Actually, making this wouldn't be too hard. Most difficult part would be the interface: how to put in dots, and how to display them in 3D. Game mechanics are simple, but would need to be adapted to accept the fact that there could now be up to 26 neighbours for a single dot.

Good luck trying to fill 5 GB with something that small. :)

i don't think he meant John Conway's Game of life. He meant a simulation of real life. That would probably take that size of code if it's at all achievable.
