RayCast3D is a 3D Game Engine for Nintendo 3DS/PS Vita which runs under Lua Player Plus 3DS and Lua Player Plus Vita.
It uses Ray-Casting algorithm to generate a 3D world starting from a 2D map allowing to create basic 3D games without any knowledge of how 3D rendering works.
On PS Vita it runs good with accuracy values >= 3.
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.
