Re: Conway's game of life

The ability to add cells while the simulation is running is actually pretty fun. I could see a possible game mechanic there where you need to coax some cells in equilibrium to move across the board to fight some kind of viral infection or something.

Re: 2D Blender animation tests

Ah cool, I should have searched before post my topic about spine vs blender . As for a data format for a custom blender exporter, maybe we could conform to Spine's json data format .

Spine vs Blender?
