This is a Raycaster I created from scratch,written in Javascript that uses an unconventional algorithm I came up with. It was a fun exercise in thinking, starting at trigonometry and coding an algorithm that worked. Once I finish up a few more details in the code I will put up blog post here describing things in more detail. For now you can click the link below and play around with the raycaster engine, a very very un-optimized, zero error checking raycaster engine, but in the words of Boltr, “She chooches!”

Its name sake is due to the fact that the actual game play, graphics, levels etc. were minimally developed only to the extent needed to showcase the functionality of the game engine.
