Yeah, I think it's probably a matter of the right mutations not coming along. If the "root" block in the body (every body has one, but it's not marked in any special way) is in that top part of the creature it will never lose that (it's a result of the way the bodies are built). Although, that top part does seem to lean slightly in the forward direction - maybe that helps the locomotion. Hard to say.
In another video, you show us a cheater that exploit bugs in the physic engine. I was thinking this creature vibrate quite fast sometimes to move, almost like the cheater creature, no?
What I couldn't figure out while this thing was evolving, was why it has those structures on it's head.
For a long time they were dragging along the ground and dangling all over the place!
Probably just didn't have enough generations to mutate the structure completely out of the way.

ah that might explain why that chain of blocks just got smaller and smaller.

You could be right. It's hard to tell. This might be a cheater.
