EcoSim is a customizable ecosystem simulation meant to allow users to explore the effects of various actions on the environment, such as removing species, changing the landscape, or changing the climate. As climate awareness and knowledge of environmental impacts become more important than ever, EcoSim is intended as an educational resource for people to gain a basic understanding of how ecology works and how ecosystems change.

Each turn that progresses, every being checks their environment to make the next move. Creatures move, eat, reproduce, and die to reflect a real system. The ecology of the current project is intentionally simple, but full of possibilities. In EcoSim, the player makes a map using the temperature and altitude functions, and places wildlife on said map with the species function. The player then progresses turns, and can either watch how their built ecosystem plays out, or can change factors between turns, like removing a creature, adding land, or changing the climate.
