Petri Dish
#1
This is an improvement on a program I posted a couple days ago.  It'll get a some more development at some point. 

The screen is randomly populated with an assortment of microbes. They'll skitter about but they do become tired and bored. If you click the mouse that will excite them and get their attention. You can also adjust the temperature and see how they endure. New microbes will slowly spawn in if the population drops.

The program will end when there are no surviving microbes. 

Code: (Select All)

Pretty cool! Reminds me of something someone did back in the old forum about bacteria or something populating at an increasing speed. But I think that was just dots and not little designs like yours.

Eventually going to slap in some nutrient solution and a more variability in behavior.
