Inspiration

9 10 2008

This game, inspired by the “game of life” gives life to pixels which can evolve but are restricted to 4 simple rules.

  • If less than 2 neighbours are alive, the cell dies (loneliness)
  • If more than 3 neighbours are alive, the cell dies (overcrowding)
  • If a living cell has 2 or 3 living neighbours it continues to live
  • If a dead cell has 3 living neighbours it comes to life
  • When the evolution takes place, the rules determine the outcome of the pattern that you see in display window. It creates some really complex looking patterns and shape shifts which i would say falls under the category of “genetic art”.
