Cool !
In the next version why not bringing difficulty in next levels ?
Some simple ideas :
- Ennemies (why not 3D retpr style) !
- A sword gaining power by collecting gems
- Shield (collectable fragments to increase it)
- Bonus Goal like collect all special gems to have a bonus
at the end : more Xp or components to upgrade shield or life.
- Keys like in Doom also ?

So you would have the main goal that is exit the level !
And side quest goals like upgrading the sword and shield !

It could turn FPS why not : Armor and Gun !


Just ideas !
Keep it up !

Ah yes artistic work. Maybe I could improve it a bit but generally my modeling and level design skills are very amature. The most complicated model I have made was the starbase in wicked starbase defense. Also I avoid detailed models and especially animations. If u look at my games none of them focus on graphic and none of them have premade levels. Maybe I need to partner with an artist. But until then don't expect to much as far as graphics.

And quad hit the nail on the head with the goal of the game.

@mercurus - goodies sound like a good idea. I started with the flag and speed blocks. Coins are a good idea and I was also thinking doors or secret passages.

I wAs also thinking of a level generator but I'm not sure where to begin.

Thx for the comments

@ratchet - thx those are a bunch of great ideas. I'll keep them in mind and see what i can do

Well for generated level, if you have ot place some
bonus, gems, monsters on some squarred level piece,
it's perhaps better to do it manually ? or make
your simple level editor ?
or simply make the level described in a text file (AUM 53) ?

For design, i mean simple things, for example some colored lines on walls, or retro texture like wall 8 bit texture ?
Or make some 3D things like pipes on some walls, or a 3D Candle
or anything else ? Be inspired by Doom or Castle Wolfenstein ?
OR something more Killer 7 ?


Keep it up !

generated maze game

ha very nice maze. i just won finally and then the tiny picture of the code came up and i was starting to think you were crazy there is no way to read that. but i figured it out. nice maze game i enjoyed it. ill give a look at the code and see if i can use it for my game. thx a lot mercuryus!

as far as my 3D wicked maze game goes, i have made some good progress and there are a lot of new goodies. i cant wait for you guys to play it ill upload it this weekend

Well here is the latest version of the game. Wicked 3D Maze V1.3
now with
-Doors
-Keys
-Coins
-Cost Doors
-Reset
-Secret Doors

-Up to 20 levels
-10 premade levels

ESC now brings you to level 1 which is the menu
where there is an exit box that you can click on
to quit the game.

more to come. some ideas include
- Brakeable wall
- TNT
- Enemies
- Lives
- Weapons
- An ultimate Goal with levels that can not be changed. this would of course include an area where you can still play levels you made. that would not alter the overall story/ game.

I have made a lot of progress to this game. The structure of the game is now like a game. in the sense that as you progress through the levels it gets harder. once you beat level 5,10,15 you are given a shortcut back to thoes levels in the menu level. you can save and load your progress. i have added some more goodies that i hope you all enjoy. the game levels are now stored in the code and can not be changed. however i have added a special place to create and play your own levels.

I hope you enjoy it please let me know of any bugs and your opinion of the game. thanks
