Interactive 3D ASCII scenes

Woke up this morning feeling quite crappy. Then saw this. All faith in humanity (And the internet) has been restored. Thank you! [On a sidenote: How would one go about learning to build this? Any learning resources on understanding all the math and physics behind this?]

This was built through incremental edits from a Python proof-of-concept, which you can see here: https://github.com/yeahpython/ascii-renderer/blob/master/fun... It doesn't have any real physics, but reading through it might help reveal how the rendering works.

For the physics, I'm basically colliding against a grid of tiles, so this might be a helpful tutorial to do the same: https://jonathanwhiting.com/tutorial/collision/
