Where doesn't it give appropriate credit?

  1. The description line for the Github package reads "Gosper's HashLife in CoffeeScript"
  2. The readme says: "Cafe au Life implements Bill Gosper's HashLife algorithm."
  3. The docs say "Cafe au Life is based on Bill Gosper's brilliant HashLife algorithm."

No worries!
