Evolution

About this game

Use joints, bones and muscles to build creatures that are only limited by your imagination. Watch how the combination of a neural network and a genetic algorithm can enable your creatures to "learn" and improve at their given tasks all on their own.

The tasks include running, jumping and climbing. Can you build the ultimate creature that is good at all of the tasks?

Note: If you experience some lag you might be able to improve the fps by lowering the population size in the start menu.

Ratings and reviews

Really cool, but I would love a game mode where the creature not only learns how to use its body, but also over time has its body change in the event the map has a wall, it would evolve, all the while chasing after food which has a hunger meter, and of course, only the survivors go on to pass down the traits, although they only have so much energy, and can only grow so much. I know that might be a lot to ask, but I wanna be able to make a simple worm, and comw back hours layer to see what I get.

I like the game, but it has several flaws, mostly in the fact that sometimes they get into "inch wars" where the only directive is to make it farther and as some don't work as intended they will only go farther than the others and stop, which results in unproductive mutations. Also sometimes the muscles spaz out and go shooting off glitching to the top and because it got the furthest it gets that passed on, eventually it they all glitch, but other than that it's fantastic.

AMAZING game! Fascinating! Exciting! Fun! Needs improvements! This game is wonderful, however it's lacking one or two things. You see, in real life, some creatures can fly and some can swim. I think there should be the option of wings and fins along with sky and water. Of course, the original area (for ground creatures) should be included as well. The other addition is which ways the joints can rotate, as seen in real life with knees and elbows. Other than that, amazing game!
