Pixel Cells — GPU-Accelerated Artificial Life Simulation

Pixel Cells is a GPU-accelerated artificial life simulation running on a 2D grid. Each pixel can host a cell with its own energy, genes, and behavior. Cells compete for space and energy, divide, mutate, and evolve over time.

Key Features

• Configurable grid size (default 350×350) with cycled or bounded edges
• Gene matrix system (15×15) — 17 gene types controlling division, energy, and death behavior
• Dynamic solar energy model with day/night cycles
• Real-time cell inspector with live gene matrix view
• Cell import/export via JSON
• Debug overlays: sun, energy, cell borders
• Runtime parameter tuning while paused
