# Voxl
Meet Voxl, a highly optimized infinite procedural voxel terrain generating thing in written in Python.
## Features
- Infinite terrain with no bounds in any axis. (yes, no height limit!)
- OpenSimplex-based terrain generation with caves (very wip)
- Terrain is just stone for now, multiple materials coming soon.
## Usage
Install the [Nix](https://nixos.org/) Package Manager:
```bash
$ sh <(curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -L https://nixos.org/nix/install) --daemon
```
Clone this repo and `cd` into it:
```bash
git clone https://n3rdium/Voxl.git voxl
cd voxl
```
Enter nix shell (this will "install" all deps for you):
```bash
nix-shell
```
Now, to start Voxl, run:
```bash
python src/main.py
```
## Controls
```
Move Forward : W
Move Left : A
Move Backward : S
Move Right : D
Move Up : space
Move Down : shift
Sprint : ctrl
Lock mouse : L
Unlock mouse : esc
```
