This video game might be of interest for the game programmers attending this forum, evolutionism being one of the most popular topic
Some time ago I read a book by Richard Dawkins
He was looking for expert graphic programmers to work togheter on a visual simulation of evolution
He might be still interested , if some one wishes to contact him..
Obviously you can not expect to go from a single spore to a galactic civilization, like in the game,but , according to him, it should be possible to obtain some interesting results

Eyes on the tail, ears on the legs etc
Everywere but on the head
