Procedural Terrain
This project showcases a non-interactive terrain generator capable of creating natural-looking environments, including trees, grass, mountains, snow, beaches, lakes/ponds, clouds, and hills. The generator leverages Perlin noise for smooth, realistic transitions and an isometric viewpoint for a stylized aesthetic.
