This page is the central documentation site for the Interactive Game of Life (IGoL) Kit from Evil Mad Science.


Main details about the Game of Life Kit:


Kit assembly and usage instructions:

  • The IGoL kit is an easy through-hole soldering kit. Our heavily-illustrated assembly guide walks you through the process.
(A) IGoL Manual-- PDF version, 18 MB. (Trouble Viewing? Please click here.)
(B) IGoL Manual-- Page by page "HTML" Version


Open Source Hardware documentation:

  • IGoL is an open source hardware+software project. The hardware designs are licensed under the TAPR OHL.
  • The IGoL kit is based on Octolively hardware.
  • The circuit board design is in gEDA. Hardware design files are available on the main Octolively page.
  • Octolively circuit schematic alone available here: octolively_ref.pdf
  • Source code repository: Hosted at Github


Additional resources:

  • The Wikipedia article on Conway's Game of Life is an excellent general introduction to the subject.
  • The Interactive Game of Life kit can be modified into an Octolively; please see here for details.
