WiiLife: Conway's Game of Life for the Wii |
Listed in: Wii Tags: Wiimote
Ó
Conway's Game of Life is a pretty popular game - if you can call it a game. It's a cellular automation program which has become a popular concept in mathematics, philosophy, biology, and a lot of other fields because of the concepts behind it. Now, Wiibrew developer drei000 has translated the game on to the Wii in WiiLife.
This is the program's first release, so it's still a little buggy and may crash once in a while. The rules of Game of Life - and, in effect, WiiLife - are simple, effective, and total. There are only four, but they are the foundation of creating complex patterns:
- Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies, as if by loneliness.
- Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies, as if by overcrowding.
- Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives, unchanged, to the next generation.
- Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours comes to life.
