The purpose of the broad-phase is to very quickly check if an object *might* be touching another object. Then, once we know that an object might be touching another object, we can do a more expensive and accurate test.

There are a few different ways to do this. The only way that Bonk currently implements is the *spatial hash* technique. There are a few different ways to do this. The only way that Bonk currently implements is the *spatial hash* technique.
There are advantages and drawbacks to spatial hashing. The main drawback is that it does not handle objects of wildly varying size very well. I do not currently have time to implement alternatives to spatial hashing, but this project is free software... if you would like to contribute a BSP implementation, for example, I would be overjoyed!
