Fun experiment but at the end of the day, did not find the evolution aspect accurate or realistic enough.

Bummer that this got abandoned. I bought it in 2019 and played 13.5 hours (which is a decent lot for such a bare EA game) and remember really liking it but thinking I'll pick it back up a bit later in the development cycle because it was still very 'conceptual'.
I just had my first peek at it since then, and it looks like the last update was late November 2022. I didn't reinstall it, but it doesn't look like it made any real significant progress from where it was when I picked it up in 2019. A real shame, because this game really has the bones of something incredible, but will likely never be realised.
Definitely not recommended at $30 for a completely abandoned game currently sitting on version 0.14
