This map is a remake of Conway's Game of Life, a popular cellular automaton.
The map consists of a grid of cells, which can have either an 'on' or 'off' state. The rules are simple:
- An on/live cell will die when it has less than 2 or more than 3 neighbours.
- An off/dead cell will come to life if it has exactly 3 live neighbours.
Many complex and interesting patterns can arise. Multiple players can modify the same grid. Live cells will have the color of the player who creates them.
