This is our second official release.

Thing we fixed:

  • The game is now playable from anywhere in the world, not just on the MSU campus. We relocated our host from the firewalled host on campus to a public host so anyone can login from anywhere.
  • The game no longer renders in wireframe/debugging mode. So no more weird circle thing or dark, hard-to-see green walls.
  • New and demo users will see an instructions screen that explains how to play the game.

Things we didn't fix:

  • Mazes are still not randomly generated. We are going to keep them fixed for this release and will probably allow them to randomize in the next one.

Things that have yet to come to pass:

  • When Challenges are played, they don't disappear or otherwise alert the player who sent you the challenge that you ever even played it. There is a lot of room for improvement here.
  • We considered adding a visible clock at one point, and that might be something we get to eventually, after we gauge interest in it.
  • It's been requested that we have a "remember me" ability so that users don't have to log in every time they play on a single device. We agree that this is ideal and will be working towards this.

This is our first official release.

Here are a few problems we are aware of and will be changing in upcoming releases:
This version of the game still has locked seeds so the maze isn't random each time.
You can only create an account and log in from inside the MSU network.
The game still renders walls in wireframe/debugging mode.

Here's an update! We've been hard at work making the interface even better. The biggest change is the method of control for the player in the maze. Now instead of moving the player around in the maze, the maze moves around the player. This makes the game much easier to play on mobile devices and allows us to generate even larger mazes.
We hope you enjoy our latest efforts!

This is the first alpha preview of our DCSP project with the working title "The A_MAZE_ing Game" since it's about solving mazes.

Currently, it's very non-functional. It is possible to have the player move through the maze and the game will recognize that you have completed the maze by exiting the level.
Login and registration are tied to a server that you have to be behind a VPN to access, so these aren't going to work for anyone who isn't a dev on this project until we find a new serverspace to host the web side of this.
