LifeGoesOn, a stunning, hands-on experience of Conway’s Game of Life — the classic cellular automaton brought to vivid life with color, strategy, and creativity.

Add stones, pause and adjust the grid, and explore unexpected interactions as your creations take on a life of their own. Features: • Interactive Grid: Tap to place Red or Blue stones and bring your pattern to life. • Color Evolution: When different colors interact, they combine into new life — Yellow stones! • Wrap Mode: Switch between traditional edges and infinite wraparound for new dynamics. • Grid Sizes: Choose from 10x10 to 25x25 grids to scale up your experiments. • Video Recording: Record your simulations and share your creations with friends or students. • Running Stats Panel: Track generation count and population changes in real time. • Built-in Patterns: Includes classic examples like the Glider, Toad, and Blinker.
