MindSurge Entertainment (www.mindsurge.net) in partnership with Ray Pingree has announced the opening of the Worlds First MMOE. MMOE? What is that you ask?............Massive Multiplayer Online Ecosystem. This game is also the first of its kind with all the graphics in game made by the players!!! If you think that others have made bad graphics then we invite you to test your skills and make your own critters to take over the land. The Graphics of the game are only as good as the players make. Make sure to visit http://www.googrid.com to get the open beta download About GooGrid: GooGrid is an online ecosystem where animated critters designed by players crawl from one screen to the next across the internet, fighting, eating plants or each other, and reproducing. New players can make a critter in seconds with the "critter wizard" and the "random beetle" graphics, but the real fun of the game is using "advanced species design" mode and making your own animated custom critter drawings. Each species you design can have up to 21 animation sequences. Each sequence corresponds to a critter behavior, such as eating, fighting, sleeping, walking, running to attack, or running to escape. You can choose from 26 different body parts (such as brain cells, body armor, sabre teeth, and hooves) and 28 different strategy parameters (such as prey filters, frustration handlers, group defense strategies, and prey/food supply management). Even when you're offline, your creations can be crawling around on other players' screens. Once you release a species, it has a life of its own. Other players may choose to collect a specimen of your species if they like it. This saves it for later and counts as a vote towards the most popular species list.
