Good start... some suggestions:
1) increase iteration speed, maybe make it adjustable? right now it just is too slow.
2) Figure some way to score other than longevity. Maybe average entropy * Longevity?
3) Make the stages have some kind of variety. Like, every 3 levels, have a cascade of diagonal gliders or a 1-d cellular automata look-alike come falling down.
4) Ability to switch between firing diagonal gliders, forward gliders, and the upward gliders would be neat.
Soldier on.

It's an oddball of a game. It looks quality, but it fails to be fun, and is mostly just particle effect. Heck, your own bullets can kill you!

Interesting, inventive, but highly random, with strange and often unpredictable behavior. Keep trying, though!
