Shapeme is described as 'Inspired by Roger Alsing's great idea, Shapeme uses SDL to evolve images with simulated annealing' and is an app in the development category. There are four alternatives to Shapeme for Mac, Web-based, Self-Hosted, Windows and Linux. The best Shapeme alternative is Primitive, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like Shapeme are Primitive for macOS, Altered Qualia and Genetic Art.
Primitive is a Go (Programming Language) command-line app based on Roger Alsing's great work, that reproduces images using geometric primitives such as ovals, triangles and rectangles.
Based on the author's open-source Primitive project, Primitive for macOS adds a super intuitive interface to make it dead easy to process images, recreating them with primitive shapes like triangles, rectangles and bezier curves.
Altered Qualia Evolve takes an input image and reproduces it using shapes of various colors and transparencies. It uses a simulated annealing-like optimization algorithm based on the great work of Roger Alsing.
Genetic Art takes an input image and reproduces it with primitive shapes, either lines, triangles, circles or squares. It's available online or as a self-hosted HTML/JavaScript web app.
