Generate your creatures and watch them evolve through the generations!
When you begin, 100 creatures are randomly generated. Creatures are made up of nodes (circles) and muscles (lines). When a creature is generated, a set of attributes are created which define how its muscles move, and when.
Creatures are given 15 seconds to go as far to the right as possible. The top 50% of creatures give offspring, and the other half dies off.
This allows for natural selection which makes creatures converge to go farther and farther over time.
We used Rust for this project since it's lightweight and memory-safe. For physics, we used the physics engine Rapier. For UI, we used egui and eframe.
