What Will Wright said at 2:45 has changed the way I look at the night and our planet, I always think how small we are and how that it is possible that there are other animals living in different planets likes ours. So many questions, so very little time :)

i wish they had done more with this game maybe with multi galaxies, i think fur would have been cool. i also would of liked to perhaps been aloud to go on a gas giant just to see thier interpratation.

@GVassao
How do we know Unicelulrar organisms do not have spikes, maybe that's just on our planet? You cannot look at science on our planet and say those rules are the same for everything else in the universe.

I'm agonistic/plural anyway, so I really can't give a damn otherwise.

Ok.
This might be a great game, indeed that is my opinion, but it is not and can't be it's goal to be biologically correct. Unicelular organisms do not have spikes, proboscites, eyes, jet and not any of that cool stuff, with 2 or 3 exceptions. Monera and Protozoa fagocite their "food"- they don't have mouths. And how could an eyed organism have not a brain?!!!
I am a biology student and I gave up trying to link Spore to biology when I started playing it.
Evolution isn't random, even though.

ummm this is to GVassao.....its a game...games arent nesseceraly, REAL. Even if the game designer is trying to make it real, its not all on facts. Wheres the fun in, being a little ball of matter and not moving for a billion years? they want the player to have fun, by giving them these cool little parts.

It's a game dude, where imaginations run wild and where crazy stuffs happen. It may be based from those concepts, but it doesn't necessarily follow them detail-by-detail.

Seriously, I think you're smart enough to understand that.
