Trivia[]
- Whenever the player attacked, there will be the "d'oh!" sound, like Homer Simpson makes.
- There are also scripts for the tribe, city, and civilization stages. These stages can be restored by -spacemode, -civmode, -citymode and -tribemode. Space stage game mode seems to not be working, but other game modes work pretty well.
- Interestingly, there are models for the Aquatic Stage hidden in the game's folders.
- GonzagoGL was the final gameplay prototype developed for Spore.
