RayCast3D is a 3D Game Engine for Nintendo 3DS / PSVITA which runs under [Lua Player Plus 3DS](https://github.com/Rinnegatamante/lpp-3ds) / [Lua Player Plus Vita](https://github.com/Rinnegatamante/lpp-vita).

It uses [RayCasting algorithm](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_casting) to generate a 3D world starting from a 2D map. It runs fullspeed on N3DS even with best accuracy values.

On O3DS it runs pretty good with accuracy value >= 2.

Features

  • Different tile size maps support
  • Automated camera and player position management
  • No restrictions on maps sizes
  • Support for sky and floor rendering (still choppy at the moment)
  • Automated minimap renderer with player position
  • ShootCasting feature to easily build FPS and similars
  • Textured walls support
  • Customizable FOV
  • Walls collision detection
  • Shading support for shadows, fogs and similar effects
