TED: Will Wright demos "Maya for 8-year-olds"


200703091259 SimCity and Sims creator Will Wright is showing his new project called Spore, "a game which simulates the complete history and future of an alternative universe populated by incredible creatures."

He shows how easy it is to create a 3D creature using body parts menu. It's like building a Cootie bug, but you have many more options and control over what it looks like and how it behaves. It looks really fun, and once you put a creature together, you can see how it moves and fights. He says the process of making a critter is like "Maya for 8-year-olds." Link
