I played my first two games and it was good, after i created a third creature i hit the play button, but the loading took a lot of time and the game did not open, i left it for 15 minutes and still the game did not start, how can i solve this issue?
btw your game is very beautiful and has a bright future in my view.
Thanks for the report! This is a bug causing the map generator to sometimes get stuck. It should be fixed in the current build. Just update and play! :D
i reinstalled the game and it worked, yet i should reinstall the game every 10 minutes to ensure it works.
however this does not annoy me that bad, I am looking forward for the full game release, the game has a good idea, and the demo shows that the idea is developed by a fantastic developer, continue your work, I am sure this game will rise in the full release.
The bug should be fixed though in this hotfix update, so you shouldn't have to restart, reinstall or update anymore to prevent encountering this issue.
There are a lot of technologies used in Adapt which were not present in spore, from grass, lighting, water, physics, etc... So there are definitely higher base-line hardware requirements than spore.
That said, the game is still very much in-development, and a major point of focus moving forward is to include more low-end settings options, in addition to many general optimization improvements.
My pc isn't the best, so I am sure that that's the problem. I hope it comes out on console cause I have an xbox one , I think it should handle the game pretty well. Btw from what I have seen, this game of yours is mechanically much better than spore :)
Optimising your PC might be a good option. I got mine to run half life alyx by updating my drivers, defragmenting my C: drive, and other stuff, but those 2 are the biggest things you can do to make games run better.
As a spore fan, thanks for this ! Here's my first thoughts / feedback after playing a little bit :
In the editor when moving a creature's legs the body start moving to in a weird way which to me makes it a little hard to place the legs correctly
Also it would be nice if we could just close the load / save a creature panel by pressing escape instead of having to click on the button again.
Same thing for that little help menu on the editor, maybe I'm dumb but for my first two games I just didn't understand that the little "i" button was tied to that information. Since it's next to the name I was assuming it had something to do with that, maybe moving it somewhere else on the screen would make it clearer ?
One other thing is the little "i" button that you have to click to get info about what advantages each part give, I think that could be simplified by just showing the same text when the user hovers long enough on the icon. I feel like having to hover, then click on the "i" to open and then click again to hide the info is more than necessary.
Also I don't have the best computer but even with everything set to low I was always under 30 fps.
It was not really clear what I was supposed to do when starting to play and the creature moves in a weird way sometimes.
Lastly the whole "observe" thing is a little unclear to me. Is it just a way to focus the camera on something or does it have more interest than that ? If it's just a camera thing maybe renaming it "focus" / "look at" or something like that would avoid confusion.
Other than that I loved everything I saw ! Music is lovely too.

Will there be any potential detail options/extra coloring abilities?
Possibly. There are no confirmed plans at the moment, but I would like to do some prototyping down the line for more coloring options
like shapeshifting?
Is Adapt going to be available on other platforms or is Steam it?
Initially through Steam. but I'm exploring other PC platforms, as well as Switch porting.
Well the game looks fun but I never buy from Steam. I but from GOG, Itch.io and Humble Bundle when there is no DRM attached. Good luck with sales.
Adapt will also be available on Itch again. Orders are only disabled temporarily.
hey do you still exist?
Yes! Still hard at work. :D
yay its just you seemed not to be o at the time
may be digging just a sugestion
Digging is planned. Come check out the Adapt Roadmap.
kinda like spore
how do i breed?
Before mating, you'll need to increase your relationship with another animal of your species. then you should be given the option to court.
The next update will also feature some improvements to simplify this system. :)
thanks and also i love the game your making and when will flight be added
Flight wont be for a little while, but it is coming! Here's a link to the Adapt Phase 1 Roadmap, if you'd like to check it out. :)
Can you please create mobile version of this game
Sadly due to the game's overhead and scope, there will be no mobile version. Though I do hope to port to Switch eventually.
I do know a game like this called the sapling but this game looks a lot more fun than the sapling
I can't play your game. Because todos load it I need steam but I don't have steam there is no problem with your game.
You should be able to download and play right through itch even without Steam. :)
The game doesn't require Steam to load as long as it's downloaded from itch and not Steam.
yay it's good to know it is possible but does cost money
Nope, you can download and play the demo here completely free, and without Steam. :)
great
thx
You are making my dreams come true.
i cant wait to playyour game it sounds so cool

Thanks very much! I will do my best :D

Now the game is working for few games without the need of reinstalling, I think it's finally solved.
please help i downloaded this on pc and its just files (im new to itch.io) does the files need to be opened in somekind of app?
You will need to unzip the files. You can do this using a number of free zip applications (winRAR, 7Zip, WinZip, etc...)
Here is a link to download 7Zip (The application I typically use). :) Just select your operating system from the list of download links and install:
https://www.7-zip.org/download.html
You could also use the itch.io downloadable app on PC
i am trying to download but its not working
Are you still unable to download? What platform and OS are you using?
i am on pc,a dell inspiron
imma try again now to see if it works no
it finaly worke
dammit
it keeps deleting itself for no reason
If my pc can handle spore no problem, then should it be able to run this game? Because it lags sooo hard I cant play the game.
There are a lot of technologies used in Adapt which were not present in spore, from grass, lighting, water, physics, etc... So there are definitely higher base-line hardware requirements than spore.
