Spore Chicken Robot Mash Up
May 19, 2009 by srfto
The mysterious Spore WTF website is revealed, as Maxis announces down loadable content for the Spore Galactic Adventures expansion from the minds behind Robot Chicken.
Robot Chicken co-creators Seth Green and Matt Senreich thought of a special campaign for Spore Galactic Adventures, which was handed off to their writing team to add in what is known in the business as “the funny”. The special campaign will be available for free on June 23rd when the expansion launches.While the announcement is a bit vague on what to expect from the new adventures, the writing team mentions planetary rest stops, man cannons, and banana monkey wars, those are the three core elements of its successful science fiction game. One comment from the writing team,
“We’re big fans of Spore, so teaming up on Spore Galactic Adventures was a natural fit and so much fun for all the guys at Robot Chicken,” said Seth Green, co-creator of Robot Chicken. Co-creator Matt Senreich continued: “We’re all gaming geeks, so when the Spore guys said they had an alluring proposition for us, how could we say no? Instead of creating absurd worlds with toys, this gave us the opportunity to create literally anything we wanted as gamers. Geek moment. We think that RC fans will love the pretty random and absurd adventures we created and we can’t wait to goof around with the ones the fans create.”
Another project being worked on is the project “Titan Maximum”, a take off on the 80’s giant robot cartoons like Voltron that’s due to begin airing in September. Robot Chicken producer/writer Tom Root explains:
” There were always teams of extraordinary young people with the fate of the universe in their hands. In reality, that would end terribly. The last thing you want when giant monsters attack is a bunch of teenagers in charge of defending you. ‘Titan Maximum’ is about what would really happen if a team of idiot kids was in charge of a six-story-tall robot.”
We will find out on September 19.
