🌀 Cyclic Cellular Automata (2D)

A 2D Canvas cyclic cellular automaton: adjustable N-state cycle, neighbour threshold, and Moore/Von Neumann neighbourhood produce emergent spiral and target waves in real time.

⚙ Under the hood

A 2D Canvas cyclic cellular automaton where each cell cycles through N states and advances when enough neighbours already hold the next state. Adjust the state count, neighbour threshold, and Moore or Von Neumann neighbourhood to watch spiral and target waves emerge from random noise.
