Judging by the lack of support for this post, I'll have to stand by my comment. The interface poorly displays a great amount of information; the creators need to play more videogames to understand why.
We see the limits of an upvote/downvote system. My comment is correct, but costs me "points" to say so because I didn't type three paragraphs justifying the obvious.

You were downvoted for two reasons. One, it's not civil. Two, it does not contribute anything to any discussion; it's conversational noise. Explaining what you mean is not "justifying the obvious". It's starting a conversation.

#6Cool info to see interrelated like this, but the constantly shifting arrangement makes it really hard to make any kind of sense out of it, if there are any higher-level patterns to see.
Having stuff move is fine, but if it must, it should move in relation to input from the user - enlarging objects related to the selected one, or making the relation lines more rigidly spaced, that kind of thing. Different shapes for animals and habitats or objects would be good too.

#8I would have liked to see "source" link to more information rather than a link to the photo. And the snapping-back amorphous blob is pretty annoying, I keep wanting to make the whole thing flat with no crossed lines :)

I have to agree... if it didn't keep moving for so long it would be a big plus, for example.

it's almost as if it's a skill game that rewards you with information...
