Theme
The game is inspired by Conway's Game of Life, a cellular automaton. The cyclic nature of cellular automatons combined with the analogy of the structures with life organisms (which are born, live and die) matches the CYCLES team well.

Fun game. I think it's got the same issue as Conway's Game of Life had though, in that if the player hasn't looked at the rules for how the cells interact, it becomes really counter-intuitive. That might be a good thing to put on the game page.
