  • "playground" room:
     • multiple creatures can be simulated
     • world state persists
     • can clone and delete creatures
     • new: toggle energy consumption (creatures can die when energy depleted; users can feed them)
     • new: toggle visibility of neural network
  • "evolution" room: only-brain mutations – preserves body design in evolution
  • water level setting no longer shared between "playground" and "evolution" rooms

  What's new in the version 5.2

  Updated on May 19, 2025

  • improved simulation
  • f9: the stick colors match gene letter colors, making it easier to link genes to phenes
  • f9: less diversifying crossover
  • sharing screenshots available
  • sharing a genotype as a *.gen file instead of a plain text string
  • the app can open *.gen files and import selected genotypes
  • support for cursor keys/pad navigation in UI
  • resolved missing background image and "pink water" visual glitch on specific devices
  • properly scale width of sticks
  • improvements in the UI

  What's new in the version 5.0.28

  Updated on Oct 1, 2023

  The "f1" genetic encoding:
  • Adjusted default mutation probabilities
  • Improved the behavior of the "Cc" and "Qq" modifiers
  • All modifiers now allow to better cover the full parameter range
  • Improved mutation of modifier sequences – more allowed values of parameters, because modifiers are no longer sorted and do not cancel out
  
  The "f4" genetic encoding:
  • Major improvements, rewrite
  
  GUI and app:
  • Numerous improvements
  • More convenient VR settings
  • Compatibility with new Android devices
