Conway's Game of Life in 3D

Project Content

This interactive 3D implementation of Conway's Game of Life features a 30x30 grid where each cell is represented as a cube. Living cells glow white against a dark background, creating a mesmerizing cellular automaton simulation. The game follows the classic rules of Conway's Game of Life, where cells live, die, or are born based on their neighbors.

Interaction Guide

  • Interactive 3D grid with orthographic view
  • Click cells to toggle them between alive (white) and dead (dark)
  • Play/Pause controls to control the simulation
  • Reset to generate a new random pattern
  • Clear to start with an empty grid
  • Smooth animation with optimized rendering
