Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Alien v4.0 (Simulation)
Just discovered this artificial life simulation tool and it looks so beautiful.
It's also Open Source: https://github.com/chrxh/alien
-
Real-time AL simulation of self-replicating organisms performed on a GPU (github link in comment)
The project is open-source and can be found here: https://github.com/chrxh/alien
-
My tiny little spiders can now self-replicate. Terrifying and beautiful...
Source code and installer of the simulator: https://github.com/chrxh/alien
- Evolving creatures in a world with barriers
-
Are there any cool cellular automata I can play around with?
artificial life environment (alien-project.org) is worth checking out
-
Beta of version 4.0
the latest beta of ALIEN version 4.0 can be downloaded (or compiled) from https://github.com/chrxh/alien. It contains the following major changes:
- Alien – Explore worlds of artificial life
-
How to proceed with 2d graphics?
I am not completely against the idea of getting into 3d graphics but maybe after I finish making some stuff I am interested in. For reference when I say 2d graphics I mean something which would look like this.

Latest alpha of version 4 (download link in the description)
Here you find a Windows build of the version4 branch: https://alien-project.org/files/alien-v4-alpha6.zip (based on https://github.com/chrxh/alien/tree/version4).

Particle Life
This is much much better, but I did an implementation of this using compute shaders in Godot 4, if that's interesting to folks!

Show HN: Demo of Agent Based Model on GPU with CUDA and OpenGL (Windows/Linux)
You should work on inter-agent interaction next! It's so much fun.
I have played with this a fair amount and put a couple of my experiments in a repo- both slime mold simulation and "particle life".
Here's the repo: https://github.com/jasonjmcghee/compute-shaders
And a video of the slime mold: https://twitter.com/_jason_today/status/1663378736098738177?...
