# Conway's game of life
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I wanted to play around a little bit with GOL in golang and here's the
|
|
|
|
|
result. It's a simple game using
|
|
|
|
|
[ebitengine](https://github.com/hajimehoshi/ebiten/).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Build and install
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Just execute: `go build .` and use the resulting executable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You'll need the golang toolchain.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
