Dead Stroke

Description 

Dead Stroke is 8-ball pool with a real physics engine underneath — not a ball-rolling approximation. Cue ball squirt, throw on the object ball, spin-dependent cushion rebound, side pockets that reject a bad entry angle: all of it is simulated, all of it is the same code that will referee online matches later.

It is free, and it stays free. No ads, no energy timers, no pay-to-win cue that sinks balls straighter than yours.

This build has:

• Full 8-ball against a bot (three difficulties) or a friend on one machine
• Practice mode with no rules and no pressure
• Aim projection with four assist levels — off, up to full path prediction
• Real English/spin control, draggable power, orbit and behind-cue cameras
• English and Turkish

Not in yet: online multiplayer (that's next), and the UI is still programmer-grade. The physics is the part that's finished.
