Thanks!

for a early-alpha working version using hashlife (newer than 0.7), see
https://github.com/programmerjake/hashlife3d
I'm currently working (really slowly due to spending most my time on
Libre-SOC) on rewriting the core hashlife algorithm to be multithreaded
using a work-stealing scheduler:
https://github.com/programmerjake/parallel-hashlife-rust
for a decently playable (think Minecraft pre-1.0) old game version written
in C++ -- doesn't use hashlife (the previously mentioned project with
incomprehensible occasional random crashes):
https://github.com/programmerjake/voxels-0.7
compiled versions for Linux, Windows, and Android:
