As promised, we bring you a prototype of the microbe editor.

Posted by RevolutionaryGames on Apr 28th, 2013

5/5/13- Update: Version 1.8 has just been released. This fixes some bugs and allows for symmetry in parts placement. You can get it for your OS here.

Last week we took the wraps off of our music collection, promising more goodies would come. Now it's time to deliver.

The latest in a line of prototypes for dealing with the aesthetics and workflow of the microbe editor is now officially yours to explore. Although rudimentary, this prototype will give you a feel for how complex you can make the shape of a cell, and how much more space for structural adaptation there will be in Thrive's microbe stage versus what you may remember from Spore. Microbial gameplay is going to be a full experience, visually, interactively, and technically, and not just a brief introductory stage.

Without further Adieu, here's FunnyGames's cell editor prototype, along with a brief demonstration video from Doggit.

Download the prototype for the OS of your choice.
