Hmm, our microbe stage concepts are pretty different. However, you don't evolve by clicking on attributes, you add stuff to your cell, such as adding a flagella instead of clicking on the "improve speed" button. Not to mention that the microbe and organism editors are separate. Also, I don't remember reading anywhere that you evolve to the multicellular stage by bonding with a different microorganism, I was told by the developers themselves that you evolve to it once you unlock the "gluer" part in the editor and press a button that adds another cell to your organism. The gluer part and the "add cell" button go hand in hand.

You said something about not needing to worry about hunger when the other cells came. You can only eat other cells when you assimilate eaters (from what I've heard). You didn't even mention assimilation. Light-eaters won't be available until more microbe biomes are added, so you might as well be disappointed when the game first comes out if you want to be a plant.

And at the end, you're saying that players won't even be able to choose when to go to the multicellular stage. Choosing when you want to transion is something even Spore got right, so please don't go and limit players' options.

Thanks for clearing that up.I wasn't too sure about the glue thing but it was 11pm so i didn't bother to check. For adding parts instead of sliders i read that it would be a mix of both (Ex. Lung capacity 50%-80% but adding more muscle.) also for the eating part, i went out on 2 limbs and my Belgium-sack so i was mostly guessing i started as a eater.

Ok, ok. I was trying to make a few "corrections", but I suppose I went too far.

I kinda want to try this out...

Here's a few of my ideas for a few races encountered in the game in Space Stage;

Number 1
Spoiler:

Number 2
Spoiler:

I might work on more some other time. Are these good, or at least decent? I don't know, but they're ideas I just had in my head.

Very good, I feel this thread needs to be more active.

We have to make sure gravity affects evolution. I'll tell the others.

Hello guys! This is a first post for me on this forums, however I have been stalking these forums for about two weeks after I head about this project. Being a fan of spore (and an overall Science Fiction fan) this project really hooked me on the first day. 

Anyways, I decided to write a short description on a species that Thrive inspired me to write about. Warning! I wrote quite the wall of text here, so please forgive me :lol:.
Spoiler:
I would've went more into detail with this species, but I felt lazy today. I'm not very smart when it comes to evolutionary stuff *still quite young, hehe*, so some of my ideas may seem a bit far-fetched to you geniuses out there. Oh and the Horkuran Divine Council is the ruling force of that section of the galaxy. I write some short stories about the Horkura. I also to a bit of drawing, but I don't think some of my works deserve to be in such a talented community. I just can't wait for the game to come out, and I admire and applaud to all those who have contributed to the project with the many interesting ideas, suggestions, and concepts!

Nice post: well written, interesting, and in the right thread. Hea.d over to the welcome section and introduce yourself.

OT- woah woah we woah Forummotion, changing up the GUI on us. Looks a lot nicer, and there's no useless emoticon hoard taking up a quarter of the page.

Thank goodness for removing that emoticon wall. My iPad would lag to death trying to display all those gifs (pronounced 'gif' as in 'gift' 'jif' as in the peanut butter by the way).

On the other hand, great post secondkingstons! Welcome to Thrive

The pronunciation of the Graphial Interchange Format of images. I say it's pronounced ''jif' as in the peanut butter, and ~scio says it's 'gif' as in 'gift'. The creator of the format says it's 'jif', but most pronounce it 'gif', so it's a fun, pointless little debate.

The Ponedon are Well for the lack of a better word,ship builders and engineers.They are short in stature stand only up to the waist of a tall human male They resemble earth's own Equus ferus caballus live in a solar system similar to Earth's.They have after being recognized to the galactic community Have built almost all of the bigger warships keeping
The biggest for them selves. Their pride and joy ,the Dinkalon super dreadnought, thus proving them capable engineers. The Ponedon Live in a Monarchy ruled by a queen and her advisers but have three classes of working beings;The "Ponedon of the land: farmers and most merchants they dissipate being the hardest class are still the lowest and are reminded of so; the "Ponedon of the sky o,El Gurta, are the self reliant class being able to seemingly walk on "clouds" and the fastest of all four Ponedon classes It is unknown how the El Gurta are able to walk on clouds but some speculate that their muscle and bone structure is lighter than others; the stongest and most tech reliant The "Ponedon of the Energy" or ,unidon, they are the glue and bones and tendons that hold this race together the relie on robotics to build their ships and weapons but such unidon are rare thats why it's costs so much to build a ship while not even having hands of sorts. 


Ponedon are when compared to the other galactic races almost harmless they rather bake
sweets and garden or play with friends instead of fighting or killing. They believe in the power of "friendship" a seemingly powerful field produced from all ponedon which powers the novablaster a weapon used on the Dinklon But they rather curl up with loved ones and friends.They view all species as friends they loved to be held and hugged the basically treated nice.

The Ponedon when fighting use a lot of treats if they can't passively the aggressor with sweets and being nice and kind they'll blow him up with "friendship" which is guaranteed to make the aggressor kinder if not Novacannon. It has become a joke to the Galactic Consul "if you see a ponedon running at you with a weapon,hug it" Because hugs make Ponedon forget what they were doing thus making them easier to fight (implying you'll want to fight it after you hug it)

I decided to have a little go at creating one of these concept species, called the Inox. There is a lot of text in the spoiler, so be wary.
