THEY SAID IT COULDN'T BE DONE
BUT I SHOWED THEM ALL
REAL
TIME
RAYTRACING
to be clear this is about 75 different kinds of fake
it is TECHNICALLY doing sort-of-accelerated ray-primitive intersections instead of marching or rasterization though, so it does sorta actually meet the definition
also the reflections aren't traced it's just an environment map lol
you can't call anything raytracing unless there's chrome though
WELCOME TO BLORP ZONE
Update: I appear to have encountered some sort of Computer Graphics
I wish my code worked
btw if you want all your rendering bugs to look totally intentional You Too can use stereographic projection
