This is a prototype of the Macro-Matic, the latest iteration of my patented "program that picks words and then slams those words together in sometimes pleasing ways" technology. It's a predecessor to some Java applets I wrote back in high school that would describe transformations and growth via randomly-selected strings.
I don't like to post prototypes, but I'm really falling afoul of feature creep here, and I'd really like to know what YOU would like most in this program. What you see here is the barebones proof of concept - it generates a "story" of sorts by picking a character, a size, and an origin story.
I thought about making it more customizable, so that you could enter your own character, species, or pick certain size targets (the largest being Planetary, Celestial, and Galactic). I thought about having a "game" of sorts in there too where you could monitor your growth and maybe even influence the environment (stomp on things, suck up power, etc). Maybe there'll even be transformations besides growth, like shrinking, inflation, or species changes.
But like I said, if I had my way I'd be working on this thing for years and not get anywhere... so I'd really like to know what you guys want most, so I can set goals.

"OH NO! Bluey the Dragon has grown 48 FEET TALL after drinking contaminated soda!" so, you didn't learn your lesson about checking what you're putting in your mouth before you do it? :P
You know, your musing gave me a thought...it would be cool to have a game (even a short tech-demo-ish one) based around exploring a world (even if it's small) after either shrinking or growing, possibly having to do both to solve puzzles. Would probably take a lot of work, though...

Aye - especially given that I draw him with an over-long tail that could easily be used as a weapon, grappling hook, periscope, etc ... http://www.furaffinity.net/view/13175897/
