Reviews for "Conway's Game of Life"

Strange

Very odd, I actually like the strange spin on this. It acts sort of like a procedurally generated picture or stretching further, movie. Are all the patterns completely randomized, as when I hit 'random'? I ask because I keep seeing quite accurate representations of trains, boats, e.t.c., but I have a feeling that that is the POINT of the game. Overall I think it needs to be polished just a little bit, we're sort of thrown to a blank screen with no instructions, but I really like the idea. I'd give it a high 8, but that rounds to 9, so there you go.

AdamYoung27 responds:

Yes. It is all random. The random button simply fills in random cells and then you can watch what comes up on the screen. Even I don't know what will happen in all possible ways. I just programmed the basic rules of the game into this SWF. It took a lot of times playing the Java applet on www.math.com to be able to get this game completely right.
