This is a random maze generator tool made for GameMaker Studio 1.4 and 2.0. It currently has the following features:
3 algorithms for maze generation:
Recursive Backtracking
Prim
Growing Tree
Add/remove border
Add/remove entrances on all 4 sides of the maze
Control width and height separately
Supports different tile sizes
Fits into room size
Limitations:
Width and height must be odd numbers
Room width/height aspect ratio must be the same one as the maze*
The tool is composed of 3 scripts (one for each algorithm) and some macros. In the project below there will be additional content, as tiles, objects and rooms, in order to provide examples on how to use the scripts.
More info in the Instructions section.
*This only applies if you are not using views and wish the maze to take the whole room without looking stretched
INSTRUCTIONS
Coming soon.
Maybe.
CREDITS
This project was developed completely by me, but it was made possible through these tutorials:
HeartBeast's Random Level Generation in Youtube
Jamis Buck's blog on Maze Algorithms
Future Updates
Create a documentation/instruction document to better explain the contents of the project
Any feedback/criticism is welcome. I'm available for questions if you have any.
