Ok guys just to recap, ff you haven’t heard of Conway’s Game, this classic cellular automaton devise is consists of a collection of cells which, based on a few mathematical rules, can live, die or multiply.

The Game of Life rules:

Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies, as if caused by underpopulation.
Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies, as if by overcrowding.
Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives on to the next generation.
Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours becomes a live cell.

Developer’s note:

The Load and Save feature don’t work. The app will crash if you try. The save/load state with the L and R-trigger works well. It isn’t fully working but you can enjoy the bigger canvas and analog support.

Changelog:

Added seperate menu/game/help/credits screen.
Added option to change the raster size.
Added option to change the CPU Speed.
Added analog stick support.
Added XMB icon (created by cmbeke)
Added feature to save and load a savestate (temporary)
Some GU optimalisation
Dpad now only moves one pixel at the time so it should be easier to create complex structures.
Fixed bug #001: You can activate a pixel while running the simulation.
