A C++17 CPU ray tracer featuring pinhole‑camera ray generation, sphere/cylinder/triangle intersections, recursive lighting, Schlick Fresnel blending, shadow rays, async render worker, and interactive vs. full‑quality render modes. Rendering is performed on the GPU with OpenGL.
A fully interactive Solar System renderer built in C++20 with OpenGL, implementing hierarchical transforms, instanced GPU geometry, orbit kinematics, pick-buffer selection, advanced Earth materials, and real-time animation controls.
Implements a full curve and surface modeling tool with GPU tessellation, interactive editing, orbit camera controls, and multiple rendering modes.
Implements the complete Pirate Game using OpenGL 3.3, including player/enemy movement, cannonball physics, UI text, and shader-based transformations.
Implements Sierpiński, Menger, Koch, Hilbert, and Tree fractals with real-time rendering, per-vertex colour interpolation, and interactive controls.
Explore a C++-powered molecular dynamics application that calculates bond stretching, angle bending, Lennard-Jones and Coulomb forces to simulate water molecule formation in real time, with live parameter tuning via ImGui.
This post unpacks XII FlyBird: project goals, architecture, procedural pipelines, performance optimizations, gameplay mechanics, technical challenges, and next steps.
Explore the architecture, core features, and roadmap of the XII Engine, a modern multi-platform engine built with C++23.
Core C++ library powering VisionEngine’s rendering pipeline with modular ECS and editor integration.
