Each cell is a simple virtual machine with its own genome (program). Each instruction decreases the energy of the cell. When the energy drops below zero, the cell dies. Cells can receive energy from the sun (upper half of the map). When the energy rises above the threshold, the cell can reproduce. When a cell reproduces, the genome of its offspring mutates randomly.
Each cell has 4 general purpose registers and 64 bytes of RAM.
