Create your own creatures to explore online worlds with friends and collect new parts to upgrade your stats and abilities! Complete quests, battle enemies, challenge friends to minigames, or just have fun roleplaying — the possibilities are endless when your imagination is the limit! The core gameplay loop involves constructing creatures to explore hand-crafted worlds and collecting body parts and patterns to further upgrade your creature. You can then use your newly acquired abilities to complete quests to earn cash and re-invest into your creature. If you’re just interested in creating creatures, however, then simply switch over to creative mode and everything will already be unlocked! The creation tool consists of three different modes: ● BUILD: Customize the shape of your creature by manipulating its spine and attaching transformable body parts. Altering your creature then changes its statistics (e.g., weight, speed, health etc.) and attaching certain body parts gives it special abilities (e.g., flying, swimming, biting etc.). ● PAINT: Change the color of your creature’s body and attached body parts, as well as the pattern and texture of your creature’s skin. ● PLAY: When you’re finished designing your creature, you can bring it to life! Traverse lush forests, swim in the ocean or fly high above the clouds — your creature will procedurally animate to adapt to its environment.
