Artificial Stupidity

Welcome to Artificial Stupidity: The AI Genetic Evolution Sandbox!

Dive into a world where species evolve, survive, and form ecosystems, unlocking hidden layers of complexity and creating complex species behaviors. Are you ready to witness the marvels of adaptive behaviors and compete against other players in a grand multiplayer ecosystem?

Create and train your own species thanks to the power of AI Neural Networks (NN) and natural selection.

Current .exe is still an early prototype, but the AI is already working.

Features that Await:

• 🕹️ Polished gameplay and progression.
• 🦎 Improved graphics (Procedural species & environments)
• 🌍 Ranked multiplayer arena. 
• 🚀 Progression unlocked genetic power-ups.

  
  

Game mechanics:

Species are composed of individuals. Each individual has his own AI neural network brain and genetics. Your task is to create and train your species by managing the environment and the ecosystem.

Produce curated genetics to upload and compete in the master server, where the oldest species populate the leaderboard.

• 🌱 Start from Scratch with random genetics.
  • 🧠 The bigger the initial population, the better chance of strong individuals.
  • ⚖️ The more layers and neurons, the harder the species to train, but also  more possibility for intelligence. Default values are easy to train.
• 🍕 Individuals need to eat in order to survive and refill stamina.
  • 🍏  Green fruits for vegetarians.
  • 🍖 Other species for carnivores.
• 🤼 When a carnivore touches another individual of another species, he will try to attack and eat his prey, but the outcome of the fight depends on the stamina of the involved individuals.
• ❤️ When two individuals of the same species touch, they will reproduce if they have enough stamina. If the total number of individuals of the species is below the minimum population, the oldest individuals will be forced to reproduce.
  • 🧬 When a new individual is born, its DNA is inherited from his parents, but  you can control the chance of GENETIC MUTATION with the slider to allow new behaviors to appear in the species.
• 🚧 Individuals die when touching an obstacle.
