Flappy (Raylib + C)

A simple reimplementation of Flappy Bird built using low-level C and the raylib library.
This project was created to understand game development fundamentals from scratch—without relying on heavy game engines.

About the Project

This project focuses on learning how games actually work under the hood:

• Game loop (Init → Update → Draw)
• Frame-independent movement using delta time
• Basic physics (gravity & jump mechanics)
• Dynamic obstacle generation (pipes)
• Modular code structure with headers and source files

The goal was not to build a polished game, but to build a strong foundation in low-level game development.
