This is a JavaScript + Canvas implementation of Conway’s Game of Life. This is a very small “game” I wrote to play around with the design that could be used for the future Wall Art project as well as having a quick spin with Canvas and test the speeds of different browsers.
The game features a few different options for map dimensions, tile size, updating frequency, and allows the user to manually toggle the state of a tile (mouse click).
Objectives
- Prototype for Wall Art project
- Learn Canvas
