10 years later: Your first creature

Inspired by one of many farewell posts over the original Sporum, what is (and when you created) your first creature on Spore?

I created my first creature, Vopador when I downloaded the trial version of the Creature Creator back in june, 2008. Here's what it looked like:

I was 14 years old when I made this. Spore brings me so much good, beautiful and sometimes heartbreaking memories. I love this game so much.

    @GruunSalpa Wow, these two creatures are really good, and they also show how you grew as a creator. Congratulations, they're beautiful!
  • I brought Spore on the day of it's distribution and I had already made some Bird-Men (Avis-Sapiens) as my first Spores along with E.T. the Extra Terrestrial. (As for the latter, I lot of people were doing E.T.) Both they're earlier builds are long gone now after uninstalling & reinstalling the game until I used up the times I could reinstall the game ( They had a word for this I don't remember, but it had something to do with anti-piracy.) As for my first two creations, I have originally designed them in the Creature Creator Demo and recall having to rearrange the wings on the birdmen after getting the full version of the game installed. 

    The creature that I ended up first evolving was my Golden Ramtaur here.....

    I have many others to share, but little time to dig them out here is another famous Spore.....

    BTW, I've never been able to complete the game. Working on that right now and I also brought all versions of the game and it's spin off on Steam since I couldn't use my original disk anymore.

    My birdmen are actually called Avis-Simians and I'm known as FUNGUSMONSTER if your trying to find me.

    Hi @FUNGUSMONSTER, I added you as a buddy! I'm playing it these last couple of weeks and adding some people to my game so my Sporepedia could grow a little more.

    I remember when I could get my hands in the complete edition of the Creature Creator. I had great fun playing the trial version, and when I managed to get the full edition it was my favorite thing to play for months!

  • This was my first Spore creation. A weird pink lanky winged creature I called 'Lilly'. I thought it was cute when I made it, keep in mind I was only 7 back then. It's weird to think I started playing 10 years ago. Time flies. 😃

  • When I was 11, I made my first save file. I followed my creature, the Polaris, all the way through from cell life to civilization. It meant a lot to me. I loved dragons back then (still do!) and wanted to make a dinosuar/dragonlike creature. Sadly, that old laptop, along with the save file, got lost through time.


    Thankfully I had made a Sporepedia account. I still had data of my first creation! The Polaris was my only GA Captain at the time, and it was also my avatar there! So I was able to recreate my beloved Polaris many years after their creation. In the new version, I went for a more bird-style approach. It's not perfect, but I still love both versions of the Polaris species and am happy to have been able to remake them.

    oh god i don't even have a picture of it anymore... i called it makoto i believe...

  • It's unfortunate actually, when I was young I decided I was going to go on a depressive rampage and delete all of my creatures. I currently only have creatures I've edited created recently. I'm glad you all still have your creatures!
