This is my first 3D "game". It is written in Go.

I always wanted to create a 3D game so this time I decided to dive in and create a little engine with a height map and sky box, two concepts that I knew in theory but had not written myself before.

I use no engine, all the code is written in pure Go, using my wrapper libraries for Direct3D9 and the Windows API.

What I am proud of besides managing to create a little 3D world is that you can build the game in one step (single build.bat script). It creates an executable that runs on all Windows versions from XP up, both 32 and 64 bit. The necessary PNG files are built into the EXE file so there are no dependencies whatsoever. This means that deployment is as easy as downloading and starting the EXE file.
