The Maze Heist by Huskitch

made by Huskitch for LD25 (COMPO)

You play as a villainous robber, trying to steal from the national goat treasury!

This is my 4-5th attempt at a game this weekend, and the best.
I used a texture file to store the map/data and collisions and it worked out pretty well!

I'm only getting 5-6 FPS.

Is it just me or is the maze impossible to get through?!?!?! I wandered for minutes! I like how the robot gets an electric shock when he touches the walls. It's like life-size Operation.

I really like your main character sprite. The FPS was fine for me.

The noise when you touch the wall quickly becomes annoying.
Also, your character moves way too slow which - coupled with the constant backtracking needed in the maze - makes the game pretty tedious after a while.
I liked the drawings, though.

Unfortunately I can't run it. "LDHoarde.exe encountered a problem and must close" (It's actually german, so I don't know how exactly it is in english) upon double-click.

Can you recompile this with the "Reach" XNA profile? That way it can run on DX9 setups, not just ones with DX11. Thanks!

I can see the effort but it just fell flat. Also, seemed like the maze was unsolvable despite spending ten minutes mapping all of the explorable paths in another window.
