This is a very rudimentary simulation of a multi-colored Langton's Ant AKA a Turmite https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turmite

Controls:

Menu:
LRUD - Navigate the menu
Z - Toggle buttons on menu
X - Start simulation

Simulation:
Left - decrease simulation speed
Right - increase simulation speed
X - back to menu

Combinations to try!
-LR: this is the classic Langton's Ant automata
-LRRL: this is a symmetrical automata
-RLR: a chaotic automata that seems to have no recognizeable pattern

Let me know if you find any cool patterns :)

could you setup the game with a basic rule that does something?


@freds72 I think that was definitely something I should have implemented. Thanks for the idea :)

I think RLRLRL with bright colours looks pretty nice, this is a pretty cool looking project

I found out about the second & third rows! Makes it a lot easier, I'll tell you. This is cool! It has a large amount of patterns to make, and they'll all look cool in their own way. Good job! Thanks for the pattern, @Limon
