== Abstract ==
This paper describes a system for the evolution and
co-evolution of virtual creatures that compete in
physically simulated three-dimensional worlds. Pairs
of individuals enter one-on-one contests in which
they contend to gain control of a common resource.
The winners receive higher relative fitness scores
allowing them to survive and reproduce. Realistic
dynamics simulation including gravity, collisions,
and friction, restricts the actions to physically plausi-
ble behaviors.
The morphology of these creatures and the neural
systems for controlling their muscle forces are both
genetically determined, and the morphology and
behavior can adapt to each other as they evolve
simultaneously. The genotypes are structured as
directed graphs of nodes and connections, and they
can efficiently but flexibly describe instructions for
the development of creatures’ bodies and control sys-
tems with repeating or recursive components. When
simulated evolutions are performed with populations
of competing creatures, interesting and diverse strate-
gies and counter-strategies emerge.
