This post is most definitely not for everyone. However, if you have ever considering playing god, messing about with evolution, or creating you very own life form (and let's face it, we all have, haven't we?). Then this is for you.
You can create a "creature" from a set of body styles and feeding characteristics and set it loose in a virtual environment (carnivorous for me please). There appears to be a lot of things that can happen: your creature could encounter another and a life struggle would ensue. Of course, the outcome would depend on the physical traits you have endowed your animal. The system emails you with how your foundling is getting along.
For the next version, I would hope they would add a "follow" camera, allowing one to see one's creation in action. Not all the time, perhaps limited to encounters or feeding (mating?) events.
Will I become reluctant to check my email for fear of receiving the dreaded "You creature has been eaten" email?
You can thank Stumble Upon for this contribution.
