The Minotaur's puzzle
A classic grid-based puzzle game about escaping rooms while avoiding a minotaur. Move through the labyrinth and solve the classic puzzles to escape.
Controls:
- Arrow Keys : Move the main character
- Space : Wait
- Backspace / U : Undo move
- Return / E : Go through stairs and traps
- R : Restart current level
What is it: This is a classic puzzle game named "Theseus and the Minotaur". Note that most of the levels are taken from this and/or this.
Context: I have made a first version of this game alone in a week as a study. I had several ideas to polish it, so I took another week to try different things. I still have things that I wanted to do, so I might do a second and even more thoughtful version.
Note and Credit: The last image (used in the victory screen) was made by the generative AI "dall.E". I wanted to do it myself, but I was missing time in the end... The music was made by my brother, everything else is done by me (with some moral and artistic support of my friend Culdesac).
