Lab

A collection of interactive experiments, simulations, and visualizations exploring the same ideas behind Tactiko — emergence, strategy, and complexity from simple rules. Built for curiosity — no sign-up required.

Conway's Game of Life

Interactive cellular automaton simulator. Draw patterns, load presets like Gosper's Glider Gun, and watch complexity emerge from simple rules.

Prisoner's Dilemma

Explore the classic game theory scenario — cooperate or defect? See how strategies evolve in iterated tournaments.

Pathfinding Visualizer

Watch A*, Dijkstra, BFS, DFS, and Greedy Best-First find paths through mazes. Draw walls, generate mazes, compare algorithms step-by-step.

Sorting Algorithms

Watch sorting algorithms work step by step — bubble sort, quick sort, merge sort, heap sort, and more. Interactive visualization with speed controls and educational content.

Generative Art

Algorithmic art experiments using noise fields, particle systems, and mathematical functions.

Elementary Cellular Automata

Explore all 256 rules of 1D cellular automata — from Rule 30's chaos to Rule 110's Turing completeness.

AI Decision Visualizer

See how Tactiko's football AI evaluates every grid position. Interactive heatmap showing defensive man-marking, zone control, attacking runs, and personality-driven behavior.

These experiments share a core idea with Tactiko: simple rules creating rich, strategic depth. In the game, basic player moves generate complex football tactics — just like cellular automata and game theory.
