Ascension

Ascension is a Spring 2018 COS426 (Computer Graphics) Final Project that features various filters/convolutions, raycasting, and collision schemes. It is a escape-the-prison type game in which the player must escape to the exit without getting caught by the guards. If you read the files, you will find that the player is named Lazuli (named after Lapis jewel). This project was created by Daniel Chae, Annie Chen, and Thomas Colen. We hope you enjoy the experience!
