aMAZ3

This is the remastered version of my scenario "aMAZE": You are spawned inside of a maze and have to find yourself to the green target.

Controls:
WASD/Arrow keys - Movement
EQ - Straving
Shift - Sprint

The mazes are randomly generated - they are always possible. The algorithm to generate the mazes is the same as in the initial version, but about everything else has changed.

The rendering is done using a sort-of 2D self-written ray-tracer. This means, that the image is rendered by shooting many rays from the players point of view and testing where they hit.

Performance is WAY BETTER OFFLINE. I strongly recommend you to download the game and play it in the application as there more advanced techniques such as multi-threading is used. Also, resolution scaling is lowered for online, so the image will be a lot sharper offline.

Since I lost the challenge, I had to say this as it's a dare given by Jhonath

Thank you. Why do you mean the fps cap was a problem?

I mean to prevent 3d game from lagging on platform like greenfoot would be difficult for you

Oh I see. Online, yes performance is always bad. But offline Greenfoot has a very small performance penalty. The main way of optimizing this is to improve the raycasting algorithm. I am working on running on the GPU, and on using a „bounding volume hierarchy“ which groups walls in the same area into groups so not all have to be tested.
