Species: Artificial Life, Real Evolution (tuxdb.com)

▶

Early adopters rejoice! I've just put Species 0.12.0, the Multithreading Update, up on the Experimental Beta Branch on Steam! 0.12.0 adds multithreading to the underlying game engine, significantly increasing the performance (and Creature Count) of the game on computers with Dual-Core, Quad-Core, Octo-Core or Septendec-Core CPU's. Please note that this is an Experimental Build. It is likely to be less stable and less performant (though still more performant than 0.11!) than the version that will be soon released to all Steam users. You can access the Beta branch by right-clicking on "Species: Artificial Life, Real Evolution", selecting "Properties",then opening the "Betas" branch and selecting "experimental - Unstable Experimental Builds" from the drop down.
At the moment, 0.12.0 adds no features or tweaks: it's the same game, but faster. In addition to the obvious stability work, I will be polishing it in the coming weeks to make the survival strategies and body plans more varied and interesting, as well as see if I can make carnivory more viable.

Species: Artificial Life Real Evolution is an evolution simulator that allows you to create, destroy, observe and tinker with life on it's never ending, harsh march of refinement! Simulated from the very first principles of evolutionary science:

Variation

Every creature is uniquely defined by its genes.

Mutation

Child creatures are slightly randomly modified versions of their parent(s).

Natural Selection

The environment affects every creature in their struggle to survive.

Observe or Guide

Whether you just want to observe, watch and study as the tree of life constructs itself from a single species, or you want to be an active influence on the development of the species in the game, the choice is up to you! Take a hands-on approach by using the nursery, an isolated area where you can tinker with the gene pool to your heart’s content. Use rovers to decide which creatures get to eat today and which ones starve! Create global catastrophes like an ice-age or a world-spanning flood to weed out the most vulnerable species. Or simply sit back and watch the life-and-death saga unfold!

Tell Your Story

However you treat your evolutionary sandbox, we give you the tools to tell it’s story! View every single evolutionary step in detail using the clade diagram, see where each species are living using the satellite map, get a better picture of how varied your gene pool actually is with the web of life, and view every possible detail on each creature using the creature inspection tools.
