Description

Rules:

1. Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies, as if by loneliness.

2. Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies, as if by overcrowding.

3. Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives, unchanged, to the next generation.

4. Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours comes to life.

The Game of Life is a cellular automaton devised by the British mathematician John Horton Conway in 1970. It is the best-known example of a cellular automaton.

More info at "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%27s_Game_of_Life":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%27s_Game_of_Life.

How to Play

Click on a dead cell to give life to it, click on an alive cell to kill it.
Drag over dead cells to give them life, drag over alive cells to kill them.

Click on Step to go one generation further, Start to go on in automatic, Stop to pause, Clear to kill all the cells, Random to give life to random cells.

I spent forever making a checkerboard design thinking i would get some crazy animation but they all die instantly =/ but by far the best design is a line on each border and just enjoy the show ^^

I actually filled up all 2,400 squares. I officially have no life.

Good idea: make an L-shape (like in tetris) but put annother cell diagonally to the short end, facing inward. It will crawl accross the screen for ever. Not very interesting. But what if you make 2?
