Mr. Ugly Arms - Evolved Virtual Creature

This creature is from a population evolved for the ability to traverse a rough terrain (the same dark brown terrain shown in the video).

The video shows the best individuals from all 501 generations in rapid succession, following by showing the final best creature in action on its own and then many copies of it at once.

This creature was evolved on the PC of Chris Hebbern. Chris has kindly donated CPU time to this project.

@StuartHaitchXbox Agreed. Not the most aesthetically pleasing one I've seen.

But look, it's generations ahead of the "rolling worm" in someone else's high quality presentation; this thing WALKS. I'd love to see the Ugly climb simple objects. Bet it could.

alot of my creatures seem to be turning into this one. It's a snake, that tapers in cube size. The large cube seems to be the push block while the "head" seems to guide where it lands.
