There’s a little Electronic Arts synergy going on, as the folks at EA Mythic are holding a contest to see who can create the best Warhammer Online creature known as a Squig with the Spore Creature Creator, and upload it to YouTube. The winner will win a free entry into the Warhammer Online closed beta.
If you don’t know what a Squig is, think of a monstrous version of Fizzgig from The Dark Crystal, or check out the pic above - well, it’s a Spore-ified Squig. For the full press release, click “Read more…”.
To celebrate the recent release of the Spore Creature Creator (you can download a free version of the Creature Creator at www.spore.com.) we’ve got a little challenge for you WAR fans! We want you to get creative and put some WAR in Spore. Use the Creature Creator to create your best Squig and use the video tools to submit a video of your creation to YouTube. It doesn’t matter what type of Squig you make, be it a Horned Squig, Spikey Squig, Gassy Squig or one of your own invention, just make sure it’s a Squig!
Once you’ve perfected your masterpiece, send a link to your video to
war-contests@ea.com.
We will announce the winners in next month’s newsletter; all entries must be received no later than July 14, 2008. The best of the best will receive an invitation to our closed beta test (as always, subject to eligibility) so if you haven’t done so already make sure you’ve signed up for a Beta Center account.
Good luck and have fun. We can’t wait to see what you create!
