The main goal of this this project is to create a raycaster using techniques inspired by Wolfenstein 3D.
✅ Final grade: 105/100
(Old project completed in May 2021, project details were changed in July 2021)
In this 42 project we are asked to extract information from a .cub file and use that to draw a 3D perspective of a 2D maze on the screen using raycasting principles.
Example of a valid cub file's information:
R 1920 1080
NO ./textures/greystone.xpm
SO ./textures/purplestone.xpm
WE ./textures/redbrick.xpm
EA ./textures/wood.xpm
S ./textures/sprite.xpm
