cub3D

This project is inspired by the classic game Wolfenstein 3D, which is considered to be the first true FPS in gaming history.

Bonus Features

  • Mini-Map: A top-down view that shows the layout of the labyrinth, your current position, and your viewing direction. This is especially useful for navigation and strategy planning.
  • Enhanced Collision: Unlike many traditional raycasting games where the player can get stuck on walls, cub3D implements an advanced collision algorithm.Even when colliding with a wall, the player can continue moving along the wall smoothly without getting stuck. This makes for a more fluid and realistic movement experience.
