I have another silly idea that probably have been done before.
A planet that somehow have incredibly little biodiversy, but with "animals" and multicellular organisms.

Projects Punga: A terraformed world with no vertebrates Last one crawling: The last arthropod
ARTH-6810: A world without vertebrates (It's ded, but you can still read I guess)
Potential ideas- Swamp world: A world covered in lakes, with the largest being caspian sized. Nematozoic: After a mass extinction of ultimate proportions, a single species of nematode is the only surviving animal. Tri-devonian: A devonian like ecosystem with holocene species on three different continents.
Quotes "Arthropod respiratory systems aren't really "inefficient", they're just better suited to their body size. It would be quite inefficient for a tiny creature that can easily get all the oxygen it needs through passive diffusion to have a respiratory system that wastes energy on muscles that pump air into sacs. (Hence why lungless salamanders, uniquely miniscule and hyperabundant tetrapods, have ditched their lungs in favor of breathing with their skin and buccal mucous membranes.) But large, active insects already use muscles to pump air in and out of their spiracles, and I don't see why their tracheae couldn't develop pseudo- lungs if other conditions pressured them to grow larger."-HangingTheif
"Considering the lifespans of modern non- insect arthropods (decade-old old millipedes, 50 year old tarantulas, 100+ year old lobsters) I wouldn't be surprised if Arthropleura had a lifespan exceeding that of a large testudine"-HangingTheif
"Humans have a tribal mindset and it's not alien for tribes to war on each other. I mean, look at the atrocities chimpanzee tribes do to each other. Most of people's groupings and big conflicts in history are directly or obliquely manifestations of this tribal mindset."-Sceynyos-yis
"He's the leader of the bunch You know his Coconut Gun is finally back to fire in spurts. His Coconut Gun Can make you smile If he shoots ya it's firing in spurts. His Coconut Gun Is bigger, faster, stronger too! He's the gun member of the Coconut Crew! HUH!

A planet with low biodiversity I mean. Most of the animals could have very many life stages that fill many roles in nature, and some species may eat their own species because of that. I am gonna plan that project now!
I am drawing the creatures now!

You could name the project after metamorphosis in some way.

Such an ecosystem would need too much synchronization to work.

I am drawing the creatures now! Sounds cool! Make sure to study your planet's physical attributes first, I regretted not doing that for my own project. So this could be like, one phase in the life of the animal could be a zebra, and it eventually morphs into a lion, and they all start out as a mongoose. Very interesting, I cannot wait to see what you come up with.

Looking back on my Permian Island Idea, I'm starting to think that there might be no vertebrates able to colonize an island in Panthalassa, aside from fish (then again, I suppose how distant it is will also affect what can and can't get there). And since there were no flying vertebrates in the Permian, the only things that might live there are insects. Unfortunately, I know nothing about Permian insects (all that I really know is that there were dragonflies and cockroaches).
For my other idea, Antarctica might indeed need to be connected to South America in order to stau warm, but I was thinking of other ways: namely, more CO2 in the atmosphere would keep the planet from cooling, but I also wanted there to be humans in this project: changing just one thing about Earth's past makes it that either humans don't evolve or they evolve differently. I don't want to be a cop out and say ASBs did it, so I was also thinking about maybe having the Circumpolar Current act a little differently and maybe trap heat instead of block it.
I'm not sure if I want to go through with the Cretaceous cave. While cave-dwelling theropods may sound interesting, I don't think I could pull this off.

Antarctica has its own volcanoes...so as long as the circumpolar current doesn't fully form, no domination by ice. (you don't need S.A. though)

@Leaellynasaura72: I saw a different project which essentially turned the planet upside down. While this technically doesn't matter, what he really was doing was reversing the spin of the earth, screwing with currents. One result was that Antarctica had a pretty warm peninsula, though the rest of the planet was mostly ice. While you probably don't want to do something that severe, you could handwave plate tectonics and reconfigure the peninsula.

Finally got my Introduced Species done for my "Squid World" project. This means that I have a rather primitive ecosystem, the only land animals being Woodlouse (Oniscidea Isppods.) What do you guys think? Will be edited if required.
Animalia: - Pharaoh Cuttlefish (Sepia pharaonis) - Decapoda (500+ species) - Annelida (1000+ species) - Nematoda (30+ species) - Tardigrada 100+ species) - Jellyfish (100+ species) - Copepoda (500+ species) - Bivalvia Mollusks (300+ species) - Oniscidea Isopoda (40+ species)
Plantae - Conifers (500+ species) - Moss (10,000+ species) - Algae (5,000+ species)

It seems fine. But those decapods and woodlice are going to spread throughout land and become as abundant as insects. Some will also get pretty big. I just don't see how the cuttlefish will be able to get a foot hold onto land, when crustaceans have superior mobility and water retention.
But hey. Proove me wrong. I wanna see this.

I've always wondered what jellyfish could do if left in isolation, no, Radiata as a whole. Introduce some species from every major clade in a small inland sea along with non-animal plankton and let evolution go nuts. What do you think?

Projects Punga: A terraformed world with no vertebrates Last one crawling: The last arthropod
ARTH-6810: A world without vertebrates (It's ded, but you can still read I guess)
Potential ideas- Swamp world: A world covered in lakes, with the largest being caspian sized. Nematozoic: After a mass extinction of ultimate proportions, a single species of nematode is the only surviving animal. Tri-devonian: A devonian like ecosystem with holocene species on three different continents.
Quotes "Arthropod respiratory systems aren't really "inefficient", they're just better suited to their body size. It would be quite inefficient for a tiny creature that can easily get all the oxygen it needs through passive diffusion to have a respiratory system that wastes energy on muscles that pump air into sacs. (Hence why lungless salamanders, uniquely miniscule and hyperabundant tetrapods, have ditched their lungs in favor of breathing with their skin and buccal mucous membranes.) But large, active insects already use muscles to pump air in and out of their spiracles, and I don't see why their tracheae couldn't develop pseudo- lungs if other conditions pressured them to grow larger."-HangingTheif
"Considering the lifespans of modern non- insect arthropods (decade-old old millipedes, 50 year old tarantulas, 100+ year old lobsters) I wouldn't be surprised if Arthropleura had a lifespan exceeding that of a large testudine"-HangingTheif
"Humans have a tribal mindset and it's not alien for tribes to war on each other. I mean, look at the atrocities chimpanzee tribes do to each other. Most of people's groupings and big conflicts in history are directly or obliquely manifestations of this tribal mindset."-Sceynyos-yis

C.G.! Coconut Gun! C.G.! Co-Coconut Gun! Shoot yourself with a Coconut Gun! HUH!"-Kamineigh

"In Summary: Piss on Lovecraft's racist grave by making lewds of Cthulhu and Nyarlathotep.
Then eat arby's and embrace the void."-Kamineigh
