FALLING SAND ORIGINAL GAME HOW TO

These arenРІР‚в„ўt shortcomings of the game, but instead interesting artifacts of the rules of this alternate reality! Also note the impossible situations, like unequalized water levels. Note the close connection with the game of Life. Those of you that are so inclined should be able to see the simple algorithm. I think it takes away from the mysticism of the game.

Originally, I didnРІР‚в„ўt want to make this Open Source. I have implemented many, many more interactions and elements than the original version. So IРІР‚в„ўve make a version with my own rules, and the ability to write your own mods with whatever elements you create. Finally, I recognize the close connection of The Sand Game with the game of Life: Whereby, with a few very simple rules, and some starting conditions, you can create a very unpredictable outcome. I also believe that the game should be as cyclic as possible, so that environments can run and evolve for long periods of time. I tend to feel that The Falling Sand Game should be more of a Zen experience than anything else. ThatРІР‚в„ўs why I called it РІР‚СљwxSandРІР‚Сњ, although a lot of people call it РІР‚СљOwen PietteРІР‚в„ўs Falling Sand GameРІР‚Сњ. No source was available for the original, and Java isnРІР‚в„ўt my choice programming language, that I decided to start de novo with C/C++ and the cross-platform wxWidgets. Having wasted hours of productivity on the Java verison of the Falling Sand Game, I began to think of improvements that could be made from the original.
