Quite a bit done here, but a lot of progress, and I think I’m almost ready to ship.

• I added a counter for the generation. It isn’t very useful, but still nice to have.
• I found the idea of a menu to be unnecessary, so I made a little 10-pixel tall statusline that shows the running status, current generation, and FPS. Quite easy to make, I just added 10 to the window height and then wrote a function to put text on that strip.
• I added some new keybinds:
  • The g key can be pressed to toggle the grid (forgot to show it in the video, unfortunately).
  • The t key can be pressed to change the theme.
• I added themes! Because the Board.draw() method was already flexible, this was very straightforward. First, I got ChatGPT to generate a list of themes (nothing more). Then, I made a new variable to keep track of the current theme index. That variable gets increased when the t key is pressed, and then the keys of the theme are bassed to the Board.draw() method.

To conclude, I think I am very close to finally shipping this small project! I will continue to make some more small changes and improvements.
