Description
This is TOY not a game. You can create cool looking islands with a few clicks of the mouse. It uses Conway's Game of Life to "grow" the land. Try it out!
How to Play
Click the mouse to place a seed. Place several seeds and watch your island grow. Also try out the Destroy button for making big beaches, coves and lakes.

Pretty sure what you're supposed to do is click a few times and watch an island pop up!

I like it although after a few click it becomes kinda boring.. Would it be possible a little more control over what grows, add population? Make it more real :P
For sure, that's what I'd like to do. This was done in 24 hours at a game jam so adding that other stuff will need a bit more time :-)

It would be nice to have something to do instead of clicking a couple of times...

it needs a brush size
I actually tried out a bunch of brush sizes and densities and found out that this was the optimum size for island creation.

Very interesting concept (I'm not kidding). It uses Convay's game of life algorythm, you say? The landscape is forming incredibly! One suggestion: Make bigger resolution (if you can) Because it's very pixelated!
Thanks! I actually tried higher resolution bit it was slowing down a lot as the code isn't very optimised. I could spend longer on that aspect though to improve it probably.
