Simple and addictive. Felt like the classic 80s home computer video games right down to the aesthetic (but fortunately had a much higher framerate!)

The way it works is that the left side of the sub is checked with the individual sides of the left wall, and the right side is checked with the sides of the right wall. For optimization, only the lines of the wall that are at the same Y-level as the sub are checked.
As for actually calculating collisions, i used the line collision algorithm provided by the olc utils 2d geometry library.

I appreciate that you like it! The trench is actually a bunch of lines connected to each other, and as the submarine falls down, new lines are generated. All lines have as a start point the end of the previous line, and as an end point a random point along an arc of 160 degrees downwards. The lines are also set to only be within a certain horizontal range, and those ranges slowly shift as you descend, making the trench also slowly shift
