(Essentially, this is a rip off/theft/whatever you wish to call it. It is based off of Weaver's "WeaverQuest". I thought the idea was amazing, and WeaverQuest is currently on supposed indefinite hiatus. I apologize if this is rude.)
It is dark here. It has been dark for a long, long time. Your name is Spool, and you are a powerful creature, owning many abilities. You have been tasked with sitting in this darkness for a forgotten amount of time, but your patience is finally beginning to dwindle. You wish to do something, anything, to end this massive amount of boredom.

You only have base essence, which is too basic to even consider being able to make a male human sexual organ, let alone a model of universal physics constructed out of the aforementioned sexual organs! Quite a sad thing, to be sure. What will you do now?

You attempt to make a gas for your atmosphere, but it speeds away from you. You have no idea why it isn't speeding in all directions, if you are in a void. You also have no idea why or how you are standing. Perhaps you should make an body with gravity, or even just an area? You surely have a large canvas to work with.

The flower beings talking to you with the vocal chords you gave it. It begins doing an odd song-and-dance routine, while saying a noise that sounds like "Seymour". You drop one of your thread creatures near it, to see if it eats thread.

You make three creatures: A small, brown, goo-like creature with a thick shell, a resilient green worm thing, and something based off of the earlier green thread creatures. You are unsure of what to call them.

(On essence: You start with nearly infinite Base Essence, but it is only good for creating very simple creatures. Other types of essence are gained as different things happen. No hints.)

I think it's time we stepped up to weather patterns. Can you make clouds or do you have to let those develop naturally? A moon would help to generate tidal patterns, too.

I assume the only stuff we can make without base essence is nonliving material. Put some rocks scattered around for more varied terrain.

You scatter a few rocks around. You're not sure about weather, because your Light appears to not be generating enough heat to evaporate the few water sources you have set up. The creatures can reproduce asexually, so one copy of each should be fine.

Let's make an herbivore, yeah. I'm thinking something simple, but with potential to move up in complexity.
I'm thinking two big mouths, one on top of the other, and a thick stocky body for wrasslin' the plants.
