| As Spore creators, especially on GAC, we all have made many adventures. A large number of those adventures are unfinished and you haven't gotten time to work on it. Since you can't share them on Spore, why not share them here? Tell us your unfinished adventures, and say why you never finished it! I used one of my best unfinished adventures as an example, but it's taking up, like, half the page. (What can I say? I like to write!) So go ahead and click on the Spoiler button to see it. - Spoiler:
My best unfinished adventure: The Bowersteam Raiders! I used Andeavor's Bowersteam set to make a steampunk seaside town called Bowersteam, which had been visited by a pirate band. When you find them, it turns out the pirates are actually aliens that had to land on this planet because their ship was on low fuel. They escaped on an emergency raft to this town. Now they are building a steampunk airship to fly off to the island where their spaceship is. They just need one last part to finish the airship: A gear of a very unusual size. You are sent out into the town to find this gear. You find a gear that fell off the clock tower, and what do you know, it's the right size! The airship is finished and you get to ride in it for a while. Soon, you arrive at a small inlet called Bowersteam Bay, where the pirate's ship is found in the water! The mechanic says the ship will take a few minutes to get in working order, but just at that moment, the intergalactic police force from the pirate's home planet arrives! They say that the pirates are under arrest for endangering a less-advanced civilization. So you have to fight off the police without killing them (because they're your friends! You don't want to kill your friends just because they're police officers!) and hold them off long enough for the ship to be fixed. When it is functioning, the pirate's ship takes off with all the crew members. With no business on this planet, the police leave to persecute the pirates. The end.
I never released it because my %@&€!ing computer broke and deleted all my unshared creations. | |

| I'd love to make a bit in an adventure where you're in a blimp-like airship that has glass walls and floors, with a great view of some city... that sounds neat gelo | |

Some are good, But i get easily bored. I've discovered that if I work on one adventure for too long, I get bored and stop making it. Which is terrible! So I always try to keep at least two adventures that I am working on, and try to get them done ASAP so I don't get discouraged. Once I am done with the story and all the hard parts, then I start releasing some of the props and working on the small details such as greenery and scenery. Releasing props before the adventure gets you lots of good comments, like "omgf this looks awezomme i cant wait 4 teh adventurezz!" So far it has turned out to be an effective strategy. I forgot to mention, once you are pretty sure that you are going to release the adventure and not let it die, you should release a sneak-peek creation, like one of your props that reveals what the adventure may be about. | |

i have over 100 There's nothing wrong with that. It means you have more stuff to work off of! And you're lucky, because your unshared content isn't constantly deleted like mine is! Oh, and by the way, I made this thread so that people could SHARE their unfinished adventures! Not so that people can say how many they have! So start sharing! NOW!!!!!! | |

That reminds me... I made an adventure like that once. It was a puzzle adventure, where you were captured by the Grox and you needed to escape the research facility where they were keeping you. I only ever completed the first room, but the idea was that you would look for clues around the room and assemble some kind of bomb to get through, and there would be similar puzzles along the way. I never finished it because I was out of ideas, and I later realized that adventures involving the Grox never seem to turn out well. | |

| I created almost forty GroxQuest adventures! I never shared them because I realized that people might get sick of them before I got to the climax. So I deleted all of them and started over. I've shared ten of my NEW GroxQuest episodes (few of which have gotten more than ten plays) and these ones are good quality. If only people would actually play them! | |

It's a huge mistake to delete your adventures, even if you think you may never use them. Who knows, you may change your mind. Also, it may give you some ideas for future adventures. Besides, they're doing no harm by sitting around in your unshared creations. That brings up a totally off-topic point: Why aren't there separate folders in-game for shared and non-shared creations? That would be so convenient. | |

Yeah, but then it doesn't order your creations by the time they were created. So it's really inconvenient in finding your recent creations that were shared. If they made separate folders, it would be so much easier. | |

Oh, come on, Glass... everyone makes mistakes. They just haven't gotten around to fixing their mistakes. Besides, Maxis is super busy with Darkspore anyway. | |

| Man, I can't even COUNT how many adventures I've started and gave up on or thought about starting but never got around to.
A great example: My Galahan War storyline. While not a single GA, it was started back in February with the teaser, and has been neglected since. It'll be done someday, but when exactly... | |
