This software creates mazes of different sizes and configurable appearance. It is designed for teachers and makers. It can save the output as printable sheets or bitmap images.

[how to show appreciation]

• I super appreciate getting some credit for the work, especially if you are printing a book of puzzles. Something like “puzzles created using Maze Maker software, by Dr Warren Creemers”.
• If you make something cool with it, I would love to see a photo/link.
• If you make a kids book or something like that, I’d really get a kick out of getting a free copy. Gestures like that make my day

Can it do large mazes, like really large mazes?… YES.

Limitations:

• Beta software (minor bugs to iron out, but quite usable)
• Smooth edges when wall width is set to 1 are buggy.
• Even line widths produce a better output.

What is done:

• Generates a valid maze.
• Appearance is configurable.
• Maze size is configurable.
• Printing is enabled (adjust blockSize to alter print output size)
• Zooming in, moving etc (few minor bugs still).
• Support for DPI / block size.

Next Release

• Bug fixes
• Support for graphical inserts
• Ascii output

Road Map

• Will probably combine this with other software I have written to create a puzzle creation suite.

Update:

I have tentatively started working (April 2019) on a online version of this software, to be open sourced.
