First stab at a 3D platformer - C/SDL/OpenGL

Very simple/early experiment. Made with the C programming language and the GL, glu and SDL APIs. Features lighting and AABB collisions. Kudos to the OpenGL.org site and wiki and to the many great OpenGL tutorials out there (e.g. NeHe's).

Nice. I've been reading up on opengl, but haven't put anything together(yet). Did you use vertex buffer objects? I'm really wanting to get something running like this using that and sdl 1.3

@Cephas1892 I haven't learnt about vertex buffer objects, so I guess no :). I use plain arrays to store vertex coordinates.

sorry about the medieval video quality

not bad... def take some inspiration from your work... might try something like this out myself at some point.
