I'm still playing with mazes. This time it's ouptut from a little
Euphoria program I made. It's a bmp file turned into an isosurface.
 I don't know if I'll ever finish the program. So far the only features
are variable height and width, variable hall width, adjustable
difficulty and bmp output. I had plans to make it output text files for
pov in a somewhat compressed format, but I haven't gotten that far yet.
 Questions and comments are always welcome.

An interesting concept, perhaps worth a few more cycles.

The weird camera distortion hurts this image, consider backing off and
reducing the angle.

Also your exit door doesn't seem to be open.

Other than that an interesting maze (I didn't try to solve it :-)

Is this at least a little harder?

It was harder, yes, but not *too* hard. It seems that your algorithm creates
mazes that can be divided into boxes, each of which have at least one
opening, and you need to travel through the boxes one at a time to get to
the next one. The boxes seem to always be joined at their corners.

Hmm, you're right. I think I can fix that 'box' problem...

Interesting approach.  Faster than my macros?

I don't know about your macros. The maze was generated using the Euphoria programming
language. Euphoria is pretty fast; the maze was already drawn by the time the monitor
changed
settings when I ran the program.
