Hi Josh, In a game like Shades of Doom that would require a bit of higher math such as Trigonometry and Geometry to perform basic calculations such as distance and direction to other game objects such as enemies, walls, special items, etc. Even though Shades of Doom is a 2d environment not 3d you still will need to calculate the trajectory of things like bullets as they travel from your gun to the enemy target or other objects in the room. There is not really a good way to avoid higher mathematics in a game like that.
Cheers!
