Controls

Configurations

At the top of the main.go file you will find all the configurations. Change their value to change the functionality of the game.

They currently look like this.

var (
	title           = "Game of life"
	windowResizable = false
	fps             = 10
	cellSize        = 10.0
	cellAmount      = 50
	padding         = 1.0
	cellColor       = colornames.Darkcyan
	backgroundColor = colornames.Lightcyan
)

Here is an example with different colors.
