# Rules
A cell can be alive (white) or dead (black). On each generation the following rules are applied:
1. Any alive cell with less than 2 neighbors is dead
2. Any alive cell with more than 3 neighbors is dead
3. Any alive cell with 2 or 3 neighbors keeps alive
4. Any dead cell with exactly 3 neighbors is alive
# Keys
Use the right and left mouse buttons to place/remove cells and to pan the view. Initially the game is paused.
* `SPACE` to pause/resume
* `R` to reset
* `G` to show/hide grid
* `C` to create backup
* `V` to load last backup
* `L` to load a .cells plaintext file
* `S` to save to a .cells plaintext file
