If you're mesmerized by the "Game of Life" like I am your going to enjoy the Continuously Domain versions like smooth life. Check out the video[0], and an implementation in python[1] on HN.

Well done! Have you considered a menu to change the automata rules?
Thank you :). Yes I have considered it, I will maybe implement it later if this project is liked by the community.
I'm always surprised by how few programmers are familiar with the Game of Life. It used to be that anyone with a degree in Comp Sci would have come across it at some point in their education -- maybe it's a casualty of the shift from hard computer science to software development?
"Life? Don't talk to me about life." ;)
