DESCRIPTION​
The game of life is actually a cellular automaton devised by the mathematician John Horton Conway in 1970.
It's sort of a virtual world where many cells are living.
They reproduce and die under certain conditions.
This game does not need the player itself (kind of zero-player game), but we can make it more interactive by adding special patterns that will evolve in specific ways, or by changing the rules of the world, for instance.
The main features of my implementation are:
¤ Play / Pause / Reset / Random Buttons
¤ Changing the speed
¤ Changing the size of the world
¤ The world is shaped like a torus
¤ Changing the color:
- United
- Random
- Gradient
¤ Changing the shape of cells (11 available)
¤ Become master of the world by changing the rules:
- 12 predefined rules
- Create your own rules
¤ Library patterns (over 50):
- Oscillators
- Ships
- Guns
- Space fillers
- Other
¤ Possibility of sending patterns by email
¤ Create life or destroy it, simply by touching the screen!
For any bug, suggestion or information contact me at:

Awesome idea. Just read about this game of life in a Stephen Hawkings book.

Hahaha, I just had an idea:
What about a live wallpaper? You might have to make it look nicer and less dominant, but it would be fun and kinda nerdy, if you always had those "organisms" reproducing in the background

You're not the first to tell me that.
I will start creating a live Wallpaper.
But what do you mean about "make it look nicer and less dominant" ?

I love Game Of Life.I even made a (newbie) javascript version of it... Thx for the great app! The Live Wallpaper idea is actually pretty nice. If you do it, I'll surely give it a try.

Well, right now, I would not want it as my wallpaper. It looks nice as an app, but a wallpaper should be more "beautiful" and/or simple. After all, it is supposed to be the background.
Imagine your app design with other widgets and icons over it, the whole screen would look quite overloaded. Do you get what I mean? (english ain't my native language )
But you could keep the mechanism of the app for customizing the colours and so on.
I don't even know if I would actually use it. Depends on how it will look. So, if you got other stuff to do, do that first. The wallpaper is not really a high priority for me. I just like the app and the idea itself.

Over all the game play is not much attractive but still its fine. 6/10

I do not quite understand... Customization of the background and the cells color is already available on the app'...

thanks a lot for this app'.
When would you release the LiveWallpaper ?
I'm so excited

Be patient
I'm developping it.
But it will last at least 2weeks...
Tell me what kind of feature you would like to have on this wallpaper (new features of course) or anything else.

Haha, love!! I had to program a version of this myself in my first year at university and had forgotten all about it! As others have said, would be a pretty good idea as a Live Wallpaper but would obviously need some sort of loop on there incase all the cells died or just became stable blocks... otherwise it could quickly become a rather dull wallpaper

Don't worry.
A shake or a tap will randomize or add living cells

}
Update 1.0.1:
- Fixed multiple screen support: better look on mdpi screens, fullscreen mode on xlarge screens.
- Toss physics improved, now it is more responsive to fast flings. Other physical parameters have been adjusted to keep the game difficulty at the same level.
- Added gradually increasing difficulty in the arcade mode.
- Sensor levels are marked as such in the level list and show a special mark on the disc base.
- Back key returns from options and level selection menus.
- Added fly-in notifications, such as "difficulty up" and "secret unlocked". Will be used for achievements too.
- Added drum sound on level start and difficulty increase.
- Click sound removed from Stage 3.
Update 1.0.2:
- Achievements!
- Internally, more gears and levers to maintain achievements, triggers and events.
Update 1.0.3:
- Fixed achievements display for older droids (2.1 or less).
- Added features: guest mode*, move to SD.
- Level 6 renamed and simplified.
- Removed 4 boring achievements.
- Under the hood: minor bugfixes, major refactoring, full-version forward compatibility and code obfuscation.
- Content rating: low maturity
*What is guest mode?
All records, achievements and unlocks earned in the guest mode will be reverted when the mode is off again. It is useful if your friend wants to play the game, and you do not want him or her to mess up with your progress. Guest mode will be automatically switched off when game exits or can be switched on/off from the options menu.
Update 1.0.3.2:
- Removed code obfuscation because of FCs.
Update 1.0.5:
Full version RELEASE!
- Start message not displayed when level is restarted/replayed
- More Games button in Options menu linked to the Android market
- Code obfuscation fixed
- Bug fix: wall collision sound when disc has no velocity
- Bug fix: disc control after been teleported
- Other level-scripting related bugfixes
Update 1.0.5.1:
- Bug fix: level hints never displayed

Kudos! This is really fun. No issues on my Xperia X10. It is pretty hard to fling the disc quickly though. Great job!
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App

Runs happily on my Galaxy Tab, albeit not in fullscreen. Seems to work ok, seem to need to drag the disc about a bit to build up speed, just flinging it straight out causes it to move quite slowly (as kxhawkins has observed).
Nice and simple, good to see a new twist on the Breakout theme.
Here's a live link for it:
https://market.android.com/details?id=xrbpowered.android.discanoid&feature=search_result

On edit, it seems to pause and partially reload when going from portrait to landscape. Don't know if that's just my firmware/ROM though.

Thanks a lot!
The toss-physics is explainable: there is an elastic bond between the disc and the finger instead of a firm grip, you can see it while trying to "wobble" the disc. Most people are confused as they do not expect that. I probably need to do something about it.

That's a funny bug, something sneak-removed the "portrait" flag from the app's manifest lol. In the next update it'll be okay.

Update 1.0.1b
I have published an update that fixes all known bugs.
The physics has been modified too. Is it better now?

Definitely better playability with the last update!

Update 1.0.2b
Finally, the achievements are there!
They look better on Android 2.3 because of this sweet ColorFilter class that I like so much. Screenshot has been made using 2.1 on emulator, and it's still not bad, isn't it?
I think the beta will end in about a week or two. Everyone who plays Discanoid during this period will receive a unique achievement!
Enjoy!

Great game!
Works wonderful on MT4G, really cool game, thanks man!

Physics are much better. I'm still stuck on stage 6 - tap me, though. I just don't get it.
Thanks a ton, dev. Great game.

Thanks for the great game =). Had no problems with my DHD CM7.
Wasn't that easy to get behind stage 6 but after you know what to do, it is not that difficult to complete.

Try to complete the "Achievements" - it is a lot of fun too. And not easy at all

Thanks for the feedback. I will consider making this level a bit easier, and I think I need to change the name and start message. Tap-launches do not help much after the physics been updated.
Here's a hint: Disc grip has area of effect (displayed by a circle under your finger). When the disc just touches this area with its edge, it gets "sucked" in, where possible. And where impossible... well... probably that's enough to know

Updates 1.0.3b and 1.0.3.2b
I have published an update which caused lots of FCs and stressful bug-fixing time.
The problem was in ProGuard code obfuscation (which probably renamed onClick methods in the main activity class). I have temporarily removed it and re-published the update as 1.0.3.2b. Now it should work.
Sorry for the inconvenience!
It worked on my device tho... I still do not understand why. Maybe because I replaced the old version instead of fully reinstalling it.....

Thanks for the update! No force close problems in this version.

Wow! I found it quite difficult while testing.
Okay, there will be more challenge in the full version. However, my target is maximum fun, not maximum difficulty
Soon I'm gonna try update 1.0.3.3 with fixed obfuscation, and if it works, I will make a release.
Here are some sneak-peek screenshots of the full-version features I am currently working on. From left to right:
- Timer targets will explode when counter reaches 0.
- Grinders move around the levels and will shred the disc upon contact.
- Tesla towers (my favorites!) cast lightnings at a limited distance. Lightnings may hit targets and triggers through the walls; use the disc to conduct the charges.
- Breakable bricks are here to bring some real "Breakout" mood.

Release!
Full version has been released!
48 new levels, lots of cool features! 55 achievements!

[APP][Update 2012/08/08] Money is time

Hi People,
I recently started writing apps for Android and I'm very curious what you think of my first app.
A little while ago I was eating a candy bar from the vending machine at work, and I was wondering how many minutes I actually had to work in order to be able to pay for that candy bar. At that moment, I came up with the idea to make an money to time converter.
Money Is Time
Features
Money to time conversion
Time to money conversion
User friendly interface by picker wheels
Supports money up to 99,999.99
Supports up to 24 currency signs like; $, £, € and ¥
Supports time up to about year
Supports both 24/7 scale or working hours
Stopwatch mode where time and money are incremented automatically.
Timer mode where time and money are decremented automatically.
Ability to set the wage per hour / day / week / month
Supports both portrait as landscape view.
Wake lock implemented

Thank you very much for your feedback!

Great idea! It would be cool if you could enter weekly or hourly wage information and if you could both swipe numbers to change them as well as tap on the selected numbers to enter them on a keypad.

Thanks for the QR code! makes it so easy to get the app

Thanks people for your feedback and positive comments so far!
At this moment I've received the following feature requests:
- Ability to fill-in weekly or hourly wage information.
- Ability to choose between swipe or just enter the numbers via the keypad.
- Ability to reset both money and time to zero with a button.
- Ability to set custom currencies.
I'm really gonna work on the items listed above and hope to upload an upgrade sometimes soon.
If there are more requests bugs or just sometime you want to share about this app, please let me know. I'm very curious what you think about this app!
@psycho_maniac: You're welcome, I really appreciate it when people want to help me improve my app. Posting a QR code is the least i could do

Really Creative
Wonderful app. I think if you can make the app run on its own according to a particular setting, will be a good idea. Just a thought.

Nice idea for an app
but have a bug. I run a screen density of between 180 and 200 and the app don't like this
screen shot was taken at 200 screen density.

Feature request:
It would be fun if you could set an amount, per hour/day/month/etc, whichever really, and start the timer. While the timer is ticking, you'd see the money wheel ticking live how much you make each second. And even if you exit the app and start it again a couple of hours later, the app remembers the time/date you exited it, reads the current time and adjusts the sum that you've made so far.

Hi
Thanks for finding this bug. It's very strange, because it looks like android can't decide what screen it is LDPI MDPI HDPI.
On which device and android version did you encounter this problem? My emulator with 200 DPI does show the app correctly.
Thanks a lot!

Hmmzz, that's weird, maybe there was a hick-up on the android market. Is it still not working when you click on the link?
I just checked and everything here worked as it should.

Options for the timer function
I'm currently busy updating my app with most of the requests I've received.

Version 2.0
I've released version 2.0 today and added the following requests:
- Ability to fill-in weekly or hourly wage information.
- Ability to reset both money and time to zero with a button.
- Ability to set custom currencies. (I've added 20 currency signs)
- Ability to run the app on its own.
I've also added a landscape view so it can be viewed in portrait and landscape instead of portrait alone. Besides adding landscape view I've paid extra attention to the layout to support as much resolutions as possible.
I hope you like the new version! Comments, bugs requests are still more than welcome!!

Version 2.1
I've released version 2.1 and added the following requests:
- Ability to fill-in daily or weekly wage information.
- Timer mode where money and time is automatically decremented.
- Support of HD phones and tablets.
Besides releasing the free 2.1 version I've released a paid version which has;
- No advertisements
- Ability to set a notification sound / vibrate when the timer reaches 0.
I hope you like the new versions! Comments, bugs requests are still more than welcome!!

Thanks
:good:You did listen to what we have to say. In my own book, that makes you a good developer. Thanks for the update.

Yes it supports cut & paste from a spreadsheet or anywhere else you can copy or cut from. I noticed that the data on the spreadsheet has to be horizontal because of the new line character. I will now fix that so the app can process vertical data.
For the 'mode' thing i will check it.

BACKGROUND
Hi,
more than 6 years ago (I was 18 to that time) I developed my first Android app which happened to be a blood alcohol calculator, because to that time I personally saw the need for a proper app for that matter, LOL (I'm a German, you know...). This project has grown over the while, and after I've had quite a long pause from working on this project (more than two years), I now refocused on it and brought my app into the year 2018.
AlcDroid is more or less popular in Germany, occasionally getting name-dropped in some German articles from newspaper media or whatever, especially now when it comes to Christmas and New Year and everybody's about to drink a ****-ton of alcohol. And even though Germany is not the only place where there's party at Christmas and New Year and stuff, it is less popular in other parts of the world though, so I would love to read what for example the English-speaking community has to say. This may sound a bit naive, since an alcohol testing app might be considered as rather simple and universal, but there are some things I do not know too much about, like units (fluid ounces and stuff), and while I have implemented those features in theory, I am not too confident about how they turn out in "real life".
So let's get to the fancy part of feature lists, download links and landing pages.
FEATURES
* intuitive, slick interface following Material Design guidelines
* day / night mode (dark and light theme)
* notification widget
* line chart showing blood alcohol content metabolism
* detailed stats (weeks, months, years)
* takes many individual factors like age, gender, height and weight into account
* supports presets for a fast and intuitive usage
* can be used immediately, no lengthy configuration needed
* supports different units in size, weight, drink volume etc.
* drinking history (keep earlier dates)
DOWNLOAD
* Find AlcDroid Alcohol Tester on Google Play.
* Find the app website here.

Cool! Gonna try this out today

Looks great!
Problem that I found is that I can't enter fractions into the percent field, and sometimes when adding drinks, the graph isn't updated, just when I try to zoom it.
Some suggestions:
The graph could be automatically sized, when changes made to the inputs, to be entirely visible, not to start in the middle, and actually see the end of it too. And it seems that the vertical axis has problems too. (after testing big values, it doesn't seem to reset to smaller scale)
On my display (SGS, 4", 480x800) the graph screen isn't displayed entirely, so it is scrollable. This way it's a little hard to pinch&zoom the graph.
Maybe moment of calculation should be movable by scrolling the graph horizontally.
The interface is nice, but could you make a dark version too? (for AMOLED screens you know)

Thanks for your replies.
I will add "fraction support" in the next version. I wanted to prevent the user from inserting higher numbers than 99 and thus limited the field to a maximum length of 2 digits - but now I also think that this is kinda unnecesarry and being able to insert fractions seems to be more important to me now as well. I can also make use of a InputFilter, though I think that this is not that relevant.
The graph yet is only vertically auto-sized (y-axis). I think of adding such a "auto-sizing"-function to the x-axis as well. However, the graph's main task is to give a rough overview of the "time management" in AlcDroid - to inform the user where the day "starts" and "ends" and to visualize where one can add drinks.
When adding big values the y-scale actually should go up to a maximum of 6‰. On my device this seems to work flawlessly. Can you make a screenshot of the bug on your device?
And are you serious? You are able to scroll through and zoom into the graph? Actually I thought that I disabled those features... well, I'll have a look on it again.
Adding a dark interface shouldn't be such a big problem as well, I will think of adding this sooner or later.
Thanks again for the feedback and the suggestions!

Actually I was considering the max 6‰ of the Y axis an error. I entered a vast amount of alcohol for testing. The calculated value went up to 32.72‰, but the maximum of the curve was still at 6. As it does on your screenshot as well. But I guess that's not a real use case Considering that according to the description, even 4 can cause death.
And yepp, although it's extra hard because the scrolling of the whole layout, I can zoom vertically and horizontally too. Scrolling was only a suggestion.

I finally could motivate myself to continue working on AlcDroid again. You can now enter float values into the percent fields. And I added a dark design, though this was maybe the most unnecessary feature to add. Maybe TotalD3str4ct can check out out himself if he even reads this. I also fixed a few small bugs and added a new button.
I think I am now going to continue working on this app more frequently again. There are still quite a few things to do.

I made a huuuuuge update today. Check it out. I hope, there are not many bugs left. If so, please help me find them.

Push. Some feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Dark theme is a necessity to me. I try not to touch apps that don't have one. Plus in the club, the dimmer the screen, the better.

I made a mini update yesterday. Fixed a small bug, improved a few things and finally made a paid ad-free pro version for AlcDroid.

Do you have plans to make a dark theme version available?

No concrete plans, no. But I'll think of it in future releases for sure, yes!

Dark theme now available. Test it now.
(Graphic bug from the delete button corners is a Android problem which is fixed since Android 3.0.)

Did a (quite huge) update again.
What's new:
- more accurate: new settings making BAC calculation much more accurate (start time, end time, absorption delay)
- more than one day support: archive and review your drinking history
- more information: see some detailed stats about your drinking history
- more beautiful: improved dark theme
- more up-to-date: notification bar widget
... and more.
Take a look at the new dark theme directly compared to the old from above:
