A game consists of a playfield (gameSize) and its rules (gameRules). A rule consists of its name ("name"), a list of how many neighbors it takes to survive ("survive"), a list of how many neighbors it takes to be birthed ("birth") and optional a cells lifetime ("starve"). All ammounts of neighbours outside of "survive" and "birth" will mark a cell as dying. While "survive" and "birth" are borrowed game dynmaics borrowed from Game of Life, "starve" is rather foreign here. It is the time in steps it takes to starve a cell designated to die, set this to 0 if you don't want to use this.
