[Challenge]Virtual creature in Sketchup
-
Dear all,
I was totally fascinated by this ancient video from Karl Sims(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0OHycypSG8)
and the Breve project(http://www.spiderland.org/). Really hope this could be rebuilt in Sketchup with the help of Ruby and Sketchy physics. This would be the best game I'd ever have. What do you think? 
Attached is the paper "Evolved Virtual Creatures" by Karl Sims.

When boxes have human behaviors!

Have you heard of spore?
Incorporating evolution between bacterial development to galactic conquest - the creatures are not fully autonomous though.

I guess they used the concept of evolution for promotion, but in fact it is still an environment where the players make decision. I found some other not-so-ancient projects related to virtual creature and this one looks pretty interesting:http: http://www.darwinathome.org/video.html.
Anyway, to me Sketchup is quite a natural environment for this kind of projects to evolve.
