I want to show you some cool findings and new implementations of life on the hex world.

I found some hexagonal gliders through this page

This is a gif of "joe life, described on that page, implemented on the hex world. I'll upload this soon along with some other updates to hex.world.

That page also links to this paper,
http://www.complex-systems.com/pdf/15-3-4.pdf
which shows different kinds of hexagonal gliders in conway-like rulesets.

Here's the fishy found in life Born 3/ Survive 2,4,5 swimming around the hex world.

Upcoming: Langston's ant. It's done but the videos are long and I've been working on them for a while.
Here's just one of a huge number of cool langston's ants on the hex world.
