The Idea:

• To create a “self-sustainable” digital ecosystem consisting of plants, herbivores, and carnivores.

Goals:

• Food Chain
  • Plants
    • Idle
    • Small Size
    • Eats Nothing
    • Reproduces 5 of itself every 5 seconds
    • Has a lifespan of 30 seconds
  • Herbivores
    • Medium Speed
    • Medium Size
    • Eats Plants
    • Reproduces 3 of itself every 10 seconds
    • Has a lifespan of 1.5 minute
    • Starves every 10 seconds
  • Carnivores
    • Slow Speed
    • Large Size
    • Eats Herbivores
    • Reproduces 2 of itself every 20 seconds
    • Has a lifespan of 1 minute
    • Starves every 7.5 seconds
• Creature Characteristics
  • Creatures of the same species bounce off of each other
  • Creatures target their food if they get within a certain distance of it
  • Creatures grow when they eat and shrink when they starve
  • Change design from circles to actual creatures
