pi-rate14 / 2d-raycasting Goto Github PK

Implementation of a 2D ray caster.

1. Window: It is the area which will hold all the other entities, including our light source and boundaries.
2. Boundaries: These are randomly generated lines placed within the window area that will act as the obstructions for light.
3. Particle: This is a circle that projects lines in all 360 degrees. These lines are rays and the particle acts as our light source.
4. Rays: These are lines projected from the particle which act as light rays.

User can use arrow keys to move the light source around and visualise the interactions.
