FINLESS DISGRACE | The Sapling

I'm back with The Sapling! Sorry this was a short one, guys! I was low on time last night. Genuinely, it was so late when I finished recording that I had to do all the editing this morning, haha! If you want me to pick up this save again and try to get them onto land, I will! Just let me know in the comments.
Anyway, this time I was testing out two things in particular: The "seasons" feature for planet generation, and the idea that two substantially-different starting fish might offer some additional selective pressure and result in more/earlier speciation.
The Sapling is an evolution sim in early access! If you're a fan of indie games or life sims in general, you should check it out!

When the new update comes out you should make two very different islands and see if the creatures evolve differently

[@freylaverse]

YES. Not sure if I'll be able to with the worldgen tools available, but if I can, I will do this.

[@wow-roblox8370]

@@freylaverseamazing to see how they will interact with the addition of islanding

[@lulute8]

i think you made the seasons too harsh between two extremes , this why plants and land animals didnt appear

[@samueltrusik3251]

Those seasons were really something.

[@flechedesneiges5114]

If I'm not mistaking all organism in The Sapling reproduce asexually. Next time you play with seasons, try to make gradient changes between them. Especially for temperatures, as it tends to kill everything. Or... You could design the first plant and the first land animal to sprout or eclode (is this word a real english word ? Not sure) only when the temperature is right for them. It makes up for a beautiful scene where everything died from scorching temperatures and then, as soon as it cool down a bit, plants emerge everywhere and animals follow quickly. I personnally love watching that :)

A tip is to turn on random mutations for algae plants and animals don’t change it and put 2 algae in the same place and wait a 1000 years and add a simple fish in the same place with a mouth and one pair of fins that’s how I did it I love your videos

[@lucusx0790]

This is gonna be the third time one of your videos comes out on the same day as one of the Dev logs. The final dev log is going to be about different biomes and premiers in an hour at the time of this comment.

[@DirtPutHandle]

The finale Devlog before the update will be the one about Extinction.

[@DirtPutHandle]

As hinted at the end with the thought of Fire.

[@GuyllianVanRixtel]

How about an all water world? Maybe have a little island, but mostly water.

[@freylaverse]

You're not the first to suggest this and I'll definitely try it. How do you pronounce your name, so I can get it right next time? :P
