A simple 2D raycasting engine built using SDL2 that simulates a day/night cycle, complete with a dynamic sky and stars. This project demonstrates basic raycasting techniques to render walls and objects, providing an interactive environment where the player can move around and explore.
- Raycasting Engine: A basic 2D raycasting engine that renders walls based on player movement and viewing angle.
- Day/Night Cycle: The time of day dynamically changes, with the sky transitioning from light blue during the day to dark blue at night. Stars appear when the night begins.
- Interactive Player Movement: The player can move forward, backward, and rotate left or right using the keyboard.
