    "Bacteria" is a puzzle game based on Conway's "Game of Life" cellular automaton. The goal is to add cells to a stable game field, aiming for a halted or cleared state after a few steps. You can add single points or use "Gliders" and "Lightweight Spaceships" patterns, with the difficulty level determining the allowed area for new cells. The game offers both colored and black and white modes.

  • The Game of Life, also known simply as Life, is a cellular automaton devised by the British mathematician John Horton Conway in 1970. The "game" is a zero-player game, meaning that its evolution is determined by its initial state, requiring no further input. One interacts with the Game of Life by creating an initial configuration and observing how it evolves, or, for advanced "players", by creatin…

  • Watch as colorful life evolves in a timeless classic.Conway Color Life is a cellular automaton variation of Conway's Game of Life, a collection of cells arranged in a grid that change over time based on a set of simple rules. A living cell with less than 2 neighbors dies A living cell with 2 or 3 neighbors lives A living cell with more than 3 neighbors dies A dead cell with 3 living neighbors beco…

  • Plant seeds, cut the roots, and change the very rules of Life itselfto create beatiful evolving root structures. Roots of Life is a game, a simulation and an interactive piece of art. It takes inspiration from Conwey's Game of Life but expands the original ruleset to better model root-like growing. However, the default rules are only the beginning as the game allows player to fully customize its r…

  • # Introduction Welcome to Game of (No) Life, which is just a fun little environment to play around with Conway's Game of Life. In a nutshell, it is a cellular automaton where cells on a grid live, die, or reproduce based on simple rules, simulating complex patterns and behaviors. These rules are: A live cell remains live in the next timestep if it has either 2 or 3 live neighbors in the current…
