µLife is a blazingly fast version of the classic Life cellular automation
simulation. Cells live and die in a virtual universe by strict rules:
-- If a cell has more than 3 neighbors, it dies of over-crowding
-- If a cell has less than 3 neighbors, it dies of loneliness
-- If an empty cell has exactly 3 neighbors, a new cell is born
From these simple rules, complex patterns evolve. Fascinating to watch.
MicroLife *requires* a color-capable Macintosh with a 256 color 13" or greater
monitor.
µLife may be freely distributed provided this text file is included with it.
