I have compiled Golly, an application for running Conway's Game of Life, and other cellular automata, for the Pandora. The official Golly page is here (I'm not affiliated at all; I just compiled/packaged it):


http://golly.sourceforge.net/


And the PND is on the repo here:


http://repo.openpand...etail&app=golly


It's been there since 2012-02-04, but I'm posting here now because I just uploaded a new version of the PND, 2.3.0.2. Changes since 2.3.0.1:

  • It's now categorized as a simulation game instead of a graphics application.
  • Perl scripting now works.


Enjoy!
 
Thanks, I've been waiting for Golly to be ported for quite a while. I was even about to try it myself, but now I don't have to thanks to you :)
 
Great stuff wdebeaum, and welcome to the boards. :)


Many thanks for introducing me to Golly, it is a superb program for messing about with cellular automata, by far the best I've used. It also works really well on the Pandora.


I'd recommend this to anyone with even slightly geeky tendencies / a passing interest in Mathematics / interest in computer history etc.


To learn a bit more about cellular automata then this is worth a read.
