PicoLife

Here is my first pico8 cart. Be gentle.
This is an implementation of Conway's Game of Life cellular automata.

There are some performance issues. I understand that manipulating individual pixels with pset isn't fast. Any tips regarding this problem are welcome.

Controls

Z: run/pause
X: add noise (if paused)
Up/Down: increase/decrease generation delay
M1: create alive cells (if paused)
M2: kill alive cells (if paused)

I've heard of Conway's Game of Life, but I haven't tried it until now. It's fun to check up on the cells while I'm multitasking. Thanks for bringing this game to Pico-8
