Waste of effort - SBM Productions - 04-21-2006
I thought it'd be a good idea to code a wolfenstein 3d style raycaster with variable floor heights over 3 days. I was wrong..stupid useless engine..still has a wall glitch i can't figure out.

In coding more than anything else, it is the journey that matters. You may not have completely succeeded this time, but you've designed and implemented a working algorithm.
The fact that there was an easier way doesn't make what you've done less valuable. It means that unlike the weekend warriors using opengl to do 3d effects they don't understand, you can actualy DO it.
