(I haven't programmed for too long. Thought it would be a good idea to get back into it by coding the Conway's Game of Life in Rust. Could have coded something else but I am not creative enough to think of any worthy project idea.)

Purpose of this project was to code something in Rust already.

I chose to code Game of Life for the first time in my life while using a game engine that doesn't have a GUI. I've done neither before, valuable experience.

This is just Game of Life, nothing super interesting, but you can:

• set window size and grid resolution inside the main.rs file
• pause the game by pressing Space
• speed the game up by holding LShift
• draw live cells with LMB
• unalive live cells with RMB 😈
• unalive ALL cells by pressing C 😈😈😈

• Zooming and panning
• Next step
• Current generation, live cells
