I am working on a program that evolves creatures over time using a genetic algorithm. However, for some reason, my pygame display stopped working and I have absolutely no idea why. When I run the program, the window opens but then it just sits on a black screen. I have tested to see where the program gets to and about 38 creatures die then nothing happens. However, these creatures should be displaying before their deaths also, but they aren't.Any help would be wonderful! Thank you for all your time!
Here's my code:

#Initializes Pygame & Creates Window
pygame.init()

pygame.display.set_caption("Genetic Algorithm")
screen.fill(backgroundColor)
clock = pygame.time.Clock()
#Loads Images & Rectangles
creaturePNG = pygame.image.load("Creature.png").convert_alpha()
foodPNG = pygame.image.load("Food.png").convert_alpha()
#Establishes Size Of Population
creatureCount = 40
deadCreatures = []
