Christ, 2Boy have knocked this out quickly, you may think. But no, it’s nothing to do with World of Goo. It just rhymes with it. THQ have a forthcoming World of Zoo game, and to introduce us to its land of animal fun, have released this animal creator demo where you get to create and distribute your own cuddly, furry friends. By which I mean, animals, not John Walker. You can get it from here. Alternatively, here’s some I made earlier…
This is, at least, relatively practical and where the selection pressure against being bright red will lead the Bengal in a few thousand years of hunting.
(It won’t. The selection pressure will lead it to being extinct. Man!)
This is somewhat less practical, but it’s not like anyone’s not going to see a Giraffe anyway.
Something like 98% of koalas have Gonorrhea Chlamydia. I thought one should look like it actually has it. And has earned it.
My take on the creation kit? A marvelous way to totally confuse your children what animals look like.
Hey, our koalas don’t have Gonorrhea!
They do, however, shit everywhere, which is annoying.

@Scalene Isn’t that what gonorrhea does to things?
report
I believe it’s chlamydia that is rampant among the koala population. And I have a perfectly good reason for knowing that, not involving any shady incidents.
report
A likely story…
My kid’s going to love this later. I’m going to be in a corner crying woefully to myself as I lose the computer yet again.
report
Ah, getting my STDs mixed up. Typical.

Yeah, it’s difficult to tell the difference when you have most of them at once.

What’s the next one ?
World of Boo, Foo, Moo, Poo, Woo ?
report
I would certainly play World of Poo.

The next one is a user created content game: World of You.

Creature editor released first? Sounds like Spore. Hopefully this game will be fun though.
Well, Spore was fun… for three days. Then suddenly all the fun leeched away and I got thoroughly fed up with it for some reason. Can’t really put my finger on why.

Theme Hospital 2: World of Flu
Please?
report
@Pie21
I would buy that.
report
World of Two: Repopulating the World
report
I would play World of Woo. Surely it would feature hundreds of tooled up Chow Yun Fat’s diving through the air and slow motion doves.
report
World of Woo would feature ladies on balconies and handsome suitors, surely.
report
Please please please be a spore that’s fun to play
report
I don’t think there’s going to be any similarity to Spore outside the creature creation.
This is the work of Blue Fang, who are behind my beloved Zoo Tycoon, so I was looking forward to WoZ being pretty-much-that with a neat cel-shady look. However, it would appear they’ve gone and done a Wii-friendly “animal care” type of thing.

I managed to get world of blue running on my old PC, but the quit button is hidden most fiendishly.

World of Moo: Cow Simulator
report
Actually, they’re working on World of Shoe. I’m on the closed beta.
Unfortunately, I’ve not been impressed. It’s a load of cobblers.
report
@ Alikchi:
That’d be an awesome expansion pack for yesterday’s Farm Simulator german gamey thingy.
report
Alikchi says:
World of Moo: Cow Simulator
Or the German version “World of Shaaazooo”
report
I totaly miss the point of this demo. What it is this game about?
Anyway World of Who will be the next rithm game ever with all the songs from the notorious brit band
report
I’ve got a strong preference for World of Jew.
report
World of Pew Pew?
report
The brave and butt-kicking Boo would like to inform you that he would be most enthusiastic for the opportunity to chew on the ugly face of evil in World of Boo. Hamsters everywhere, rejoice!
report
World of Loo wouldn’t be bad…

Are you lot auditioning for RPS headline writers?
