[quote=@ClocktowerEchos][@Vordak] I'm just curious on how would we set it up, something like text book or documentary style?[/quote]

Most likely; however, the inclusion of other formats, such as diary entries, bureaucratic documentation, letters and ect. is also encouraged, as long as it helps forward or deepen the narrative. 

[quote=@ClocktowerEchos]And how exactly would we do stuff like natural formations and the rise of animals then the rise of intelligent life?[/quote]

It's supposed to be a pretty brief part, as the sapient civilization will be the main focus. Still necessary though, as it gives much needed background on the conditions it will be developing in. For the most part, i think it should be made somewhat vague and malleable, as to not greatly restrict the future actions of the players. It's just going to be there - thingd like continents, oceans, a few mountains and volcanoes, dinosaurs and dragons. Pine trees.

[quote=@ClocktowerEchos]Would everyone be the same species or would there be multiple races from different evolutionary backgrounds?[/quote]

You decide. I'm not the GM; there is no GM, only the players themselves. But yeah, that'd be swell.

[quote=@ClocktowerEchos]How about the stuff like missing links, misinterpreted events and religions?[/quote]

I don't think there would be a problem with incorporating those into the roleplay. Or have you concerns about it that i may have missed?

[quote=@ClocktowerEchos]Could there be life on other planets not on the one we're making?[/quote]

Well, i'm not one to disallow that, but i think it's best that the majority of the effort is concentrated on one single civilization.
