# Heligoland
A 4-player naval combat game built with raylib and C++.
## About
Heligoland is a local multiplayer battleship game where up to 4 players command warships in naval combat. Players without controllers are controlled by AI.
## Features
- 4-player local multiplayer with gamepad support
- AI opponents for empty player slots
- Realistic ship physics with throttle and rudder controls
- 4 turrets per ship with independent aiming and firing arcs
- Wind system affecting smoke and shell trajectories
- Damage system with visual smoke effects
- Explosion and water splash effects
- Bubble wake trails behind moving ships
## Controls
Each player uses a gamepad:
- **Left Stick Y** - Throttle (forward/reverse)
- **Left/Right Stick X or Triggers** - Rudder (turn left/right)
- **Right Stick** - Aim crosshair
- **Any Button** - Fire
Ships without a connected gamepad are controlled by AI.
## Gameplay
- Each ship has 1000 HP
- Shells deal 100 damage per hit
- Ship collisions deal damage based on impact speed
