🎮 Bouncing Balls in a Rotating Hexagon 📌 Overview This Python project simulates two bouncing balls inside a rotating hexagon using Pygame. The balls interact with the hexagon's moving walls, affected by gravity, friction, and realistic collisions.
The project demonstrates: ✅ Physics Simulation – Realistic gravity, friction, and bouncing behavior. ✅ Dynamic Environment – The hexagon rotates, affecting ball movement. ✅ Collision Mechanics – Walls and balls respond naturally to interactions. ✅ Smooth Animations – Optimized rendering with Pygame.
🔹 Ideal for game physics enthusiasts, Python developers, and those learning Pygame & simulation mechanics.
🚀 Features
🎯 Realistic Ball Movement – Gravity & friction slow balls down over time.
🔄 Rotating Hexagon – The walls constantly move, making physics more challenging.
🏀 Wall Collisions – Balls bounce off moving walls with proper angle reflections.
⚙️ Optimized Performance – Smooth animations with vector math.
🎨 Object-Oriented Code – Easy to modify and extend.
