Hey there, I don't know if I'm in the right place or not, or how I would go about this, but I had seen the Polycount fighting game contest and really like the level of skill and range of styles, and was wondering if I could suggest a contest/collab theme? I guess I could introduce myself first; my name is Tyler Rhodes, and…
I could imagine a life simulation kind of game where you explore a crayon environment and watch these creatures interact with eachother. Maybe you could even play as one of the animals, and hunt others down for survival. OR, here's an idea: What if each level was you playing as a different animal trying to survive the…
My idea was to have something like doodle or die where you evolve the creatures and then afterwards have them "live" in some kind of 3-d world, but have the creatures be goofy 2-d animals, just like the animation. So something like this http://www.pintgames.com/free-games/20248/Draw-Your-Cartoon-Character.html or this…
That video was really interesting. I see your point though, education is the purpose, and a very good one at that. Also I just checked out that doodleordie game, it's awesome. XD I have several ideas floating around in my head. I'm starting to form something really cool but it's so loose right now. I'll just brainstorm…
Ha, thanks! Yeah, the actual process of getting the drawings is more interesting in itself than the animation, as the kids begin to take the game personally and exhibit 'real' evolutionary behavior, or go through various mini-phases of human society and the human condition in the course of a few minutes, which is pretty…
Not an animation really, I just thought you guys would like to springboard off from the 460 or so creatures and run with it, making some 3-d versions. GIANT version here https://dl.dropbox.com/u/59922961/tyler%20rhodes%20evolution%20phylogenetic%20tree%20full%20size%202011.jpg These are all of the together, and I can get…
I don't really know what you mean, but the file you described is this maybe you got your files confused or something? I dunno, but none of the plants/animals have scientific names, although I have named some of the animals simple things in my skeleton sometimes so I can remember and keep track of them (fathead, lumphead,…
The cave animation can be thought of as 'both'. Its a sort of alternative history, in that every group starts out exactly the same and stays the same(until the final 2 generations), but it also follows the same generational epochs, so you could also think of all the creatures inhabiting the same planet at the same time,…
Thanks! I've recently gotten more evolution drawings, starting this group where each other group left off, meaning the tree is now one 'tree' bigger! I also did some predator/prey specific evolutions, as well as getting them to evolve some plants. Here was the plant tree if anyone felt like doing something with plants. In…
Lancer and I were talking about a bunch of ideas but I think I scared him off, haha. I think he sees things more your way, whereas I wanted something more in line with doodleordie, or draw something where people's drawings are built off of one another and only then do they come alive in some way. I think you all are only…
