Could you send over the link to the code?
And what you mean by procedural– I’m guessing you’re combining images that are pieces of an artwork into a whole?

after some testing by removing the entire 25% chance if statement i can narrow down the issue but something that helps a lot is using debug mode where i can clearly see the issue.
oh and the issue seems to be when making the second sprite the sprite data needs to be added again so that it can be referenced which is why it was throwing undefined
Additionally, when you pick an item from the array thats 0, or max but then move to -1 or +1 the game cant return an item thats outside the array. Like trying to read the 5th word in a sentence with only 4 words. (or the -1th word).
i fixed this by making a custom random function that will tick over if the value is too high or too low
im not entirely sure what you were trying to do but i hope this was helpful! i really like this little demo and i cant wait to see how its implemented

That procedural art looks a lot like the Bibites on that one Evolution simulator game!

You’re welcome, @miguelsanto17598-gli! I’m so glad to have helped!
THIS GAME IS SO BEUTIFUL! Great job at creating all the creatures!
OK. I was looking at the code and I can see some things that might trip it up. For some reason all the errors I was finding were in some kind of update loop. I have no idea what to do about that because I was looking at your code and nothing seems incorrect. Maybe it’s a bug that has to do with Makecode Arcade?
The forever block with the “render all soft bodies”, you have to use an “on game update” block. Change it to this:
The game works fine when I removed the function “createskydweller”. I was looking in the function for that creature, but I don’t see anything that’s wrong. I’m not entirely sure why. The debugger says that there’s something wrong with the "mySprite2"s image.
Also, I would love it if you could add me to the credits of this amazing game!

(it’s sometimes annoying when I have to refresh the game so many times only for it to work…) I’ll find a way to stop that!

this is an amazing game great job.
Also I have a name idea:
“Treestalker”
It could be something that hides in trees and just watches you until it does something

Good idea! I’ll do concept art before adding your creature
