Green - Evolved Virtual Creature

This creature was evolved with 3DVCE and submitted by Mait Uus.

This creature did not evolve too well. It's success seems to come from what it manages to do in those first few seconds. It gets a good distance but after that it's movement is not in any consistent direction.

Do colors have any kind of meaning, or is it random. Because i was wondering : why does the creature have just one yellow cube, the rest of the cubes being green?

Also the creature doesn't move fast, but it sure makes nice somersaults.

Color is determined genetically but it has no effect at all, beyond looks - like a layer of paint only. All body parts of the same "type" (coded for by the same part of the genome) have the same color (although it's possible for two different types to have the same color, just never two of the same type with different colors). So, the yellow block is of a different type than the green ones.

That would be an improvement. Meh.. too late.
