A simple [raycasting engine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_casting), like the one used for [Wolfenstein 3D](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfenstein_3D), written in Python using the [SDL graphics library](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_DirectMedia_Layer).
Install SDL libs for Python and PNG lib (required for texture loading):
```
pip install pysdl2 pysdl2-dll pypng
```
## Run
Run with
```
./raycaster.py
```
## Context
Being this an educational project (done to teach myself SDL and how a raycasting engine works), the performances are pretty bad. The code is written to be documental, more than efficient. I decided to keep the various milestones in different folders (v1, v2, v3...) instead of relying on git versioning to allow easier compare between different milestones.
