Description

Hedge Maze is a 3D maze game created as a final project for Professor Zoe Wood's CPE 471 class. In this game, players progress through a hedge maze until they can find the flag pole at the end of the maze.

In addition to creating their own mazes, users may specify coins throughout the map. When a maze contains coins, the maze starts out dark, and gets progressively lighter as coins are collected.

Features

• Phong shading from light source over the middle of the maze.
• Mazes can be loaded in as ASCII text files.
• Textures throughout the entire maze.
• Coins which increase the light output of the light source.
• Collision detection.
• Minimap in upper corner of screen which follows the user.
• Cheats!
