how to make a 3d racing game without using any 3d library like opengl ?. the answer is by using pseudo 3d road technique. pseudo 3d road was a very used rendering technique in the golden age of arcade games (80's and 90's) when machines couldn't render true 3d. arcade hits such outrun (sega) used this technique. it is a mixture between raycasting and floorcasting, so I have used my raycasting + floorcasting engine's code to do it, and I have named it "roadcaster". I have used this tutorials as starting point for developing my own pseudo 3d road engine: http://www.extentofthejam.com/pseudo/ https://codeincomplete.com/posts/javascript-racer-v1-straight/ enjoy!!
