Vision #
The vision for bit-blossom is to become a beautiful and fun game for people to play and watch.
Much like a cellular automata, bit-blossom is as much about the wonder of abstract shapes appearing within a game more than they are about the complexity of their rules or sophistication of their visual aesthetics.
bit-blossom is a game that Arcadia eventually intends to program Raspberry Pi Pico computers to play with an LED-strip display. As an art piece, it is more interesting that visually interesting play patterns emerge from various strategies than the game necessarily being fun to play.
With that said, the intent behind creating a visual component that a human and, eventually, an agent could interact with is first and foremost to test the game itself. In the future, the goals of this project may diverge from each other.
