Reminds me of something I wrote years ago:

https://github.com/adamierymenko/nanopond

Ecosim has prettier graphics and seems more high level and concerned with ecology, while nanopond is more about just open ended program evolution (including the rise of self-replicators ex nihilo... it starts by just generating totally random programs).
