Evolving the Jumping Shark! - Evolution Simulator

[@christybilowith3021]

builds a wheel, crawls. builds a shark, it rolls... logic

[@amaokay2753]

This deserves more likes NOW

[@thisisacomment2584]

They fly

[@rupinsood1691]

Exactly bro

[@francenkovcan5211]

You can change complexity of neural network by clicking on the brain icon

[@ristopoho824]

Oh dang. I just commented how it's sad you can't do that :D I played around with this quite a while ago, so maybe it was added since then....

[@My_initials_are_O.G.cuz_I_am]

I love the wave effect the sharks have been doing at the end.

[@thelastorangetictac5294]

Box of -mints- one mint

[@stewartmiddleschoolsucks484]

You need to put bones insid

[@ristopoho824]

By the default apparently the game uses a single layer perceptron type neural nets. But seems you can change it to a more complex one. I'm not sure how much use it is, but.. with single layer, the learning is kinda limited, as in, nothing happens after some hundred or so generations no matter how far you'd keep it running. Still. The main functionality of the creations comes from their shape. So more complex nets may not be needed....

[@ultimatedragon4281]

I really think that game should use NEAT instead of this fixed layout...

[@ristopoho824]

Yea. It's way superior in many ways. A lot harder to code though. Still. The amount of work they have put into this is huge already.. So maybe on some update.

[@beasty909]

What if you added ribcages so to speak? x still fun x

[@jive3341]

Make a triangle put two legs and connect the legs to the triangle with one muscle each leg

[@kazoo3354]

The shark rolls more than the wheel did xD

[@Polygonetwo]

Connecting muscles between the same bones multiple times will make the muscles stronger. There's a hint about it somewhere either on the page the game is on or the help menu in game. Could be useful.

[@GameonHead]

I found your channel today, and I like this kind of content.

[@kingscorperious6885]

for the spring one, connect the muscles horizontally not vertically

[@ruixuan4430]

make 2 individual bones and join them with 1 muscle

[@communistcat3240]

i dont think that will do anything

[@ruixuan4430]

it will, i've tried

[@sebastianspivey8570]

I wish I could :C

[@KWash-xu9nh]

It's free on mobile

[@OneArmDan]

...and on computer...

[@elisagowases2970]

Blitz you are the awsome youtuber

[@g0ingcosmo809]

Yo i love you gameplay vids

[@veloi3]

They should add a swim challenge, just spawn your creature in the water and try to make it swim

[@xevia3877]

also i like the scripture in your channel description :)

[@bstlybot]

By generation 50 I got a super fast frog-bunny on my own. Keep it simple!

[@maskoloxyn137]

5:07 ''Dobby have to punish hisself! ;-;''

[@emackershonk2390]

make a snake pls ;-;

[@voxelbugged]

So this is basically an improved version of Carykh's evolution simulator :P

[@morphman86]

Jumping the Shark: To try and innovate a TV show after it has already passed its peak by introducing irrelevant and unfitting elements. Named after a late episode in Happy Days, where the gang goes on holiday and Fonzie is waterskiing (of course still in his leather jacket) and at one point jumps over a shark using a ramp. The scene was nonsensical and was put there to offer some suspense, but it just turned out to cement the show's failure.

[@bug_the_bug]

when you try the wheel, you have to go rid off the middle part! Try something like a circle and connect all parts with bones, without a middle part! sorry for bad english

[@bendavisson3881]

lol the "tuna fish" is like a pufferfish

[@SteamTrainTy]

*I'm a new veiwer, and I subed! God bless you!*

[@crated_]

The main problem is you need to fill the inside with triangles, every other shape will collapse due to the joints.

[@ultimatedragon4281]

You can make the others shapes not collapse (without necessarily using triangles), making possible the use of lots of shapes and not just triangle to make things stable. I didn't try for odd sided polygons, but using regular polygons with even number of sides it is enough just make it and add one bone connecting each joint to the two second nearest joints on the shape. If it is a square, the additional joints will be the diagonals, if it is six sided, it will be two triangles, if it is eight sided, it will be two squares and so on. This method is more usefull when working with really big shapes or when extra bones are needed.

[@thisguy165]

Meat wheel:*jumps* Me:I'm out

[@Waffle_6]

Make a caterpiller Ps love ur vids

[@Senkuwu]

I got a really good Nueral network setup of 4 layers of 50 each, not sure why but it worked well for all of my creations, including my 8 legged crabbo.

[@elanasilverman4468]

Jumping Shark. I love it! XD

[@mr.dynomite8890]

Blitz, the creatures get stronger as you pass more generations.

[@POGROMCA2]

Next time make a Pixar lamp and see how it would evolve.

[@zeina2760]

Make a cross and connect the bottom of it and the top let it run for gen 50 and it flys (also you need a little bit or muscle not to much)

[@damnitChadwick]

I just tried this last night it is so much fun

[@zerg6205]

Hehe! Bouncing snakes and mice!

[@crown9018]

Welp just another day for the Survey Corp :) And I love your video Blitz and I subscribe to you (basically you are my god :/)

[@mjb7015]

It's official, this game has jumped the shark.

[@gibbering_mound7919]

“Jumping the shark” comes from Fonzie. On the show’s decline, there was an episode in which he jumped over a shark on a jet ski. It was pretty sad

[@gibbering_mound7919]

Just realized that my comment sounds like I don’t like your video. I do! Please jump silly sharks!

[@argir5849]

*YOU DID WELL*

[@thonex8787]

fastest design i found a wheel with only outside bones and muscles inside :D 6m/s spinning movement :D

[@DragonixaHome]

Make a running cat :3

[@danandchristineharbour2538]

Make a triangle with long strait legs and it will dance

[@DrGlacier007]

I'm like your biggest fan

[@sharkyboy2538]

You made me jumping

[@dragonstar2842]

I tried making a wheel, and there was only 1 time I was able to get it to actually roll. But not even re-evolving the exact same being 20 more times (restarting the process, at letting it run for about 50 generations) was able to get it to repeat that... they kept wanting to scoot across the ground instead. They also seem to learn faster if you let each generation run longer (I usually do 30 seconds per generation)

[@ZealOnWheels704]

I guess you could say this is a BONE shark.

[@autello5300]

Increase the mutation rate, it lowers the chances that the progress will plateau.

[@heidivanostrand6573]

right when he said 40 by the he end my clock turned 11:40 LOL

[@MrFlexNC]

Wait longer, let it go for more generations

[@michielmoons1233]

You should still up you time per generation, it keeps showing the next generation withing 5 sec, but it has more learningtime

[@blakestephenson5824]

you should turn your curser black or make it bigger because its hard to see when you're pointing

[@KalYT]

Go it options and scroll down for the neural network settings

[@katrinakirkell6454]

Hm.... Interesting..... •.•

[@cedrussempervirens]

Blitz when u make the circle DO NOT add muscles BUT add a LOT of bones

[@frostydaplug6896]

God must be soooo good at this game

[@michaelan9elo764]

You can change the seconds on the top right of the building area

[@durpyran2045]

More like puffer fish evolution XD

[@Jojo-on7pk]

something I did was make an upsidedown V and connect the 2 bones with muscle and it was one of the most succesfull things I've created so far :p

[@darioferraris978]

you should try zombie survival game, Basingstoke.

[@Enrico9431_]

Try to make a bird and if there isnt a fly option then try to make it go jump really high so it looks like flying.

[@clementiine4422]

you should probably look at the kangaroo preset.

[@kitkat4189]

Build a starfish!!!

[@asnek5098]

Call the shark a puffershark

[@barerninja9702]

*_In Soviet Russia, zombies don’t eat you, you eat them._*

[@isyeetboi2331]

*MAKE PAC-MAN!!!* And maybe the ghosts too

[@joman2733]

Please build something that gets his stability from a triangle. Edit: A triangle with The maximum of 3 points(A, B, C)

[@Troubz]

2nd good vid blitz I love all your vids as well

[@Zakor78]

I really want to say that this has nothing to do with neural network, it's just a genetic algorithm.

[@nimperus9456]

make a big spider

[@samola3452]

Try to make an elephant please

[@goobygoober_69]

He needs to put muscles on the very end of the springs (On the side)

[@dillionratledge4533]

A big fan

[@cobaltmn5716]

this reminds me of KaryKH's evolution simulator

[@siuol_ly6141]

Fish have bones though. . . Internal ones.He only made external bones.

[@nickg6886]

100th comment not that it matters. I love your vids blitz!

[@GtmNayan]

Boston Dynamics LS3

[@rileyzanatta7664]

Ha! Neat! Neuroevolution of Augmenting Topologies? Anyone?

[@stork4691]

One bouncy wet boi👌

[@how2pick4name]

You can better evolve, back, evolve, back, until you have one that does what you want. They evolve from the base creatures so if those don't eve come close to what they should be doing letting them go is usually a waste of time.

[@plutonicgnat115cool5]

Wait... don't jump the shark... Sk8 3 reference?

[@xevia3877]

hey blitz, do you know entaco? he's a great youtuber along with you :)

[@MrNobodyX3]

My best creation is just a square :P

[@shadyshyguy4058]

You should test with much higher popularion, or if your device can't handle that much then use branches. My device is not so powerful so I have experimented. I did a creature with the basic 10 popularion, and then I tested the same creature with 100 population divided to 10 branches(you can create less branches if your device has the power to hadle more creature at the same time). Surely the time gap between generation is longer this way. But this way the best creature of fourth generation of the 100 population group was better than the best crearure from the 100th generation of the 10 population group. So in the long term it is actually faster working with higher population even if you have to divide them to branches.

[@KentaQ]

Turn on caption and go to 6:57

[@morphman86]

Come on, you must have known you missed an obvious joke in the title... Should've been "Jumping the Shark"

[@randompersonontheinternet3141]

The shark is galloping

[@arkhalis3682]

Hey Blitz do you like Starbound? Just asking

[@Makowako_]

Treatment needed

[@ewlesoraptor6157]

U da best blitz

[@KWash-xu9nh]

YA HE IS DA BEST. YAY FOR BLITZ

[@D4NDRUFFD4VE_THEFL4KEM4STER]

or you can make a boney outer shell with nothing but muscles on the inside, like i did with my bouncy ball.

[@dr.dungbeetle2516]

I JUST REALIZED HE SOUNDS LIKE MATT

[@primalrage3219]

Can you make a dinosaur??
