maze3dflyer is:

An OpenGL graphics demo/game. It generates a random 3D maze with some configurable properties, and displays the maze using textured 3D graphics. You can "fly" through and around the maze using standard movement controls.

News

• 2009/10/30: released v1.5.4 (minor feature release)
• added pictures on walls (just Mona Lisa for now)
• 2009/10/29: released v1.5.3 (minor feature release)
• fixed  issue #4 , problem with going forward and sideways at the same time
• 2009/10/23: released v1.5.2 (minor feature release)
• added keys to adjust key/mouse sensitivity
• 2009/10/23: released v1.5.1 (bug fix release)
• Full screen mode toggle now works (textures reload).
• 2009/06/12: released v1.5
• Show maze as it's being generated (fun to watch). Blue = the queue of cells from which the maze is to expand. Red = cells that are marked "forbidden" for growth because they are too close to other passages.
• Rather than just finding the route from entrance to exit, you now need to collect all the white balls on the way. More challenging.
• See-through grates give some visibility in/out of maze.
• Many other tweaks.
• Let me know what you think!

• 2008/10/16: released v1.1
• Show solution route (toggle via 'R' key)
• Using this on a level disallows recording a new best score on that level.
• Auto-forward (toggle via 'Q' key) so you don't have to hold down 'W'.
• Note that SHIFT still toggles slow & fast modes, independently of 'Q'.
• Some other refactoring and tweaks.

• 2008/10/16: created Wiki page FeatureWishlist.
