Window Maze 2.0: Taking A Maze Game To The Next Level
« on: December 14, 2010, 04:05:33 pm »
So, I have almost everything in place for Window Maze 2.0, the next release of Window Maze.
The keypress detection has been sped up exponentially, the random maze generator is almost in place, and the graphics are set for once and for all.
Await this anxiously; it will be the best 2D maze ever created. No lies.

Interesting, how will be the graphics? Will it be tilemap-based or will it be just a maze pic where walls are 1x1 pixels? Also how is randomizing being done? Is it in BASIC?

Alright, here you go.
@DJ Omnimaga:
    It's Axe and it's awesome. The walls are 1 pixel apart. I can't tell you about my secret algorithm, though. Not yet.

@aeTIos:
    Sort of.

wow!  I really like the flashlight concept, I just beat it, using the random, but it is very challenging!  A quick suggestion, how hard would it be to make the flashlight a circle instead of a square?  might look more realistic.

agreed, I really like the use of greyscale.  does it use the same algorithm as the one used by a member here a while ago that he found on Wikipedia? (I think)

EDIT:  I just thought, making it a circle would just require a couple of quarter circle sprites using Pt-Mask, right?

I created my own algorithm. I'll let you see the code in a PM. Don't post it; this is a secret algorithm. :)

I just tried to go down and right.  ;)  and judging by The the Game game, I think there is more than one way to get there.  ;)
someone try to beat my highscore on Random!  (Since you can memorize the presets)

In response to a few bugs and Yunhua's comment about a circle, here's the edited version.
@Yunhua: Would you mind making another screenie for me showing the bugfixes? Then I'll upload it to Ticalc.
