In next update with earlier announcement UI update and gamepad support will be added Extra Modes with.. ahem, BIG MAZE.
It's in 3x larger than usual maze. And looks pretty simple. Yeah, it's because that large maze showed 3 FPS at old machine [read laptop] and unstabel FPS [60-110] at modern. Even if i made several levels of LOD's. But hey now it's look kind of "retro" [i hope]. So right now it show near 30 fps at old machines and stable FPS at modern.
P.S. I'll add achievement as reward to all who completed this maze.
Project Maze Sale
Hai-hai!
This is your last chance to get game with discount, because after exit from EA, price will be increased. Not much, but i think, better get it while cheap ~_~
Oh yes update comming on this week to be honest, when i could get my laptop from work and test build [and fix errors if found]
Upcoming Patch
Hello and Hi!
Right now i'm working on full controller implementation, so for setting up custom Maze ID will be added numpad (temporary design).
Plus for future gameplay changes added new "setup screens" [mostly cosmetics thing]
Project Maze Fix
Hello~
Here is small patch:
Improved mazes look
Fixed "Endmaze rooms"
FPS-lock now smooth from 22 to 144 frames
About free DLC
Hey-hey, ppl.
Like i said, all DLC will be free. So i made ditribution page for them with first announcement and several screenshots.
Project Maze Hotfix
Hai-hai! Shortly:
Added Mouse Sensitivity
Removed FPS Settings in options menu. Right now it has open parameter and could be locked only by V-Sync->On. But i think, i'm gonna lock up parameter near 120 or 160 in next update.
Multiplayer map now locked at 60 FPS. [I hope this could help to fix lags]
Fixed some text lines.

Project Maze News
Good news! After some investigations i fixed performance issue.
(boost was from 80-120 fps with critical drops to >200-320 fps without critical drops at my PC). So now wich calm heart i'm gonna finish multiplayer maze (make cute starter points with auto doors :squirtyay: ) and fix all interface issues.
I'll try to push update before lunar sale (yes, i put discount -50% again).
Oh yes, i'm planning to take buld at my old laptop (spec=min on store page) and look at performance.
Project Maze Next Update Announcement
Hello dear maze runners!
I'm happy to announce about next update almost ready and on stage of inner testing. So, let me tell what inside :squirtheh:
1. Updated UI.
[I'm back to early simple version of UI form first build, but modified somewhere]
2. MULTIPLAYER [In current state it based on lobby-friend invite system and include one co-op map]
3. Enemies mode removed
[I'm really want players could complete maze with first try, but if player met dead end with enemy on his tail - this kind of impossible. But, anyway, it's not permanently and will be added as experimental mode soon or later]
4. Build
[Game was re-created from zero on last version of Unreal Engine. Right now it's
4.21, instead of 4.18. So i hope it could fix some performance problems]
More changes will be posted in patch note before release.
