”. Eat nothing but eggs from cell to tribal stage. I think there are a couple of levels of cell stage you’ll have to eat something else as the eggs don’t spawn, but other than that it completely possible for the later stages. And it completely changes how you play the creature stage.

Countless species and civilizations have been annihilated in the name of the Teeny Weeny Empire for getting in the way. Not even the mighty Grox stood a chance.

    What have you done to me? I'm a spore fanatic now and have lost sleep over the Grox pissing me and my allies off.

    I agree with skipping the space stage. I also hate it. Why is it so stinking bad? I don't really know, but it is.

    Honestly hoping our green friend does an Economic Species run at some point. There's something always so oddly satisfying about running another city/planet into such a massive trade defecit their owner is willing to literally sell you the whole damn thing.

    Hey for a video idea can you do kenshi spectator mode? Like not interacting in the world but just spectating what happens in the wastes between the cannibals or ninjas or creatures, Narrate it like a story as you usually do. This is something I haven’t seen any kenshi youtuber done so far.

    So basically you made a version of Segovia, the smallest plane in the Magic: the Gathering multiverse. Even its largest creatures have a power and toughness of 3/3, where a regular bear on other planes is a 2/2.

    "I'm going to skip the space stage because I hate it" is so bloody true. Even the tribal+ stages lose a lot of the appeal of the first fee, but it really goes off the rails in the space age. Feels like you lose all connection with your species by then

    "Think of the smallest thing you can think of"
    My brain: "A quark."
    "Think EVEN SMALLER"
    My brain: "Uhhh.... Planck length?..."
    "And then think EVEN SMALLER THAN THAT"
    My brain: "Uhhhhh..... um.... Atomic minimum."

    I like the idea of a civilization so obsessed with being small that nations compete not with war, but by trying to find reasons to give each other as much money as possible, not only to minimize their own economy but also to maximize that of their rivals. It's absurd and adorable
