LÖVE

Ever wondered what Conway's game of life would look like with bloom and a transition animation? Neither have i.



It uses shaders, and canvases.

Controls:
-Space: Toggle simulaation
-s: Step simulation
-escape: Quit
-c: Clear map (kills all cells)
-R: Nothing.

Blur shaders by slime.

I love that stuff.
Here's my heart beat creation:

The game of life can be pretty mesmerizing. The desaturation when it's paused is a nice touch, too.

I applied modifications to make veethree's program compatible with the current version (0.10.0) of Love... see attached.

The necessary changes are tagged with this comment:

It's really cool, the update is nice though.

Nicely polished and looks very cool, good job.

This is very cool! I really like the glowing tiled look and the subtle animations! I think something that would be neat is if the canvas edges looped back around, so if you can have things pass through one edge to another.
