I posted about this last summer. I think it would fit better here now that I've expanded more and wrung my brain of all of its memories of this single video.

Originally, I posted this in r/Spore subreddit, and only one other person seemed to remember it... So it must fit here, no? By the way, this is about the game where you make the funky aliens, not mushrooms.

I remember watching this video called something along the lines of: "Spore in Real Life" in, or at least around, 2015. About the video game Spore, like the title of the video and post implies. So the video was made anywhere between 2008-2015 [2005? 2006? '07? These are all dates when Spore was still in development, and 2005 when it was first announced, it's very unlikely the video was made during those times, but I'll just put them there just in case]. This video was live-action, and involved at least two people. The creators of the video were young, they were either children or teenagers. I think they were all or mostly girls too, if that helps narrow anything down.
I really liked the video and tried to watch it a year or two later, just to find it completely wiped from existence, like it had never truly existed at all. I've scrolled and scrolled, and tried search operators like "before:20XX" to no avail. Woe is me!
Here's all I can remember:
I remember there was a Cell Stage scene where a person was crawling on a wooden floor indoors towards an object to represent & simulate the meat & plants and then some other guy comes and drags them away while they both laugh, the person pretending to be the "cell" is saying "Nooooo!" and laughing while being dragged away.
The next scene I remember:
This one is of the creature editor skit. It shows someone standing with some sort of Halloween costume on that looks like some cheap Party City Grim Reaper costume with a skull mask on and then either someone removes the creature-person's arm offscreen or they just have a jump cut of it gone and then the creature-person freaks out and screams (possibly about their missing arm) while a voice says "[number] DNA", which is a parody/exaggerated version of how it is in the game, because in Spore when you add/remove parts your creature in the editor reacts to it each time, and parts cost a currency called "DNA" They/someone also ends up removing the creature-person's head at some point so then the creature freaks out and again but this time the screams are muffled as the same voice says the number of DNA added to the budget since the head was removed.
This video was similar in looks, theme, and mood to this video:
Hi, I'm an example.
