Hellmaze

Get Ready to Scream.

Welcome to Hellmaze, a terrifying 3D horror maze experience designed to push your nerves to the brink! Trapped within a sprawling, dimly lit labyrinth, your only goal is survival. But you're not alone. Sinister animatronics patrol the twisting corridors, their mechanical eyes fixed on your demise.

Every shadow hides a threat, and every corner could be your last. Your life depends on your wits, your speed, and your ability. Will you escape the clutches of Hellmaze and find the exit, or become just another forgotten piece in their twisted game?

Hellmaze was made in under 2 weeks for Pizza Doggy's Horror Jam #1.

Features:

• Pulsating Terror: Navigate a procedurally generated maze, where no two playthroughs are exactly alike. Every venture into the maze is a fresh nightmare.
• Relentless Pursuers: Evade menacing animatronics that react to your presence. Get too close, and your precious health will dwindle.
• The Power of the Light: When cornered, unleash a flash of your light (by pressing F) to temporarily scare off your pursuers. But choose your moments wisely – your light has a crucial cooldown.
• Life or Death Decisions: With limited lives, every encounter is a high-stakes gamble. Do you risk a close shave for a shortcut, or play it safe and extend your chances of survival?
• Immersive Atmosphere: Dive into a chilling 3D environment with unsettling sounds and oppressive darkness that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Hints for Survival:

• Listen Closely: Pay attention to the sounds of the maze. The animatronics often announce their presence before you see them.
• Conserve Your Flashlight: Your light is a powerful tool, but its cooldown is long. Don't waste it on minor threats. Save it for when an animatronic is truly closing in, or to create a crucial escape window.
• Learn the Layout (or adapt quickly): While the maze is procedural, understanding how it generally flows can help you plan your escape routes. Use your flares to keep track of it all and try to trap the enemies in dead ends.
• Keep Moving: Lingering in one spot makes you an easy target. But running wildly might lead you into another trap. Find your balance.
• Don't Panic: It's easier said than done, but a clear head is your best weapon. Think before you act, especially when deciding to scream or to run.

Can you outsmart the animatronics and find your way out of the Hellmaze before it's too late?
