[Rotten]

After meeting a strange person on the street, you black out. After waking up, you find yourself in a strange white room.
There are no windows, no doors. A computer message informs you that you have no need to eat, sleep, or drink, and will never die- in the room, at least. It then blanks.
You are then presented with a pop-out keyboard and a view of what you are informed is the entire universe. After pausing dramatically for a second,
it zooms in to a single planet, which beyond a small satellite is completely devoid of civilization. You find that with the computer, you can input
commands to the satellite. Though you have no idea where this planet is in relation to your current location, you may be able to use the satellite
to create some form of life that can eventually break you out. After all, you have infinite time...


OK, so this is Yet Another God Game.

Rules:
The satellite you are in control of has certain simplistic commands. For instance, you could input 'create cell', but not 'create human'. You'll have to evolve life from the ground up.
Current available commands will be listed in each update.
You can indirectly control your organism (in a group, other organisms will follow you or do their own thing) to do things. As they gain intelligence, they can accomplish things
   on their own but are harder to control.
You organism can gain energy through various tasks.
A certain amount of energy is consumed each turn.
Excess can be used to buy upgrades for you and the rest of the group
   Upgrades all have pro's and con's. Flagella make you in control of your movement but are vulnerable in combat, vacuoles can store more energy but take up lots of space,
   size increases give you more space but make you more unwieldy and have a limit, etc..
Your eventual goal is to influence your civilization to break you out- so you'll need space travel, curious beings intelligent enough for exploration, etc.

Current Status:

Atmosphere is 50% Carbon Dioxide, 30% Carbon Monoxide, 10% Ammonia, 5% Methane, 3% Water vapor, 2% Trace gases and vapors
Terrain is 80% Rocky wasteland, 15% watery pools, 5% surface lava
Mean Surface Temperature is 66 degrees C (150 degrees F)
Star is a yellow star and has an expected lifetime of 8 billion years
Planet will also be warmed from radioactive materials in the core for another 14 billion years

You control no organisms

There is no other life

Modify terrain is molding the ground itself and creating different materials (dirt, sand, water, magma, etc.)

Create Volcano.
Erupt Magma from Volcano.
Lower Mean height of land around equatorial band.

>You slightly increase the amount of Ozone in the atmosphere.
>You create a volcano and make it erupt. It doesn't erupt very much. Maybe its all the other volcanoes.
> You lower the mean height of the land around the equator. Several volcanoes are flattened. It begins to rain and water fills your newly created trench.

We should decide whether we are going to have a carbondioxide-oxygen cycle or something else like methane.

Also, wouldn't the lifespan of the sun be 10 billion years? I'm not complaining since the Earth is already 4.8 or so billion years old with the sun being at 5 billion or slightly less.

Uh, look up Snowball Earth, I don't think we want to turn our planet into Hoth just yet.

NM, should have done my own research, our arnospheric C2O composition is less than one percent by a good deal

To what exactly do you have a problem with? Everything I've posted is congruent with Earth's current atmosphere.

I edited my post above, I should have done my research. I meant don't decrease it by TOO much, but we definetly want to avoid the fate of Venus.

It doesn't have to be exactly like earths atmosphere, but whatever.

Edit: How about methane? Increase it to make it a gas that life uses in the same way as oxygen and carbon dioxide? Although in order for a methane based cycle, I think we'd need to remove oxygen or lower it by alot, but whatever goes.

[Vertigon]

I assumed we were playing some strange kind of brickbreaker game. Am disappoint. But this thread looks pretty neat. I'll be watching you.

I know, I just figure that using Earth is a good template. I mean, we know it works. Why fix what isn't broken?
