3D visualization of Conway's Game of Life, written in C

📽 Demo

3dconway-reduced.mp4

This my trial to combine 3D graphics with Conway's Game of Life and practice my C skills. The idea is to visualize the game of life in 3D space, every cube of the top layer represents a cell in the game of life. each layer represents a generation so the y axis is the time axis. colors represent the number of neighbors of each cell.

🚀 To run the simulation install raylib and run the following command:

make
