What you are describing here doesn't sound like any sort of simulation of evolution, it sounds like a mutagenesis screen for genes with interesting phenotypes. Of course in a mutagenesis screen embryonic lethal genes are often just as interesting as those that leave the organism viable but otherwise phenotypically distinct.
