Pixelime
——A story of how life expands and vanishes
Description: Pixelime is a hypothetical soft-bodied creature living in the wetlands of Southeast Asia. Please create your slimes in this simulator, feed them, witness their offspring, build families, and ultimately witness the end of life.
Abstruct: This project utilizes p5.js and HTML to construct a web simulator, simulating the evolution and life cycle of an interactive pixelime community. The inspiration for this work comes from the classic fantasy depiction of slimes and pixel art style found in various fantasy works. Users primarily use the mouse and keyboard to create new pixelime individuals and feed them. Afterward, users can observe the evolution of various slime communities.
A pixelime individual is primarily composed of appearance, color, name, and HP (health points). Individuals deployed directly by users have completely random names and colors. New individuals bred from existing ones inherit the family name from their parents and receive a random given name. Additionally, their color is a blend of their parents’ colors.
