I really like that the project is FLOSS and made in godot: https://github.com/Revolutionary-Games/Thrive
It was actually a pretty fun game, and if I recall correctly, eventually free. You might actually be able to find it online somewhere.
Although I’m not entirely sure if you wanna call it a game, per se… It was more like an evolution engine wherewith you got to experiment with different traits combinations, and eventually end up with an evolved creature of sorts. Interesting and amusing.
It seemed like something one might find in a fifth grade biology class as a teaching tool. But fun!
It was supposed to be an evolution engine. That’s how they developed it and how the tech demos and marketing pushed it.
But then it ended up being simplified and gamified so much that it basically didn’t matter what you did, so the only fun part was making your creatures look like penises.
Yeah, it sounded so cool, but reading reviews they always make it sound like it wasn't much fun and didn't live up to it's potential.

I did recently, got nightmares from it.
