00:00So what we're going to do is we're going to create something simple. Let's toss out there a tree.
00:04So obviously, you know, you need to have some wood for a tree.
00:08So I'm going to take a big block of wood and I'm going to set that in the wood.
00:13So now we've got the wood in there. Then I'm going to go up here and I'm going to do
00:17something simple.
00:18Let's take a cutout.
00:23I'm going to delete that much of the wood.
00:27So now that I've gotten rid of that, I can go up here and I can grab the same wood.
00:32I can move it around or I can set it down and I can now copy it.
00:36So now I've got to copy it.
00:37So let's go ahead and just put this here.
00:41Let's put another one there.
00:43And now I've got a Y.
00:45Let's copy the Y.
00:47Change the scale real quick.
00:49And we're going to toss out just a few simple things.
00:57like that.
00:58And all I'm doing is I'm just moving around the piece and adding in whatever I feel.
01:02So really, you're just hitting the X and you're just moving around the...
01:05I mean, I can rotate it, I can scale it, I can flip it over, invert it.
01:09So I'm going to go here and I need to find one of the objects because, you know, what fun
01:15is a tree without, well, you know, some leaves.
01:20So now I can just sort of stick a few leaves on here and you have to make this as
01:25sparse,
01:26you know, this is Vegas, so it shouldn't have too many leaves on it.
01:28I feel like I'm watching Bob Ross in action.
01:31Thanks, exactly.
01:31I put some little fluffy crops in there.
01:32Yes, yes, we can, you know, swish, swish, there we go.
01:35I would venture to say this is a happy little tree.
01:38Oh my goodness, this is quite a happy, although it is sparse, but then again, in the desert,
01:41you don't expect too many leaves.
01:43So, obviously, I don't want to put too many leaves out here.
01:46So, what we're going to do is we're going to put another decoration on here.
01:51Actually, let's take a cardboard little bird.
01:54Let's put a bird in our tree.
01:57Actually, let's put a bird face in the other way so we've got sort of little lovebirds going
02:01on.
02:01There's a few different things.
02:04There it is.
02:05I need to grab a link.
02:06So I'm going to grab this link here and I'm going to post that bird there and post that
02:11bird there.
02:14Now, we've got our happy little tree with our birds in it and moving around.
02:18Obviously, this was just a few seconds.
02:20However much you invest in this game, you're going to get back out of it.
02:23The create aspect is an entire level.
02:25We're not talking about just me making a tree.
02:27We're talking about me making a forest.
02:29Me putting things in the forest that are animating, giving you obstacles to move through, creating
02:34your own level.
02:34The team at Media Molecule are some of the most creative folks I've ever seen and even
02:38they say they don't know what can be done with this engine.
02:41Their levels are just there as inspiration for you guys to see what you're going to come
02:45up with and show us.
02:46And I know that the people, once they get their hands on it, are just going to surprise the
02:50heck out of us, I'm sure.
02:51But that actually gets into the share aspect, which we'll be coming more on as we get a little
02:56further into this year.
02:57But you're going to be able to take all of this and put it online and share it with the
03:00world.
03:01Well, it's been awesome to be the master of work.
03:03I think the trees...
03:04I have a feeling as CS goes on, the tree's going to get more and more elaborate.
03:08We're going to have to live.
03:09You know, redwoods and forest trees and everything.
03:11You know, if you want to get redwood trees, just as one last little thing, speaking of
03:15forests, I've got this old tree here, which I can set anywhere.
03:21I can also copy the entire tree.
03:27And now both trees fall over.
03:29Hey, look, the tree falls in the woods.
03:31There's a bear here.
03:33But as you can see, it's easy to exponentially increase what you've created.
03:38Why don't you zoom in and make your guy smile?
03:43There we go.
03:44When I want to publish a level, I can say, well, I'm in California.
03:49I want to place my level in L.A.
03:52It'll appear on L.A.
03:53The more people will play it, the more it's going to expand.
03:56You'll be able to be crazy.
03:58But you probably don't want to get too much of this on the blog, if you know what I mean.
04:03Well, thanks for showing us stuff that we haven't seen yet.
04:06I can't wait to see, even a month from now, at GDC, what you're going to be showing us.
04:10You'll see more at GDC.
04:11You're going to see more heading into the summer.
04:14We're probably going to be doing a public beta, get a few people involved,
04:17and try and expand that out as the year goes on, leading to this fall.
04:21Wow.
04:22Thanks again so much.
