Introduction

Metacore was a well-known but short-lived developing group for Creatures. Started in early May 2004, they started work on a long forgotten project called the Mermaid Caves.

History

After the first week or so, they had renamed the project Aquatilis Caverna, and had recruited a fantastic 3d artist, BloodLuvinGirl. It took her about a month to finish the first two room backgrounds, including a plethora of new critters, plants and toys, and then the rest of the team started work on the coding, mapping, and testing aspects of the project.

Soon a number of new projects sprang up for Metacore, including Don's The Habitat, a new game similar to Creatures, and a new Metaroom called Elysia. Elysia was soon abandoned in favour of The Habitat, which became its second most important project.

With a few new critters, plants and toys done, an alpha version of Aquatilis Caverna was released to the members of Metacore. After that alpha, more members were accepted into the fold, and this led to Metacore's downfall. Too many ideas and conflicting opinions slowly caused the projects to ground to a halt and the forums to grow less and less active.

Soon afterward the forums went down, and the Aquatilis Caverna project was thought by some to be beyond hope of completion. This signalled the end of Metacore, and the 'Metacorians', as they were sometimes known, still lament over the once-enthusiastic group.

Finished Projects

Metacore never finished any of their projects, but Metacorian Liam has taken it upon himself to finish Metacore's most important project, Aquatilis Caverna. You can find a beta version at Creatures Caves.
