The mechanics are really cool and the idea is very unique.
I feel like a better explanation of what is happening would make the game better. I had no idea what was going on even after reading this info page. I get that its based on the Game of Life, but I don't totally remember/understand the rules to that. Good concept, but some more explaining would help.
One of my first ideas after hearing the theme was Conway's game of life and although my team went a different direction, I'm really glad to see someone go with it. This is a simple but effective demonstration of the theme. Nice job!
I had no idea what was going on, but it was enjoyable watching the patterns!
165 was my score.
You need to know the game of life in order to understand the game. But it's still quite enjoyable. It feels more random than controllable, but I think it's a part of the fun. Quite enjoyable to watch, what so ever.
I didn't get what was going on either, but I liked the minimalist aesthetic of this! :D
Intriguing concept, but I think that it misses some feedback in order to understand what happens in the game, and what are our mistakes during each playthrough.
Indeed, I found rather hard to know where I made a mistake, for me the learning curve is very difficult, so I really think that you should more feedback and explanations, it will help a lot the understanding of your game !
Overall gg for your work !
Definitely a fun toy to play around with. My record is 112. It'd be nice if the clock speed would stay set rather than going back to 1 each time. I really like seeing cool experimental games like this, keep up the good work.
Very clever idea! I can see this as a puzzle game where you'd have to score a certain score each level. Very good concept, good job!
Really cool. It's really nice seeing the game of life rules used to make puzzle mechanics like this, and it actually works really well.
Nice job.
Graphics and UI were good, but the game definitely needs more of an explanation for those who don't know Conway's Game of Life.
As someone who doesn't know Game of Life I didn't really understand what was going on.
Thank you so much to everyone who participated in this year's jam. It's really great to share in a community of like-minded individuals. I'll make improvements based on your feedback for a future itch.io release.
Nobody complained about this, but I'm sorry it didn't run in the browser.
My initial (browser) release completely fell apart due to poor testing on my part, but I managed to get the project to work as a standalone in the last hour or so.... I ended up submitting with 2 minutes left on the clock!
