Classic [Conway's Game of Life](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%27s_Game_of_Life)

Plans

- [x] infinite field:

  - field is split into 32x32 (or 64x64) blocks, where each line in a block is an integer number, where each bit is a cell

  - the whole field is a dict where keys are block coordinates and values are blocks  

    See [models.py](game_of_life/models.py) for inner implementation of the game field.

- [x] game loop

- [ ] implement gui using [pyxel](https://github.com/kitao/pyxel)

  - [x] display field on the screen

    - [x] draw visible part of the field

    - [x] change scale with the mouse wheel

    - [x] pan field view with the middle mouse button

  - [x] controls (start/stop, step buttons)

  - [x] edit with the mouse, clear the field

  - [ ] add a help screen

- [ ] optimizations:

  - [ ] use parallelization (blocks can be processed independently, so it's possible to process subsets of blocks in different threads/processes)

  - [ ] rewrite parts in cython?
