Thank you for the links. The closest I've seen to what I'm doing with SproutLife is an iteration of Langton's loops which were developed in 1984 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langton%27s_loops#:~:text=Lang....

Here is a video where these loops compete - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGRPwuVvErs&list=LL&index=14...

SproutLife is a passion project for me. I would like to give attention to previous works, and more importantly highlight some kind of practical benefits that studying alife has. We are surrounded by living evolving structures, and having a better mathematical concept of this can be pretty useful which is essentially what alife give us.
