Hex Tactics Tech Demo
A tech demo featuring hexagonal grid based maps that are randomly generated and three units that are able to traverse the map.
Full list of features implemented:
- Dynamic hexagonal grid creation
- Different tile types, including movement costs and traversability
- Perlin noise based map generation
- Unit and tile selection
- Camera movement and rotation
- Modified Dijkstra's Algorithm based pathfinding utilizing a custom PriorityQueue
- Arrows showing a units path through the map
- Turn limited movements
Full source code is available on my GitHub.

What's the purpose?
Probably to help game designers that would like to implement this functionality in their own work?
It's a tech demo which, from Wikipedia, "is a prototype, rough example, or an otherwise incomplete version of a conceivable product or future system..."
I started working on this with intent to make a game, but due to various issues I was unable to turn it into a game with any objectives. So instead of just throwing it all away I published what I had into a tech demo to show off what I did accomplish.
