Little Life

Made for Ludum Dare 56.

You are a virus and your goal is to reach the target while avoiding the cells.

You move through the grid one step at a time.

Every time you take a step, some cells will appear and other cells will disappear all over the grid.

If you land in a tile where there is a cell you die!

Move by clicking one of four tiles around you or the tile you are on. Confirm your move by clicking the step button, which will cause you to move and the cells to act.

The cells follow the rules of Conway’s Game of Life:

• Each tile checks the 8 tiles around it to decide what will happen
• If an empty tile has exactly 3 cells around it, a cell will appear in that tile
• If a cell has less than 2 other cells around it, it disappears
• If a cell has more than 3 other cells around it, it disappears

Important:

• You only die if a cell appears in your tile or you step into a tile that has a cell. If you move into a tile where a cell just disappeared, you are safe!
• You can also select to remain on your own tile and let the cells act.
