Written in C using the GBDK, this is a simple implementation of the classic cellular "game".

User guide

Conway's Game of Life is a cellular automaton devised by mathematician John Conway in 1970. It consists of a grid of cells, each in one of two states: alive or dead. The state of a cell evolves in discrete time steps based on simple rules.

A living cell survives if it has two or three living neighbors; otherwise, it dies due to underpopulation or overpopulation. A dead cell becomes alive if it has exactly three living neighbors.

In this demo, there is no gameplay or control; it is purely observational, allowing you to watch the patterns unfold.
