Evolution Simulation

Evolution Simulation was developed as part of my bachelors thesis.

It is not a game but mainly a simulation. The creatures in the simulation require food to survive and reproduce. Upon reproducing, the childs DNA is randomly mutated, changing its stats slightly.
This simple system is balanced by positive mutations causing higher energy drain and negative mutations causing lower energy drain. Through this the system causes natural selection of worse mutations and therefore causing evolution. You will be able to observe creatures evolving to fit their specific environment.

WASD - Move camera
Scroll - Zoom in/out
Arrow left - Slow down simulation
Arrow right - Speed up simulation
Space - Pause simulation
Left click a creature - follow creature
Right click - stop following creature

Hovering a creature displays their DNA and stats. The FFRM is the food fallrate multiplier and indicates the energy drain of the creature.
