I couldn't get it to make a limb for some reason, but it was still pretty cool!
Even though it is not really a game, great entry! Blown away that you managed to make this during the jam. Technically this is very impressive. I feel like one of the most impressive parts is the generation of the animations. Some feedback would be to make the controls a little more intuitive.
This is very interesting! Is amazing that you achieved this in just a weekend! probably you should continue working with this and make a god simulator game or something like that.. i think it has a lot of potential!
I love the technical side of this; procedural mesh generation and (simple) procedural animation is a lot to do in 48 hours. Well done!
Procedural mesh generation is hard for just a weekend. Always wanted to make it by myself!
that is really creepy. i like that. it could have some challenges like those physic constructor games. where the creature has to take a parcour or something, so you have to design different creatures for different tasks.
i really like the idea, anyway theres a lot of work to do a stunning gameplay.
I just made some pretty demented creatures. Haha, that was a ton of fun. The dynamic mesh and animation stuff is really cool!
Wow! This is done in only 72 hours?! Good job! It was fun to play with and I had fun trying to break it but even the most ridiculous designs were able to walk and look more or less natural. I am amazed!

told you i was freaky
Very nice work. Impressive for a weekend for sure.
Great concept and impressive work! I had fun playing around even though i was quite weirded out by the creatures i managed to come up with.
Nice game, reminds me of Spore. If only there was like a goal or something, that would make it lot more fun and made me play it longer. Good job!
Oh wow! This is very creative. I spent a good amount of time playing this, as well as creating some very weird creatures lol I'd definitely say continue working on this; give some more textures, details, sounds, and mechanics. Good work! :D
Creating this in only the span of this Ludum Dare is impressive, and the concept fits the theme well. There's room to improve (limb creation was finicky for me) but this is still an very impressive stab at a really complicated concept.
Great game! It's easy to find bug if we move too much bones, but it's quite fun to see moving our creature.
Animation are well done!
It could be more insteresting if bones control was easier. But good job in this lap of time!
I love this kind of procedural stuff. I'd be happy to play around with a full blown version of this. I hope you expand on it.
Good stuff.
The mind-blowingly amazing parts of the Spore creature creator, made in 72 hours within the Unity engine. I don't think I need to say just how amazing that is.
Nicely freakin' done, this may be the most impressive thing I've seen this particular LD.
hehehehe
nice editor
I wish I could play something with my creation! :)

Mini Submission FAQ
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
CAN I ENTER BOTH EVENTS?: You should pick 1 event, whichever you think it’ll do better in. If the idea is strong, and everything plays well enough, you can go Compo. If you’re a perfectionist, and would prefer people to play a more polished game, do the Jam. Historically, more games are entered in the Compo, but with more people and more time, Jam games have the potential to be better (that doesn’t mean they are). Many solo participants do enter the Jam.
If you made 2 games, unfortunately, the website doesn’t support multiple submissions per user. To submit your 2nd game, you will have to make a 2nd account. Only do this if you made 2 games. Alternatively, if one game is better than the other, then consider just entering the better game.
CAN I KEEP WORKING UNTIL THE DEADLINE?: Yes! Immediately after the 48 or 72 hours, we do something called Submission Hour. As the name suggests, it’s an extra hour for you to package, upload, and submit your games. If there were catastrophic issues trying submitting your game, or you misunderstood how submissions work, that’s okay. It happens. We’re flexible. If you need advice, check with the folks on IRC. If you need an admin, get in touch.
CAN I KEEP WORKING ON MY GAME?: Oh definitely! You should! But for the sake of judging, keep the Compo or Jam version around. You can include a link to the Post-Compo/Post-Jam version of your game on your games page, but sure your main links are the original version.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate at least 20 games to improve your visibility (Coolness).
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crashes, win condition, or tiny bugs after the deadline. In a sense, this is like “porting” to support more players. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just fixing mistakes you should have caught had you been better rested.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
Good game!
