Description
A 3d puzzle game based on Conway's game of life.
In each level you have to manipulate the board to have only the required number of cells alive after the required number of generations. Most of the puzzles can be solved by a bit of thought and if you're still stuck the puzzle name is usually a hint
In sandbox mode there's no requirements so you can play with the board as much as you like.
The rules for life are :
The board on which the game of life plays out is a grid of squares and each cell on the grid is alive or dead based on the conditions of its 8 neighbours. Each generation the board is updated based on these 4 rules:
# Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies, as if caused by under-population.
# Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives on to the next generation.
# Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies, as if by overcrowding.
# Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours becomes a live cell, as if by reproduction.
Hope you have fun and if there's any suggestions or bugs I missed feel free to let me know and i'll fix them as soon as I can :)

1. This is a good game. But why should it be 3D? just inconvenient. 2. Introduction is not enough, should be some animation or something.

It's really difficult to read the buttons and game info with such a complicated background pattern.

This game was awesome until you made it 3d. Now it's way to hard to place things in the right spaces and the camera freaks out sometimes

I've finished The irRegular Game of Life, so this is brilliant, thank you. Gave you 5/5.
