Press C to clear the grid. Click on cells to change their state. After you finish editing, press space to start the game. Press space during the game to pause it and edit. Adjust the "tick" variable to change the speed of the game. The variable at the top-left shows how many generations have passed, and the variable at the top-right shows the number of live cells. Press V to show/hide variables. Draw a pattern and watch it evolve through the generations.
Conway's Game of Life is a cellular automaton invented by John Horton Conway. It consists of a grid with cells of two types: live and dead. These cells change state depending on four rules: 1. Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies, as if by underpopulation. 2. Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives on to the next generation. 3. Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies, as if by overpopulation. 4. Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours becomes a live cell, as if by reproduction.
