I am trying to recreate a small scene where you can stand and watch a crowd of birds move around you. For this, I am using Boids Algorithm which I have heard come up hear and there over the last few years.
This is a resource that I am finding useful
I'm building it using C and Raylib which is a direction I think I want to move more towards to build up a better understanding of how games work at a lower level. I'm also not using copilot because efficiency isn't the goal here, its learning.
So far the experience has been good! Would love a bit of a foreach iterator right now because the amount of iterating over arrays is creating a fair amount of typing but I can live with that.
My boid birds don't feel like birds yet. More like bouncing balls that slightly group up together but hopefully it will come together over the next few days.
