Extra Notes
I know this isn't winning any awards, but me submitting this isn't about winning anything in particular. It's more about the principle.
I'm getting back into game development and decided to learn godot. I also gave myself a goal to release a game this year on Steam. Doing this was mostly meant to be a learning experience for me.
Thank you for taking the time to look at this game. If you have any feedback, please send it my way.

Using Conway's game of life for spreading was really cool! I wish I could have used my blocks to affect skeleton growth, and then maybe "winning" could be eliminating all the skeletons?
Thank you! I initially intented to do that, but I didn't have time to fix the block system (and I wanted to add spike to change things even more).
This is a really cool concept! I love Conway's game of life and this is a fun twist! I even got the 12 block oscillation pattern on my first try which was very fun and cool! I recently created a program that essentially tries to from a bunch of random cells, find a path around obstacles using only Conway's game of life. It was very cool to see this project and pretty fun!
Thank you! I've had the idea for a while to use Conway, and this felt like a decent case for it
