How does your game fit the theme?
In the game, you only set the initial conditions on the grid of cells. After pressing play, you can no longer control anything. Instead, a simulation unfolds, with each cell behaving based on its own set of rules.

Very cool puzzle game! Innovative design, great puzzle design and great work pulling this off in a game jam. The potential is endless for a game like this
Not only is this an insane cellular simulation, but the puzzle design complements the mechanics really well and makes it into an amazing game! Awesome job, my brain is still shocked :)
I loved this game! I like how quickly you can reset things to try again, and how fast it is to learn new mechanics! The sound reminded me of Archon, an old NES game, so that was a fun nostalgia trip as well. Great work!
I love all the mechanics! This game was also really well polished, and had no shortage of levels, something I know can take awhile to make. Good job, and I'd love to see the devlog of this if you were planning to make one.
Really nice game and puzzles! Some of them are pretty hard, especially when you have to think several steps ahead.
Really polished game and great core mechanic, I also like how when you press play you are then "out of control"! The audio really fit the art style as well! Overall, I really enjoyed playing!
Absolutely love this entry! Very nice concept, extremely well executed, and really nails that sweet spot of having simple rules that lead to complex consequences, paired with a perfect difficulty curve that introduces things slowly, but had me properly thinking by the end! And lovely graphics to boot!
(p.s. that last level was extremely satisfying)
Nice puzzles, unfortunately 14+ levels were too hard for me. Very polished game, the sound effects are really good.
It is cool idea to have puzzles, that you don't fully control and so they can do some pretty crazy stuff.
Interesting puzzle and nice pixel art!
It seems like the concept "set initial conditions, then let game compute the rest" is very popular in the jam -- in fact, it made a puzzle game around the same principe, but with 3d physics :)
Really cool puzzle game. Impressive for only 48 hours! Presentation and the first tutorial levels are golden.
This literally ranks in one of my top puzzle games, presentation is so simple, its easy to play and understand, add more a tiny bit more polish and it could go out into the steam market place.
