Everything had multiple PAIRS of eyes, front legs, wings, if I recall correctly. I imagine that they would like to explain this as coming from a common ancestor, but it occurred in so many different types of species that this stupid and pointless feature would have had to survive simultaneously in every type of animal in the world during all the millions of years that they differentiated from some common ancestor that had a useless feature, for some reason, in the first place. Oh, and all the competing lifeforms that didn't waste valuable resources on redundant parts (that add no functionality) would've been more successful and beat out all of the useless, extra-legged animals easily, or at least a majority of the time. There couldn't be a "planet-wide" reason for poor design, it doesn't work that way. Nature doesn't get "cool ideas" the way a graphic designer does.
Also, the flying things had fins on their heads that would've broken their neck if they turned their heads while flying.
