dexvt-gpgpu-ping-pong-technique is a GPGPU Ping-pong technique demonstration.
See sister project demonstrating shader features: dexvt-test
- Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies
- Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives on
- Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies
- Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours becomes a live cell
- Prune maze walls from endpoints
- Grow maze walls without changing topology
- Build distance field from every cell on grid to cursor location
- Guide individual sprites along distance field gradient
(NOTE: steps 1 & 2 are not necessary for maze solving)
