Small direction change & comments

This is a small update, it adds no functionality. However as of this update the program contains desprictive comments about how the different tasks are being achived, so navigating the project is doable without the use of the documentation, if one is familiar with the workings of the engine. These comments do not replace the documentation! It is still advised that you refer back to the documentation for questions about the engine.

Another thing that has changed was the direction of the project. This was due to the fact that I enroled into a computer science degree. More information about this change can be found in the introduction of the documentation.

A small ASCII graphical game engine for the windows console (and also Linux) done in C++.

Features:

• Real time 8 directional player movement
• Binary shading
• Map and field of view editors

Linux port!?

Thanks to a mysterious benefactor named SuperFola the engine was ported to Linux! Other than this port, he also did a few quality of life changes, such as more readable code. This update was made entirelly by him, so go and check his github out out!
