The Spore Creature Creator is going 2-D! Maxis announced Spore™ Creature Creator 2-D today. It’s a new Flash application where players experience an all new take on the original 3-D Spore Creature Creator. Now available online for free at www.spore2d.com, players can create a creature from scratch or import a creature from the Sporepedia.  Once players have created their 2-D creature, they can embed it onto their social networking pages, and share it with friends via email.

“Spore Creature Creator 2-D offers players a brand new way to express their creativity and share their creatures as it can be played by anyone with internet access. The clean art style and intuitive point-and-drag functionality makes it easy for creators of all ages to get in on the fun. It’ll be interesting to see how players use this new creative application.” Caryl Shaw, Sr. Producer of Spore Creature Creator 2-D.

Spore Creature Creator 2-D features the full suite of more than 250 body parts, including limbs, eyes, feet, heads, and fun accessories like antlers and wings. Once players create their ultimate creature, they can play with them in the Spore Creature Trainer mini-game. Once complete, players can easily send their friends an e-card of their creature from the spore2d website.
