3DMaze -- Maze Game
Version 1.5 (1/28/96)
Generate and solve mazes under Windows 95.
The mazes are displayed in three dimensions. 22222m1216w
Select "Action" on the menu bar to get a "New" maze, "Solve" a maze, or
"Clear" the solution from the maze.
Except for minimizing and restoring the 3DMaze window, resizing the window
results in a new maze. Larger windows yield mazes with more rooms.
The vertical scroll bar can be used to change the tilt of the maze.
Select "Options" on the menu bar. Select "Parameters" to use scroll bars
to adjust the length, thickness, or height of the walls. Or, select "Style" to
pick "Square rooms" or "Hexagonal rooms".
After a maze with square rooms is drawn, you can use the arrow keys to
solve it. After a maze with hexagonal rooms is drawn, you can use the Home,
Up Arrow, PgUp, End, Down Arrow, and PgDn keys to solve it. If those keys
are layed out on your numeric keypad as follows:
Home Up Arrow PgUp
End Down Arrow PgDn
the direction of movement in the window will correspond to the direction of
the key from "5" on the keypad. Note that the up and down arrows revert to
controlling the scroll bar after a maze is solved.
Each maze has exactly one solution that does not involve backtracking
(passing through a doorway more than once).
The Visual Basic 4.0 source code is included with this application. I,

bar for information about distributing this application, etc.
