CELLivilization: Civilization implemented in Microsoft Excel

We all know that Excel is Turing-complete, which means that, if runtime and memory are not issues, you can implement anything that a computer can do, in Excel. Just because you can doesn’t mean you should. Excel is an abomination.

I’m not familiar with game development in particular, but I generally take a lot of issue with the sentiment, implicitly expressed here, that the hardest thing about developing software is learning the syntax of your language/development environment. That is the least hard part of developing software.
