This project is an advanced Artificial Intelligence simulation that has multiple species of animals interacting in a procedurally-generated environment. The traits of these animals can be configured by the player such that they can see the effects of various decisions such as size, fur color, speed, among other traits. Once the simulation begins, players will be able to watch as the ecosystem survives, thrives, or dies due to the choices in species design.
