LiDAR Prototype

This game was created for a school project.
Due to the state of the project and the date of delivery, the file downloaded here is only a backup, far from the original ambition, and does not represent the efforts that have been put into this project. But it's better than nothing, and you can be sure that the project will continue and be updated on itch.

What is this game?
# Controls :
* mouse / right joystick : look around
* WASD / left joystick : move around
* left click / right trigger : use scanner
* shift / left joystick click : add speed (a bug that became a temporary feature)

# Backup project (published here):
* Fully supported keyboard and gamepad controls. Use of the gamepad is recommended for the best experience.

* A simple technical demo, my attempt to implement LiDAR mechanics.

* The environment is invisible, and only the points projected by the player's scanner can be used to draw the map's geometry.

* A test map to explore, but nothing special. It was a development map.

# The project (broken right now, can't publish it today) :
the following describes the advances in the current project that I was able to implement, but which are not published here due to problems encountered during the build:
* HUGE performance optimization thanks to Unity's DOTS technology. LiDAR points are entirely managed by the ECS system, while operations are optimized by the Burst and Jobs packages. I was able to reach 350,000 points rendered in real time at 120fps, I stopped the experiment because I got bored of waiting.
* Dynamic coloring of LiDAR points to facilitate understanding of the terrain and provide beautiful visual effects.

* Animated character

* An early map with a polished environment.

Hopefully coming soon
