There is this pretty interesting game coming out from Electronic Arts called Spore which the channel is using in conjunction with an upcoming show about how humans and other species have evolved over the course of their respective existences – how they are formed, survive or die off. The program uses EA's very complex graphics engine in the show to get across some fascinating ideas from evolutionary biology in a fun and straight-forward way. Some really interesting stuff.

EA has released the “Creature Creator” – this app lets you jump-start evolution and build your own creature for the game -- and the “Creator” makes it easy to share animations of your creation on YouTube.

As for my creature, his name is Monty, he likes to party. He likes to flip, snarl, and dance every once in a while. Click below to check out his special talents.

To find out how to create your own creature go to Spore.com for more information.
