genetic shape generator
this webapp can be used to generate shapes based on a gene. different slices of the gene
influence certain ways the shapes are drawn. (e.g. the first to digits determine the amount
of grid columns)
there are different ways to generate shapes.
one is to draw new shapes with random genes / parameters.
mutating the shape offers similar shapes with closely related genes.
if you are content with the
characteristics of the shape, you can create similar shapes by pressing the "new shape" button.
at last there is the possibility of manually editing the gene in the gene lab, which can be accessed
by clicking the gene itself. there you can also change the color represented in hexadecimal in the
last six digits. this parameter will always stay the same, if you are looking to find shapes in a
certain color.
