Game Of Life

A coding exercise I did based on John Conway's Game of Life. Game of life is a zero player game or in my case, arguably 1 player game? Put simply, it's a simulator that turns on and off cell blocks based on a few guiding rules and initial input. 

For those unfamiliar with the rules, they are:

1. Any live cell with < 2 or > 3 live neighbouring cells will die in the next generation.
2. Any live cell with exactly 2 or 3 live neighbouring cells will continue on to the next generation.
3. Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbouring cells will become a live cell in the next generation

PLAYING THE GAME:

1. You can start by click anywhere on the board to activate a cell. You can also just click the 'Randomize' button to activate multiple cells on the board randomly. 

2. Then just hit the 'Play' button and watch the simulation unfolds.

CONTROLS:

Right Mouse Click & Hold - Drag around the board

Scroll Wheel - Zoom In & Zoom Out

There are more interface buttons on the board which you can experiment.
