In the Game of Life, a "Still Life" is a configuration that does not change from one generation to the next. They are the stable "matter" of this digital universe.

Tiny changes lead to completely different worlds.

Draw a pattern, press play, and see what unfolds.
Hmm, what to print...

Conway’s Game of Life With Physical Buttons
https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://hackaday.com/2026/03/20/conways-game-of-life-with-physical-buttons/
As a hobby thing I'm trying to code Conway's Game of Life for an Adafruit RP2040 + HDMI stick I got recently and it has me wondering what could be done with making the cells different shapes: hexagons, triangles, anything else that fits neatly in each other, what other cool shapes and behaviors can you get with similar conditions?
I wish my ADHD would actually let me work consistently on this, this has been a fun thought experiment of how to structure this

If you're going to do a bit, may as well dive right in.
What's the difference between a test harness, a puzzle game and the TUI interface to whatever the heck it is this thing is going to be?
Ideally just where the holes are
Is it Conway's law that predicts a fella like me would end up making a game about verifying what crosses boundaries?
