This is really impressive considering the lines of code. I like the 'F' interface too. And my fish swim way faster on desktop. Also my kid says "that's amazing" and "how cute".

So is the skipping/redrawing I'm seeing happen for each new generation? It's distracting but maybe it needs to be there.

I'm glad you and your kid like it! haha

Yup that's exactly right. It's resetting the food to new random positions, creating all the new fish for the next generation, then placing them.

I can make the generations longer, which is more fun to watch, but it takes longer for the intelligence to evolve because each generation is longer. Maybe I could make that a variable you could change on the intro screen if I made such a thing. There's like 20 variables to mess with at the start
