Game of Life in Pygame

Inspiration

I've been learning Python on my own throughout the semester, but this is the first time I've used Pygame. I wanted to develop something graphical, because I've actually never done that before.

What it does

It plays out Conway's Game of Life based on an initial User Inputted Grid

How I built it

I created images to use in animations that I wrote using Pygame. I used the Pygame documentation and an explanation of the Game of Life to help me.

Challenges I ran into

Understanding how to create animations in Pygame, and building the game itself were difficult.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Building something in a way that I've never done before!

What I learned

How to use Pygame, and more Python skills in general.

What's next for Game of Life in Pygame

I'm going to try to make other games in Pygame that are more complicated and look better.
