A hitscan is a tool often used in video games, to detect collisions between any character that a player might control, and a target that the player might aim at.
This short code written in C demonstrates a working example of a hitscan.
The code is written on top of the raylib library. The raylib library is a small lightweight library written entirely in C to help encourage video game programming. Instructions on how to compile raylib can be found on the raylib wiki.
