In my fish breeding game Koi Farm, an infinite number of koi patterns can be explored through crossbreeding. The techniques I've used to simulate pattern mutation and crossbreeding are explained in this article, and an interactive javascript based pattern generator and mutator is included to demonstrate the algorithms.
Symmetry or reflections can be rendered by defining plane surfaces through which things need to be reflected and mirroring the scene through the planes. This article details a shader algorithm that can be used to render geometry with one or more symmetry planes applied to it in real time.
Procedural content randomization can lead to interesting outcomes, but randomness needs to be limited and guided for good results. This article illustrates several techniques that can be used to achieve that goal with interactive javascript examples.
