## What it is
A non-Euclidean rendering engine for 3D scenes written in C++ with OpenGL, targeting Windows. It ships with several demo rooms that showcase impossible-space effects like portals and warped geometry.

## Use cases
- render non-euclidean 3d scenes
- explore portal-based impossible spaces in a demo
- learn how non-euclidean rendering works in opengl
- experiment with warped 3d room geometry
- build a game with non-euclidean level design

## When to choose
- you want to see or prototype non-euclidean/impossible-space rendering on Windows
- you need a small C++ OpenGL codebase to study for portal-style effects

## When to avoid
- you need a production game engine or cross-platform support
- you want a maintained library with an API rather than a demo application

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: maintenance
- function: graphics, game-engine, simulation
- domain: graphics, simulation
- platform: windows, cpp
- tags: opengl, non-euclidean-geometry, 3d-rendering, demo, game-development, desktop
