Photon is a game about lasers similar to cell machine with a lot, and I mean a LOT of features! You can make insane stuff with it, I'm stupid and still managed to do it! Join discord : / discord
Wolfram, in A New Kind of Science and several papers dating from the mid-1980s, defined four classes into which cellular automata and several other simple computational models can be divided depending on their behavior. While earlier studies in cellular automata tended to try to identify type of patterns for specific rules, Wolfram's classification was the first attempt to classify the rules themselves. In order of complexity the classes are: Class 1: Nearly all initial patterns evolve quickly into a stable, homogeneous state. Any randomness in the initial pattern disappears.[32] Class 2: Nearly all initial patterns evolve quickly into stable or oscillating structures. Some of the randomness in the initial pattern may filter out, but some remains. Local changes to the initial pattern tend to remain local.[32] Class 3: Nearly all initial patterns evolve in a pseudo-random or chaotic manner. Any stable structures that appear are quickly destroyed by the surrounding noise. Local changes to the initial pattern tend to spread indefinitely.[32] Class 4: Nearly all initial patterns evolve into structures that interact in complex and interesting ways, with the formation of local structures that are able to survive for long periods of time.[33] Class 2 type stable or oscillating structures may be the eventual outcome, but the number of steps required to reach this state may be very large, even when the initial pattern is relatively simple. Local changes to the initial pattern may spread indefinitely. Wolfram has conjectured that many class 4 cellular automata, if not all, are capable of universal computation. This has been proven for Rule 110 and Conway's Game of Life. These definitions are qualitative in nature and there is some room for interpretation. According to Wolfram, "...with almost any general classification scheme there are inevitably cases which get assigned to one class by one definition and another class by another definition. And so it is with cellular automata: there are occasionally rules...that show some features of one class and some of another."[34] Wolfram's classification has been empirically matched to a clustering of the compressed lengths of the outputs of cellular automata.[35] There have been several attempts to classify cellular automata in formally rigorous classes, inspired by the Wolfram's classification. For instance, Culik and Yu proposed three well-defined classes (and a fourth one for the automata not matching any of these), which are sometimes called Culik-Yu classes; membership in these proved undecidable.[36][37][38] Wolfram's class 2 can be partitioned into two subgroups of stable (fixed-point) and oscillating (periodic) rules.[39] The idea that there are 4 classes of dynamical system came originally from Nobel-prize winning chemist Ilya Prigogine who identified these 4 classes of thermodynamical systems - (1) systems in thermodynamic equilibrium, (2) spatially/temporally uniform systems, (3) chaotic systems, and (4) complex far-from-equilibrium systems with dissipative structures (see figure 1 in Nicolis' paper (Prigogine's student)).[40]
It would be pretty cool if the lasers could be given varying intensities from a continuous range of intensity values, or more realistically, an approximately continuous range of values. This, alongside a set of interaction rules between coincident lasers and/or components that would effect their intensity. I say this because it would open the door for analog computation, which very few logic sandboxes support.
Ideas: -Lasers can now be put on a mover, causing it to... shoot lasers -Lasers can activate laser-activated movers, generators, rotators, and even push blocks -Different effects with each laser color
This isn't cellular automata though, due to lack of local finite neighborhoods. Btw photon in the research of CA refers to patterns which move at a speed of 1 cell per step, or c/1, think the mover cells in Cell Machine, so it might be confusing to title this Photon
@@BlendiGoose yeah, but photon doesn't mean light in the field of cellular automata, it means something that moves as a speed of one cell distance per step of time

I don’t watch TH-cam on computer and you’re just trying to scam
@@mc_love808 lmao the game is very much real
Can I play it on a phone????
I can’t find the game, It gave me a 404 error, How do I fix this?
Nevermind, I found it
not much of a cellular automata but more of a sandbox laser wiring game because there’s no mechanics only lasers appearing and disappearing
Yea

if berd from todepond doesn't approve, it's not a cellular automata.
I'd consider it to be one.
a few weeks ago I thought of making a project where we use laser to make a computer, but apparently you beat me to the punch

Idk if this is similar but the newest version has color mixing
@@kthelemon I really appreciate the update, thanks for responding
bruh i just woke up and dreamed about 3d cell machine
3D Cell Machine would be very cool.
hmm....
@@cerulity32k are you thinking what I’m thinking? 4D CELL MACHINE!!!!1!!1!1!1!1!1
3d photon?
Interestingly designed logic simulator!
Photon? More like Phantastic; that was really cool!
More like Phat.
More like Phat Gus
@@gabenugget114 I didn’t even remember Phat Gus! I had to look it up, and only then remembered the squirrel maze videos.
Cell machine Laser edition.
mover do be paniking at the thumbnail
why did I get recommended this lmao I’m already there
light block because its about photons
Pretty cool
woowowoowowow omg is that the real monitoroetorpetoreotoertoetre ,???sertioeriotek,zirot
ayy a laser sim
I always wanted one as a kid
i wanted to dowload that, but i can't work at my comppter:(
POV: life through the eyes of the Terraria engineer
I added yellow
Where can we get the game? Or is it just through the Discord?
i'm gonna modify the pinned message to include the itch.io page hold on
Now what if we combined the two games together?
Give us some names!!!
Ideas:
-Lasers can now be put on a mover, causing it to... shoot lasers
-Lasers can activate laser-activated movers, generators, rotators, and even push blocks
-Different effects with each laser color
helo your computer has vairus
why cant i download it?
Make an enemy or in game target
i'm not the dev but i'll tell him about the idea!
Can i do it on a phone?
theres no mobile support yet
Someone give me the link pls
the link is in the pinned comment on this video, it's the itch.io one

a photon is a particle of light, the lasers, are light.

@@zackbuildit88 i mean, yeah, but as you said in your comment, it isn't cellular automata
@@BlendiGoose it's related though, so it could cause confusion. That's all I mean
