[Example Request] Conway's Game of Life for Tiles #87

Open mclarkk opened 6 years ago

mclarkk commented 6 years ago

Colors would be nice, with the colors representative of time spent alive, similar to the 1D game of life light show written for the University of Michigan spiral staircase in the Bob and Betty Beyster Building. Game would run on a matrix and be projected onto the tiles.

I like the idea of game of life for the tile so I implemented a version in photons :)

I tried to make a video of it, but the tile isn't friendly to a phone camera. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfP2PwH4yS0
