Keep grinding, bring this project to life !
Puzzle / platformer game, which combines classic 2D puzzle / platforming with software ray-tracing algorithm.
Explore and advance in the strange minimalistic world where the only "entity" you can communicate with is accessible through strange Terminals. To move forward in game and find more what's behind the curtain, you'll have to solve various puzzles, but there will be also some serious platforming parts.Â
Game geometry is minimalistic, however make no mistake. Every pixel of the game is shaded with ray-tracing algorithm. Every object and every light is taken into account correctly when computing shadows and pixel colors.
Ray-tracing is done on CPU, it means, no special GPU is needed. Game is perfectly scalable with resolution so you'll be able to play it even on most potato computers, but in high resolutions you can make sweat even the most powerful CPUs out there and ask >>Â "Can it run RTG?"

One of the final levels of the game. This time no puzzle, only arcade and substantially hard (I hope no controllers will be broken playing it).

New element implemented is named 'bouncing charged light' and it's only element which can kill player, adding more of arcade to this puzzle game.
