Development

In the future I will offer several language-related downloads, and it will depend on your input for which languages GridLife will be localized (because other than German and English language, I am not able to help). If you feel that something important is missing in GridLife, and I'll think about an implementation if I like the idea.

Though I've tested the software thoroughly, there still might be some nasty bugs left. If you find one, please send me a detailed description. Given I can reproduce the bug, you'll get a special version of GridLife mentioning your honorable support in the application's about box, and of course I will praise your name on this page :-)

If you want to tell me how much you love GridLife (preferred) or me for making it (much preferred) or found some bugs or want to voice your opinion, just send an email to .
