The world in this implementation is toroidal, meaning the top and bottom, as well as the left and right edges, are connected.

During the simulation, the history of the universe's evolution is recorded, and you can scroll to any previous state when the simulation is paused. Additionally, while the simulation is paused, you can modify the state by adding or removing living cells.

The cell plane can be cleared or randomly seeded, and you can create a new universe (with a different size) using the buttons at the top (note that large universes may slow down the simulation). You can also select from several interesting predefined universes.

Any manual changes to the state of the universe (e.g., making a cell dead or alive, clearing the plane, randomly seeding, or creating a new universe) will cause its history to be cleared.

You can control the simulation speed and zoom the cell plane by adjusting the sliders at the top.

However, the history is unbounded and may consume a large amount of memory over time.
