'''Lifandi''' ([[Wikipedia:Icelandic language|Icelandic]] for "alive") was a community project to build a completely new game along the lines of Creatures, consisting of only [[Wikipedia:Free content|Free content]].

It was planned to use and showcase [[openc2e]] as the underlying [[engine]].  It was intended to be primarily built around a main world, similar to [[Creatures 2]]'s [[Albia]], rather than a [[Creatures 3]]-style collection of smaller [[metaroom]]s.

The project produced several design documents, drawings, and a technical demo.  It stopped receiving contributions around 2008.

Some elements planned to be part of Lifandi included:
* Three or more new "primary" breeds, the Kirin, Tzarlith, and Fents
* A large wraparound world with multiple underground levels.
* A pervasive, robust and flexible world ecology, including seasons, day/night cycles and weather.
* Two distinct modes of play:
** Play Mode - offering specific challenges with set goals and obstacles.
** Sandbox Mode - an open free play setting without any rules.
* Realistic creatures, in both behavior and biochemistry.
* Expandable - prebuilt extension areas in game for 3rd-party rooms and add ons.
