Cub3D

Cub3D is a 42-school project inspired by the famous game Wolfenstein 3D, developed using the C programming language and the MinilibX library. The goal of this project is to create a simple 3D game engine capable of rendering a maze-like world and implementing basic raycasting techniques to simulate 3D visuals.
