SpaceSim is a 3D space simulation project that offers an immersive experience with realistic planetary models, stunning visual effects, and an intuitive user interface.
- Navigate through the vastness of space with smooth and responsive camera controls.
- Rotate, zoom, and pan to explore planets and celestial objects from different perspectives.
- Planets are modeled with attention to detail, featuring scaled down but relatively accurate sizes, textures, and orbital mechanics.
- Experience a close approximation of planetary systems.
- Enhance the visual appeal with a bloom effect that adds a soft glow to bright objects, creating a cinematic experience.
- Immerse yourself in a breathtaking space environment with a high-quality skybox featuring stars, nebulae, and galaxies.
- Interact with the simulation using a clean and user-friendly graphical interface built with IMGUI.
- Adjust settings, toggle features, and monitor simulation parameters with ease.
- Clone the repository and build the project.
- Configure the makefile and the imports to the libraries needed (GLFW, GLEW, GLM, imgui, and stb_image)
- Run
makeand launch the application to begin exploring the solar system.
Enjoy your journey through the cosmos!
