Hi.
 
Been very interested in game development and wanted to write my own Wolf 3D on AutoIt.

Looks very cool! I'm curious to see how you want to implement textures with GDI+. ;)

Btw, long time ago Eukalyptus coded a prototype of 3D Wolfenstein with textures -> Prototype 3D Wolfenstein in AutoIt (video only)!

Anticipating Errors :  "Any program that accepts data from a user must include code to validate that data before sending it to the data store. You cannot rely on the data store, ...., or even your programming language to notify you of problems. You must check every byte entered by your users, making sure that data is the correct type for its field and that required fields are not empty."
