DESCRIPTION
Use UptoPlay to play online the game LiliCADroid: Life-Like Cellular Automata 2D and 3D.
Life-Like Cellular Automata are a concept for the iterative simulation of cell evolution. In each iteration (=generation) a cell is either in state alive or dead. To determine the state of the next generation the living neighbors in vertical, horizontal and diagonal direction are counted. The cell will be set to alive if this number meets one of a predefined set of birth rules for dead cells and survival rules for living cells.
The original concept assumes the cells to be arranged in a 2D grid. With this and the rule set dead cell born for 3 living neighbors and living cell dying for 2 or 3 living neighbors (denoted B3/S23) the popular Conways Game of Life as introduced by John Conway in 1970 results.
The concept can be extended to a 3D grid and to more than 2 cell states. With more than 2 states a cell dies not immediately after no survival rule applies. Instead, its state decreases from generation to generation starting with the highest state (=number of states minus one) till it reaches state 0 (= dead). During dying no rules apply to the specific cell and for the neighbor count of adjacent cells it is considered dead.
LiliCADroid lets you simulate Life-Like Cellular Automata on your Android device.

Comments:
Really awesome aside from slight UI issues. Only app of its kind. Would benefit from a video tutorial and ability to save states.
Looks nice. Now I need to read the doc.'
