E.V.O: Search for Eden

E.V.O: Search for Eden is a Nintendo Super NES game released in 1993 in North America. It is a single player, action RP platform game.

In E.V.O they start off with a movie intro which tells the character that the sun is the father of our universe and Earth (Gaia), the child of Sun, wants a champion. The main character starts off as a fish in the "The World Before Land" era in the sea (obviously). Gaia, a beautiful maiden, guides you through the game.

In the starter level you can get to understand your controls and swim around a bit. There a jellyfish nearby. Once you get closer the jellyfish will talk to you saying the world is ruled by the saying "survival of the fittest." It is kill or be killed. From that moment the player can attack jellyfish and gain experience points. Getting enough experience points can "level up" the character: you evolve a part of the body to gain strength and overcome more difficult enemies.
In each level you have seaweed and shrimp (it looks like shrimp to me) to replenish your health.

^ These are screenshots from the next era where land starts to arise. Its essentially the start of the dinosaur era. I already evolved my little guy with most of the evolution choices. Honestly, you have to grin a lot to evolve.
Its kinda like pokemon except you are the pokemon trying to survive the ever changing pokemon world.



Here is a layout of the first level, the starter/introduction. Im not the best at Illustrator so its sketchy. Ha. :/  I wanted to use Photoshop but we were required to use Ill.
