Given the theme "Minimalism", I decided to create a minimalistic strategy game where the rules of Conway's Game of Life determine the lifetime of units. The twist here is that YOU get to control your own colony of life forms and beat the other three.
If you feel like you have no idea what you're doing (which is understandable), have a look at these patterns:

Try to get a feel for how patterns act and you will be able to create patterns that "walk" to the enemies to finish them off and take over enemy units!
