Coding Adventure - Making a Backrooms Game in Python - Exploring Ray Casting

I use python for 3D graphics! We explore creating mazes and ray casting to enable a player to walk through the maze with a 3D render. This is used to simulate a backrooms game. Overall this video is a fun way to explore maze generation and ray casting with python. The visualisation makes use of the amazing Pygame library and all files associated with this project are available on GitHub.

Thank you so much for watching! See you in the next one :)

So much talent and effort with so little subscribers? +1 sub, I'm looking forward to see more cool stuff!

[PegaFox]

This calm and comprehensive style of programming video is the type of stuff I love, great video!

[Bunnybobscodes]

Excellent video! Your channel is very underrated!

[RedstoneHair]

You deserve more subscribers, that was such a nice video, I hope I can see more videos like this explaining each step of complex problems making them easy and encrouraging to try and solve on your own. You get a sub from me mate, love and hope to see more like this content!

Great job. I'm anxious to see the next Episodes.

Hello, I really liked this video. Very well explained.
You inspired me to recreate it in C# with SDL2 and it worked! However, I don't really like the curvy walls and haven't found a good way to fix it, do you have any ideas?

Hey 👋 i have one question how do you export the maze's coordinates from the maze builder ? 4:11

[timofey]

I think you use too good formula for this simple task
Your raycast works on all sorts of surfaces, but you only use square grid with walls
With that, you can check if your ray goes on the edge of current tile, checks if there a wall and continues to go further if there's no wall

Sorry for bad explanation, but you should get the idea

I made some similar code for generating a maze, but I'd want to ask how do I get the solution to the maze, or make a traditional maze with an entrance at the top where the algorithm starts and the lower right as an exit? Can you link me your sources I'd be glad

You need to correct the fisheye effect and the warping on the edges.
