Autonomous Simulated Living Organism

I’ve just completed my first applet game, which is somewhat of a simulation more than a game:

Comments welcome and invited!

nice idea!
:smiley:

if the chosen values are missing (or not in range?) the applet fails to load. Perhaps you could check that and show up an error message or let the ‘player’ choose them from inside the applet?
A slider to control simulation speed would be cool

A slider! That’s a great idea, I should have thought of that. The speed is hard-coded right now because I was afraid the simulations would be rough on slower machines.

I’ve heard reports of problems on Firefox – the dimensions of the applet are different in Firefox somehow. Anybody know anything about that?

I havent tried that on other browsers, but on my FF it works really fine.

I enjoyed your simulation :smiley: Could we have a stats page for each mutation listed when the simulation ends? i.e. list births, deaths etc for each mutation.
