That sounds like the kind of adventures I like to see. I'm going to download both. I hope more people make adventures like these.

Arrrrgh! Even your still-life adventures require C&C! Really time for me to bite the bullet!

Amazing how they require c&c when there's no creatures in them

I own every Spore expansion and I still occasionally get the "Parts you dont have" message >.>

You might have seen already, Rythmear, but I reviewed The Silent Beacon. Great work! I'm definitely checking out some more of your adventures!

Review.

Awesome! I hadn't noticed - I'll read it now

The mission is complete!

let me know what you all think (especially about the fog, I was torn over whether to keep or remove it)

Downloading now... will update when I'm done.

I see both players failed during the timed part. I had no trouble with it during my play testing, but perhaps the timer is too short for slower captains

Yeah - the adventure itself is pretty good, the only qualm I have is that you've got timers that are too fast even for a speed 3 Captain.

In order to make an adventure everyone can play and enjoy, a speed 0 Captain needs to be able to get away.

all right, I may lengthen it in the final cut, but I can't make all my missions beatable for a speed zero captain with no weapons or social skills, Spore is easy enough as it is.

Was the fog too dense? I thought it added to the atmosphere on the ground, but it also obstructed the view of the large structures, and I couldn't decide which was better.

I've created one that I think claasifies as a still life, though it's received some bad press. I'd be genuinely interested in your feedback.

Trouble with Automation

I'm not so sure if dead critters count as 'no critters', but I've also got Contact, which is more story driven.

downloaded, will play in the morning

For reference, if you include Any creatures - living or dead - you don't get the achievement.

There, mission has been edited for all but the most obese of captains. You may still want jump though, terrain can get rough

I'll give it a shot - and report back here when I'm done.
