Interactive “Conway’s Life” Simulator

Wander a tweet-sized garden and tend it as you like. It's what it says on the tin, Conway's Game Of Life done in 'garden' form. Done in a rush for Ludum Dare 46: Keep It Alive. Controls: Left mouse - plant and remove crops. R - Reset the stage. Goals: There is no 'win' state (though there's definitely a way to lose). Collect as many berries as you can while trying to avoid 'wasting' crops.

Crepuscular Life is a free, interactive OpenGL screensaver which runs John Conway’sGame of Life at full display resolution (non-Retina).

Features: • Keeps the board in motion by regularly spawning spaceships • User can change the game speed & cell count while saver runs • Preserves the board state between runs • Optimized for multiple processors/cores • Supports multiple displays, each with its own settings & controls • Runs on OS X 10.3 Panther or later

The Game of Life is not your typical computer game. It is a cellular automaton, and was invented by Cambridge mathematician John Conway.

This game became widely known when it was mentioned in an article published by Scientific American in 1970. It consists of a collection of cells which, based on a few mathematical rules, can live, die or multiply. Depending on the initial conditions, the cells form various patterns throughout the course of the game.

Rules

For a space that is populated:

Each cell with one or no neighbors dies, as if by solitude.

Each cell with four or more neighbors dies, as if by overpopulation.

Each cell with two or three neighbors survives.

For a space that is empty or unpopulated

Each cell with three neighbors becomes populated.

Choose a pattern from the lexicon or make one yourself by clicking on the cells. The 'Start' button advances the game by several generations (each new generation corresponding to one iteration of the rules).

More information

In the first video, from Stephen Hawkings’ documentary The Meaning of Life, the rules are explained, in the second, John Conway himself talks about the Game of Life.

The Guardian published a nice article about John Conway.
