The Maze Where The Minotaur Lives

4 years ago

I've added maps to The Maze Where The Minotaur Lives. Plus a few other changes.


In the Update

  • New Feature - Maps! Find it in the maze.

  • New Maze Sizes - "Huge" and "Impossible".

  • Watch your step. There are lots more pits to fall into.

  • The results screen now tracks the number of chests opened instead of stones.

  • Fixed shadows not appearing.

  • Small gameplay, art, and sound improvements.

I finally have a bit more time again, so I've added some changes I've been wanting to make thanks to some feedback.

@Squid1nc suggested mazes to be 1000 times bigger. So I've added "Huge" and "Impossible" sizes.

The new map should help with navigating the much larger mazes, making it easier to keep track of where you've been without getting too lost.

Just try not to hold it up all the time once you find it. You might regret it.

I'm also currently working on a new project. I'll still come back to The Maze Where The Minotaur Lives from time to time, but I'm taking what I've learned here and stepping it up a notch.

If you want to know what it's about, follow me. I'll be posting works in progress pretty soon.

A quick Content Creator shout-out to these cool people.

Next up

After a couple of weeks of polish and tweaks, The Maze Where The Minotaur Lives is now ready to play. Have fun!

Unity's Scriptable Rendering Pipeline no longer supports in-built Lens Flares, so I wrote my own.

An infected crew member of a doomed Space-something.

Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.

I was testing if I could push the butterflies away when running into them. So I turned the particle emitter all the way up. One million butterflies may have been a little too much.

Happy Video Game Day!

July 8 is Video Game Day, a holiday that's obviously close to our hearts at Game Jolt.

Celebrate by completing our quests! They won't be around long, so get the rewards while you can.

I'm adding a new item to let you cheat! THE PEGASUS BOOTS. WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Added a Minotaur Statue that has a secret compartment hiding the key. You'll need to find the shiny red gems to open it if you ever want to escape the maze. All done with a little whack from your new arms.

@ryon is a Jolter to Watch, game dev, programmer, and artist who worked on Five Nights at Friedrich's! Follow @ryon before the quest ends on July 15 and you'll get Coins!

Been experimenting with post-processing effects in SRP, adding an outline and a painterly depth of field effect. There's also a new HUD to keep track of items picked up and how many lives you have left!
