So, someone posted this game in a thread yesterday and I'm hooked.

Basically, you create (or just randomly generate) a few line organisms and watch survival of the fittest at work. "Genes" like colors, lengths, angles, etc. are passed on from organism to organism.

I recommend changing the mutation percentage setting in the parameters to 0.01% for best results, otherwise evolution happens a little too quickly for organisms to play off of each other.

Picture related: my game after a few dozen generations. Basically, some immobile green and blue plants with decent defenses and small mobile creatures that seem to have been bred to attack them.
