What's The Labyrinth?

Smooth scrolling pseudo-3D game? You bet!

The Labyrinth is my first-person, pseudo-3D, action game. This game is the new installment of my original Labyrinth game made a few years back. You can download the original along with demos of the newer versions.

The game is not a raycaster. It's a tile-based world and the 3D views are drawn using stored sprites, similar to the game series, The Legend of Lith, by DarkDread, though I did not borrow the idea from his game.

The Labyrinth will feature two game modes: A "Race" mode and a "Battle" mode. In the "Race" mode, players try to find the exit of the maze first. What makes this interesting is that you have guns that you can use to freeze opponents in their tracks.

The "Battle" mode is somewhat like a multiplayer Doom or Quake game. But this time, you win by scoring points, which is based on how many direct hits you shoot against other players.

The maze will also contain scattered items that when picked, will give you certain advantages (or disadvantages) =}.

Download the latest Labyrinth demo—now playable!

You can download three versions of the game: The original game (written a few years back) and two versions of the new one. The original version is completely playable, but it contains a few aesthetic bugs which I'm no longer fixing.

The older of the two newer versions was written last April-May 1998. Then I decided to rewrite the engine. The result is the latest version which features a better interface and a more efficient engine.

I'll release the source code when I finish the game and not before.
