Up, Down, Left, Right - Move

Goal

There is no goal. This is just a demo to see how the raycasting technique works (in a general sense).

Homework

If you're feeling adventurous, you can try to make this into a game somehow. What I've done in the past is make it a maze game, where the user has to try to find the finish. For competition, you might time the user to see how long it takes them.
