🧱 Simple Minecraft Clone (C++ + OpenGL)

This project is a basic Minecraft-style voxel engine built using C++, OpenGL, GLFW, GLAD, and GLM. It features chunk-based terrain generation, player movement with gravity and jumping, basic collision detection, and textured cube rendering using a texture atlas.

🎮 Features Implemented

✅ Chunk-Based World

• Each chunk is a 16×16×16 3D array of blocks.
• Procedural terrain generated with a sinusoidal heightmap.

✅ Block Rendering

• Blocks are rendered as cubes using indexed vertex data (VBO + EBO).
• Texture atlas support using UV mapping for multiple block types (grass, dirt, stone, etc.).

✅ Camera & Movement

• FPS-style camera using glm::lookAt.
• Mouse-look support via GLFW cursor callback.
• WASD movement.
• Space to jump.

✅ Gravity & Collision

• Gravity is applied every frame.
• Player will fall until they hit the ground.
• Collision is calculated by checking the block below the player’s feet.
• Snaps camera to the top of the block on landing.

✅ Texture Support

• Textures loaded using stb_image.
• Mipmaps enabled for better visual quality at a distance.

🚀 How to Run

1. Make sure you have a C++17-compatible compiler.
2. Install GLFW, GLAD, GLM, stb_image.
3. Link OpenGL libraries.
4. Build and run:

   g++ main.cpp -lglfw -lGL -ldl -lX11 -lpthread -lm -o minecraft
   ./minecraft
