Good scifi. Strong alien vibe. Reminds me of Dark City.

Tends to get spindley but maybe that's just my phone

8690 with a non-zero flip probability has a fun little effect I call "whoomph"

8690 with a high flipProb, "stable explosion" preset, is like a fuse -

be patient and it 'explodes'.

Very fun!

(Edit: apparently the fuse can 'die off' but the thing still eventually explodes)

I'd love to see it with more than one type of stem cell and also some kind of apoptosis.
