  • # 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…

    "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…
