[Rust](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust) using

Build Instructions

Game Instructions
-----------------

![screenshot](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arcterus/game-of-life/master/game-of-life.png)

When the game starts up, you click on areas with your mouse where you'd like
cells to appear.  When you've finished making cells, hit either the `return`
key or the `p` key to watch the game run.  Both of these keys may be used
to pause the game.  If you'd like to restart the game, press `r`.

Contribute
----------

I'd appreciate any contributions, especially for fixing bugs and improving the
UI.  Contributions target the latest stable version of Rust (1.15 at the time
of writing).
