Predators and Prey will evolve over time which is where the Shapeshift aspect is. Predators need to eat prey to survive, so make sure you put a lot of prey in before you place predators. Prey have a small chance of being able to reproduce, so you may have to restart a couple of times, breeding may get out of hand, so if the game starts to lag, put some predators in.\r\n\r\nMade in Java with no external libraries","title":"Evolution"}
