The Evolution Game is an idle game where you can watch creatures learn to survive in this small world (:wink:).

We use artificial neural networks as brain for the creatures. The creatures learn how to act in this environment by moving around and eating food. Evolutionary algorithms will breed new creatures and generate descendants that are most fit for survival.
This version does not provide user interaction. The recommended way to enjoy this game is by using follow algorithm:
1. Take a beer
2. Look at the marvelous creatures in the center of the screen
3. Read the achievements your creatures have to accomplish
4. Open another LD game, play it and give them a rating
5. Come back to this screen and look at what your creatures have learned
You can use the graphs at the bottom to analyse the population of creatures. Most of the time, we just like staring at the screen :nerd: and look at the different kind of survival strategies the creatures are trying.
