MazeConnect v1.4 - puzzle prototype (iPad only)

[Dav]

I've created a MazeDesign program to allow users to easily create their own mazes for the MazeConnect game. Also added support for putting Blocks in mazes, and changed the maze game to accept those. Mazes designed in the designer will only work in v1.2, not the previous maze game versions. I have rewritten the setmaze routine, so the game is changed a lot now. Re-download the new game version to use with the new maze designer.

Check first post for the new game version, and the MazeDesign program and its screenshot.

MazeConnect keeps getting better and better. Are you sure it is still free?

LOl. I've never programmed anything worthy of selling. I just like to make things. It's fun having a programming challenge. However, i would like to try putting some apps up in the App Store. I think I could polish up a few games and stick them up. Don't know where to begin doing that though. I don't have a mac yet to learn Xcode.

This game has been updated one last time, and is finished - I'm getting kind of tired of it.

There are 10 levels, and current game progress is saved in mazeconnect.dat so you can start where you left off. There's a title screen now with game reset if you ever want to start over. The code is very messy and unorganized, but the game seems to work ok. My wife says it gets old quick and is kind of boring. Oh well...it was fun to make.

Updated game to play faster on older devices by redoing the way the game board is updated. Now, only buttons that have been changed are re-drawn, not the whole board every time one piece is rotated. This greatly increases game play on my older iPad, making it very playable now. This technique clears the way for larger grids to be used now.

This only thing left to do is make the game all devices compatible and put a YOU WIN screen after the last maze is solved.
