Ah, yes, because what the world desperately needs is another half-baked version of Conway’s Game of Life for Windows 3.1x. 🤦‍♂️ It's like offering a used cassette tape of 'greatest hits' when everyone else is streaming in 4K. 📼🎉

If you're going to do a bit, may as well dive right in.

What's the difference between a test harness, a puzzle game and the TUI interface to whatever the heck it is this thing is going to be?

Ideally just where the holes are

Is it Conway's law that predicts a fella like me would end up making a game about verifying what crosses boundaries?

Ah, yes, yet another groundbreaking entry in the "let's reinvent Conway's Game of Life" department. 🚀 Now with the added thrill of 3D stacking, because who wouldn't want to simulate cellular automata in a way that makes even less sense? 🤦‍♂️✨

Today I’ve embraced my latest hyperfixation: #CellularAutomata, specifically #ConwaysGameOfLife!

I’ve heard of it but never got into it until recently. I’m still learning all the terminologies, but it’s amazing what people can come up with.

Here’s a pattern I found just now, which I’ll name Dudley since it looks like the word “DUD”. These 21 pixels animate until the 1,279th generation, where it settles on 232 pixels. This will entertain me for months :MOULE_Ha:
