I made this Conway's Game of Life clone last night as I was procrastinating other work and I think it turned out quite well. The 'innovation' here is that any cell that's on the board more than one 'frame' cycles its colour, making the board a bit more interesting.
Shoutout to this tutorial that helped me with camera and summing issues.
How will I turn this into a real game? I still don't know. But I will try and update you guys when I do :D
